We dance when e'er we're able
We do routines and parlour scenes
With footwork impecc-Able.
We dine well here in Camelot
We eat ham and jam and spam a lot…”
Welcome to the silly world of Camelot and the God-given quest to find the Holy Grail… only with Monty Python at the helm, you can sort of guess things won’t end well – but there will be plenty of laughs along the way.
Monty Python and the Holy Grail is our favourite movie of all time. This pattern, large in scale and months in the making, is our tribute to the film which never fails to make us laugh no matter how many times we watch it (and trust us, it’s a lot!)
Featuring King Arthur, his faithful Patsy, Sir Bedevere the Wise, Sir Lancelot the Brave, Sir Galahad the Pure, Sir Robin the Not-So-Brave-As-Sir-Lancelot, the Black Knight, the French Taunter, A Knight-Who-Says-Ni (with shrubbery!), the lovely Zoot, Tim the Enchanter, and a certain rabbit with big, nasty, pointy teeth – this large scale project will keep you busy (and giggling) while you contemplate the air-speed velocity of an un-laden swallow.
