::The consequence of this change, which I agree should have happened, is that the article contained a lot of information relevant to Monty Python, but not the ''Big Red Book''. I removed the now-extraneous information, but leave it here, in case it might be used on a future [[Monty Python]] article: | |||
The book was a spin-off of ''[[Wikipedia:Monty Python's Flying Circus|Monty Python's Flying Circus]]'', a famous Earth comedy television program and movie franchise of the mid-late 20th century, and was first published in the 1970s. | |||
(The above not at all supported by the episode, so should be permanently discarded.) | |||
==Behind the Scenes== | |||
*Monty Python alumnus [[John Cleese]] made a cameo appearance in ''[[City of Death]]''. Cleese remains, to date, the only Python to appear in a ''Doctor Who'' story. | |||
*Minor Monty Python contributor [[Douglas Adams]] wrote or co-wrote several ''Doctor Who'' stories, including ''City of Death'' as well as serving as a [[Script Editor]] for the series. | |||
*The ''[[Torchwood]]'' episode ''[[Random Shoes]]'' features a character called [[Terry Jones]], possibly a reference to the Monty Python member of the same name, although being set in Wales, Terry Jones is a fairly common name. | |||
*Monty Python member, [[Michael Palin]], was referenced in [[Partners in Crime]]. | |||
*In ''[[42]]'', one of the questions to open a deadlocked door was "What is your favorite colour?", a reference to the questions asked by the bridgekeeper in ''Monty Python and the Holy Grail''. | |||
*At one point or another, Python alumni Cleese, Jones, Palin, Eric Idle and Graham Chapman had all been speculated in the media as potential portrayers of the Doctor. | |||
(None of the above section relevant whatsoever to the ''Big Red Book'' itself.) | |||
