Monty Python And The Holy Grail

Monty Python And The Holy Grail

King Arthur (Graham Chapman) and his Knights of the Round Table (John Cleese, Eric Idle, Terry Jones and Michael Palin) are on the trail of the elusive Holy Grail, encountering many nasty and long-winded characters (Cleese, Idle, Jones and Palin) on the way.

Who can forget the quest for a shrubbery to placate the fearsome Knights who say 'Ni'; the fearless, and limbless, Black Knight; the mysterious wizard Tim; and the horrific White Rabbit, with the big pointy teeth?

Marking the film's 50th anniversary, this new 4K restoration is presented in Dolby Vision HDR, with Dolby Atmos, 5.1 surround, and original mono soundtracks. A second, standard Blu-ray disc contains a regular HD copy of the movie with 5.1 surround and mono soundtrack options.

First released: Monday 25th August 2025
