One of my favorite movies of all time is Monty Python and the Holy Grail. I'm not sure what part is my favorite, I quite like the Holy Hand Grenade bit, and I fart in your general direction is a favorite as well. What I do know is that the videos on YouTube of Monty Python bits are typically very poor quality.

The remaining members of Monty Python have announced that they are getting their own YouTube channel. The most viewed Python clips are being uploaded in HQ formats.

A message from Monty Python on why they opted to start their own channel reads: “For 3 years you YouTubers have been ripping us off, taking tens of thousands of our videos and putting them on YouTube. Now the tables are turned. It's time for us to take matters into our own hands. We know who you are, we know where you live and we could come after you in ways too horrible to tell. But being the extraordinarily nice chaps we are, we've figured a better way to get our own back: We've launched our own Monty Python channel on YouTube." At least they didn't ask you to bring them a shrubbery in order to watch the channel.
