The Pythons are sick of paying storage on this stuff and have decided they'd rather fill up someone else's house!

Sketch: The Death of Mary, Queen of Scots and Penguin on the Television

Terry Jones' costume from the "The Death of Mary, Queen of Scots" and "Penguin on the Television" sketches, in which a couple of women (Terry Jones and John Cleese) listen to a radio play about the death of Mary, Queen of Scots, which mostly just features screaming. Their radio then explodes, forcing them to watch TV, only to discover a penguin standing on the television, which also explodes. This lot comprises a long-sleeved dress and a head scarf.

Inventory: One dress and one headscarf.

This lot is from the Monty Python Live (mostly) - One Down Five to Go stage show, which ran at the O2 Arena, London for 10 sold out nights, from July 1st - 5th, and 15th - 20th 2014. It was the legendary comedy troupe's last live performance ever and billed as "The End of Monty Python". The final night was live-streamed on UKTV Gold and to cinemas around the world, then subsequently released on DVD and BluRay. Many of the items in the stage show were created as one-offs, and all lots are guaranteed to have been used during the show.

This item comes with a Propstore Certificate of Authenticity
