Starring: Michael Palin, Terry Gilliam, Eric Idle, Terry Jones

Coming to cinemas for One Night Only, Not The Messiah (He's a Very Naughty Boy) is a fabulously entertaining comic oratorio based on Monty Python's Life of Brian, filmed at its only European performance at the Royal Albert Hall in October 2009.

This hilarious take on The Messiah features the BBC Symphony Orchestra and Chorus, a host of superb soloists in the lead roles including Rosalind Plowright and Eric Idle, with Michael Palin as Mrs Betty Parkinson and special guest appearances from Pythons Terry Jones and Terry Gilliam. And of course three sheep!

Eric Idle explains: "It is rare you get to be silly on a mass scale. Not The Messiah tells the tragic tale of Mandy, impregnated by a Roman soldier, giving birth to Brian, a reluctant revolutionary who falls in love with Judith, gets mistaken for a Messiah and is condemned to death. It ranges in reference from Handel, through a naughty Mozart duet, to the Festival of Nine Carols, Bob Dylan, and the classic finale - Always Look on the Bright Side of Life."

Screenplay: Eric Idle, John Du Prez

You should see it because: It's like Handel, only funnier.
