Terry Jones is a legend. As well as writing many of the most famous sketches in Monty Python's Flying Circus alongside Michael Palin he also co-directed Monty Python and the Holy Grail with Terry Gilliam and directed The Life of Brian and Monty Python's The Meaning of Life all by himself. He is the author of many books including Terry Jones's War on Terror which usefully reminds us that you can force an abstract noun to surrender.
