About this listen

Python, actor, director, popular historian, reluctant national treasure, purveyor of sincere silliness - this is the story of the one and only Terry Jones.

In an intimate portrait penned by the close friend Terry chose to write his memoir, Seriously Silly is the story of one our greatest comedy legends. Taking in his major successes as well as his personal battles, it is the whole story, from his start as a war baby in the picturesque coastal town of Colwyn Bay, to meeting his lifelong friend Michael Palin at Oxford and the journey that took him on a convoluted pathway through revue sketches, anarchic children's shows, Monty Python, TV presenting and beyond. It reveals the debates and creative genius of the Pythons, as well as Terry's extraordinary determination and resilience - especially in his final years as he battled with the dementia.

Written by his close friend and with the blessing and cooperation of his family and the peers who knew him best, Seriously Silly is the definitive celebration of a true pioneer of comedy, as well a personal and loving portrait of the man behind the laughter.©2025 Robert Ross (P)2025 Hodder & Stoughton Limited
