The last night of the 2014 Monty Python reunion shows, “Monty Python Live (mostly) - One Down Five to Go”, was broadcast live, on television and in cinemas, around the world. The first part of the show included the “Navel Medley” song, which contained words not permitted on UK television before the 9pm “watershed”. Rather than allowing the broadcaster to censor the show, Eric Idle came up with the idea of filming “An Apology”, starring Michael Palin as Daphne Fielding, to be broadcast at the time the offending song came on.
This clip from “Monty Python - The Meaning of Live” shows the behind-the-scenes of filming this “Apology” and Eric and Michael explaining how it came about.
