Do Not Adjust Your Set (1967–1969)
8/10
The other pre-Python show.
20 June 2019
There are very few comedy troupes that have had as long lasting success as Monty Python. But all great shows come from humble beginnings and this is one of them.

DNAYS was originally a children's program but it starred future Python members of Eric Idle, Terry Jones, Michael Palin and Terry Gilliam as both performers and writers. And just like "At Last the 1948 Show" you can see a lot of the bits and bobs that would eventually make their way into Python including Terry Gilliam's animations. Joining them was the Bonzo Dog Doo Dah Band who would perform songs of a somewhat comic nature.

Like the 1948 Show there aren't a lot of these episodes that have survived to this day but a DVD is out there showing what is available.
