Python pilgrims keep up the fun

Knights, cardinals and bearded ladies have been swarming round the grounds of Doune Castle as fans marked the third annual Monty Python Day.

Built by Robert Stewart in the 14th Century, the keep appeared as Castle Anthrax in the 1975 film Monty Python and the Holy Grail.

Since then, thousands of devout fans have made their way to the castle, outside Stirling. Tickets for this year's event were restricted to 500.

We need a more advance warning when the next Monty Python Day is. And I thought everyday was Monty Python Day.

Next year is not listed yet, but this is where we can search for the event later. Under events, click on "Doune Castle", then select date range.

I say we all go there at once on Monty Python Day next year and scare the locals and the sheep.
