Truth be told, I HATE when people call things "classic" because it's usually a word used to describe many things that don't deserve such a designation.  To call somehting classic, it has to have been absorbed so completely into society that it's essentially common knowledge.  Monty Python and the Holy Grail is such a thing.  If one doubts this, just go up to practically anyone and say "I am Arthur, King of the Britons" and I'll bet you 9 out of 10 will reply in falsetto female voice "I didn't know we had a king!"  Thus is the phenomenon that is Holy Grail.  This special edition delivers a great deal of additional fun as well, including a facinating tour of Holy Grail shooting locations from Michael Palin and Terry Jones, and the entire script can be superimposed as you watch(yeah, like we all don't know the lines already) Bottom line:  GET THIS DVD, and BRING ME SOME SHRUBBERIES!!!!!!  Or else...(you know!)
