THEY’RE BACK – MONTY Python, the British comedy geniuses that brought us such classics as The Meaning of Life and The Life of Brian, will be on our screens again soon.

But in traditional Pythons style, it won’t be quite what you’d expect.

This time, the Telegraph informs us, their film will be an animated 3D movie based on the memoir of late member Graham Chapman.

If you’re not a fan of 3D, don’t worry – it will also be available in 2D format.

Chapman, who died aged 48 in 1989, called his 1980 memoir A Liar’s Autobiography – and the animation will even use his own voice, taken from a reading he did shortly before his death.

The film will be produced and directed by Bill Jones, Ben Timlett and Jeff Simpson.
