Sony Pictures celebrate Python release with video competition

by Amber Wilkinson

To celebrate this week's release of the Monty Python And The Holy Grail Extraordinarily Deluxe Edition, Sony Pictures has set up a website inviting Python fans to submit a remake of their sketches.

Python buffs have until 13 November to submit their video remake to www.celebratepython.co.uk and vote on the other contenders. The winning prize has yet to be confirmed but losers are promised "a shrubbery".

If all that sounds too much like hard work, there's also a weekly prize draw.
