Just as unexpected as the Spanish Inquisition, IFC will be airing a six-part documentary to celebrate the 40th anniversary of Monty Python's Flying Circus.

The six-part documentary Monty Python: Almost the Truth (The Lawyer's Cut) airs Oct. 4-10 and features John Cleese, Terry Gilliam, Eric Idle, Terry Jones and Michael Palin, who, along with founding member Graham Chapman created groundbreaking humor with such sketches as "The Ministry of Silly Walks" and "The Upper Class Twit of the Year."

IFC's Python Week also will include airings of the films Monty Python And The Holy Grail, Monty Python's Life of Brianand Monty Python Live at the Hollywood Bowl.
