Pythons team up for 3D film

Four of the Monty Python cast have reunited to give their voices to a new animated 3D film based on the memoirs of their colleague Graham Chapman, who died of cancer in 1989 aged 48.
A Liar's Autobiography will feature recordings Chapman made of his book, which he wrote in 1980.
John Cleese, Terry Gilliam, Michael Palin and Terry Jones have all signed up but Eric Idle is not involved. The film is due out in spring next year.
Terry Jones joked he had "no idea" until recently that Chapman was dead and "thought he was just being lazy".
"However, I am now delighted to find myself working with him again on this exciting project," he added.
Co-director Jeff Simpson said the producers had worked closely with the Chapman estate and the Pythons to "get this exactly right" and Chapman would be pleased that "his work is being reimagined in glorious 3D - he always loved wearing silly glasses".
