Synopsis
King Arthur, ruler of all Britons (simply because some watery tart decided to throw a sword at him), roams around Britain powered by a coconut driven invisible horse seeking knights who wish to join his Round Table. He first encounters the ever so wise Sir Bedevere, whose astounding intelligence astounds all( but his knowledge of swallows is really quite minimal. You have to be a King to know those kinds of things). Next, the chaste Sir Galahad who is rescued from the clutches of sex mad virgins clad in shimmering see-through white by Sir Lancelot, who might be just a little bit gay.. and a tad too hot tempered for comfort, as his hobby of putting swords through heads shows. Last but never ever ever ever ever ever least, the brave Sir Robin who must have to regularly pay a lot of dry cleaning bills. As this little gang of merry men (and a Patsy) go on their way to Camelot, they are taunted horribly and visciously by some French soldiers. The disappointment gets even greater when they finally reach the mod.. I mean, the castle of Camelot and discover it's a silly place and not fit for a gallant King at all. As fate would have it though, God reveals himself to them (no, not that way you dirty thing) and gives them their quest: TO SEEK THE HOLY GRAIL.These brave gir.. I mean, men, go on their seperate ways to seek this Holy Grail and happen to come across some eccentric characters indeed, like the Killer Bunny, the old man from scene 24, Roger the Shrubber, Tim, the Knights who say..NI! and some police officers. Amongst others. Just go watch the movie yourself you lazy sod.
