2025Monty Python - Set

Royal Mail is proud to celebrate one of Britain’s most influential and enduring comedy troupes with a special stamp issue dedicated to Monty Python. Synonymous with surreal humour, intellectual absurdity and anarchic creativity, Monty Python has left an indelible mark on global comedy while remaining unmistakably British at its core. From their groundbreaking television debut in Monty Python’s Flying Circus to a string of iconic films, their work has shaped the landscape of comedy for nearly six decades. This stamp issue marks the 50th anniversary of Monty Python and the Holy Grail – a milestone for a film that redefined spoof cinema and cemented the group’s international status.
