Rutland Weekend Television

1975 · 2 seasons

A scrappy, silly sketch show that feels like a cheap regional channel run by cheerful eccentrics, with catchy musical interludes.

Created by
Eric Idle

Overview
Comedy sketch series purporting to show the programming of a low key regional television service. Written by Eric Idle of 'Monty Python's Flying Circus' fame. A popular feature was the music of Neil Innes (one time member of the eccentric Bonzo Dog Dooh Dah Band), especially his Beatles parody The Rutles. They later featured in their own film: 'The Rutles (All You Need Is Cash)'.
