    Yo people, whatever happened to the mini run to Doune Castle for Monty Python shinanagins? Has it been and gone already and I've missed it or did it just get abandoned? I thought it was a great idea!

    <gasp!!!>
    It's where most of the castley scenes in Monty Python's 'Holy Grail' was filmed!

    "Fetchez la Vache!"
    "quoi?"
    " The cow!!! Fetchez la Cow!"

    "You sons of second hand electric donkey's bottom biters!"

    etc etc etc...

    And your mother smelled of Elderberries!

    I know it well but didn't know it was filmed there.
