Default On TV tonight

No idea whether it's worth watching, but my TV guide software (freeguide
- excellent stuff) tells me of a program on tonight (Thursday) at
22:15 on BBC4. Monty Python's Flying Circus: The Cycling Tour. The blurb
States:-
"When Mr. Pither crashes his bicycle (due to a loose pump) on a cycling
tour of Cornwall, he could hardly have been able to predict that he
would meet a man who specialises in the safety of foodstuffs, Clodagh
Rodgers, Trotsky and Eartha Kitt, let alone travel across Europe to the
Soviet Union."

Possibly the worst Python prog in the history of all things ever, IMHO.

It first appeared while I was at university. As a known cyclist I was
subjected to Mr. Pither impressions for months afterwards.

A fellow student was from Jersey and claimed that Mr. Pither's
Cornwall was actually his home island.
