Monty Python super fans go on the Holy Grail of honeymoons in Scotland

A pair of loved-up Monty Python fans have celebrated tying the knot with a laugh-a-minute tour of film locations in Scotland.

John and Gemma Wood, from Sussex, toured the country earlier this month scoping out locations from 1975 classic Monty Python and the Holy Grail. They even recreated scenes made famous by the troupe - John Cleese, Michael Palin, Terry Gilliam, Terry Jones, Graham Chapman and Eric Idle - in the same spots where they were filmed almost 50 years ago.

The pair got married after meeting on Pythonesque, a dating website that John, 62, created after divorcing his first wife - and counted Python contributor Carol Cleveland among their guests on the day. The pair are obsessed with the classic British comedy troupe, speaking to each other in quotes and visiting filming locations the length of the country.
