Had a bit of an entertaining Eric Idle sighting once when I was in the virtual audience for a lockdown recording of Infinite Monkey Cage. Most of the show was done when he just randomly let himself into the panel and joined in.

I did pick up a copy of his "sortabiography" once and would actually recommend that as quite an interesting read.

I've never seen a Python in real life. A friend of mine bumped in Mr Palin on Hampstead Heath a few weeks ago, and reported he was as nice as expected.

I haven't read Sortabiography, but I have read the Greedy Bastard Diary. Neither Idle nor Cleese's attempts reach the heights of Palin's diaries or travelogues for me, though.
