Monty Python ban lifted


Published on Wednesday 1 July 2009 11:27

A RULING which effectively banned Monty Python's Life Of Brian from a city's cinemas for 29 years has been lifted.

Councillors agreed to overturn the ban so the film can be screened in September at the Glasgow Film Theatre.

In 1980, the Glasgow licensing committee decided that the film could be shown only under an X certificate at cinemas licensed by the authority - not the AA-certificate given at the time by the British Board of Film Censors.
