Synopsis
In this low-key comedy, a missionary (Michael Palin) who is trying to save the souls of prostitutes admits an ever increasing number of them into his "private fold." Soon the priest's "mission" looks more like a brothel. The cast includes Maggie Smith, Trevor Howard, Denholm Elliott, and many other well known British actors.

5.0 out of 5 stars WELL I NEVER!!!!, 21 Jan 2003
So, you think Michael Palin is a nice, wholesome man with good morals and manners? You're very correct - but the character he plays in this film blows away the old theory that Michael is in fact the "nicest" Python. A saucy and very witty film that makes me roll on the floor laughing time after time - a must see for all Python and Michael Palin fans!
