John Cleese, Terry Gilliam, Eric Idle, Terry Jones and Michael Palin, the five surviving members of Monty Python, gathered at New York's Ziegfeld Theatre for a rare reunion in order to celebrate their 40th anniversary and to receive a special award from the British Academy of Film and Television Arts.

After a screening of a feature-length cut of the new documentary "Monty Python: Almost the Truth (The Lawyers Cut)," the five gathered on-stage (with a cardboard cut-out standing in for the late Graham Chapman) to answer questions from the crowd, banter, invite a ten-year-old girl up to do her impression of their "Spanish Inquisition" sketch and sing "The Galaxy Song" from "The Meaning of Life." You can watch a video of the session here.
