The BBC wanted a wacky name, something "off the wall". They suggested "John Cleese's Flying Circus", but as Michael Palin recalls, "luckily John didn't really want to be that associated with the show". Palin further suggested the name "Gwen Dibbly's Flying Circus", Dibbly being a friend of his Mum. The group liked the idea that the old woman would suddenly be called to the living room by her son, saying to her: "look, Mum, there's a TV show called after you!". In the end Eric Idle suggested "Monty", thinking about the image of an old respected Englishman with a pipe, and Cleese pulled "Python" off the sleeve to go along with it - and the rest is history.
