Monty Python and the Holy Grail
Directed by Terry Gilliam, Terry Jones
King Arthur, accompanied by his squire, recruits his Knights of the Round Table, including Sir Bedevere the Wise, Sir Lancelot the Brave, Sir Robin the Not-Quite-So-Brave-As-Sir-Lancelot and Sir Galahad the Pure. On the way, Arthur battles the Black Knight who, despite having had all his limbs chopped off, insists he can still fight. They reach Camelot, but Arthur decides not to enter, as "it is a silly place". From TMDB

Floyd were massive fans of Monty Python's Flying Circus snd when the comedy troupe were struggling to raise financial backing for their film "Monty Python and the Holy Grail", Pink Floyd pitched in 10% of the film's budget (£200,000) using the profits they had generated from the album. #PinkFloyd

All the interior scenes were filmed there.
