A set of 10 stamps from Royal Mail will pay tribute to “one of Britain’s most influential and enduring comedy troupes” – Monty Python.

The main collection of six stamps celebrates characters from Monty Python’s Flying Circus, the BBC TV series which ran from 1969 to 1974 with sketches so popular, generations of fans can still recite all the lines.
