Character Role Analysis

Arthur

We're sure you've heard plenty of stories about this legendary king, but the Arthur of Monty Python seems a bit less…powerful? respected? brave? wise? all of the above? It's a sad time when a king can be dissed by a peasant and there's not even a beheading (or at least some time in the stocks) in his future.

However, while Arthur may not be the kingliest king or the sharpest knife in the drawer, he's a surprisingly good protagonist. He moves earnestly towards his goal and drags the others with him. While it might not be apparent at first, we think he might have learned a thing or two and grown a bit on his journey for the Holy Grail. Check out his "Character Analysis" for the deets.
