John Cleese @JohnCleese Follow BBC's Head of Comedy puts Monty Python's lack of originality down to a surfeit of education and racist bias Unfair ! We were remarkably diverse FOR OUR TIME We had three grammar-school boys, one a poof, and Gilliam, though not actually black, was a Yank.

A lot of original things can appear unoriginal to later audiences if they're copied enough. And since every worthwhile comedy act since Monty Python took notes from them, anyone who comes by later will look at the original and say 'I've seen this all before', which is true but missing the point.
