Loved Python since I was a kid and the Pythons were playing exclusively on Public Broadcasting.  No other like Terry Jones, a comic and a scholar.
Come, fill the Cup, and in the fire of Spring
Your Winter-garment of Repentance fling:
The Bird of Time has but a little way
To flutter--and the Bird is on the Wing.

Terry Jones is the narrator on the audio tour guides for Doune Castle in Scotland. You can hear a sample from the castle website:

Just as he amused audiences in "Monty Python & the Holy Grail," Jones's voice can still be heard by visitors to Doune Castle.

Forsake the foolish, and live; and go in the way of understanding.

Reprove not a scorner, lest they hate thee: rebuke the wise, and they will love thee.

Give instruction to the wise, and they will be yet wiser: teach the just, and they will increase in learning.
