Consistent with this irreverent approach, the ending of Monty Python and the Holy Grail culminates with an unexpectedly absurd anti-climax: as if King Arthur and his knights finally prepare for one last siege on the castle in France, modern police stop them and bring them in for murdering. The black screen fades quickly to stop the epic fight the crowd has been primed for. It is this kind of tongue-in-cheek ending that embodies Monty Python's hallmark absurdity, playing with cinematic conventions and sending the audience out laughing—or scratching their heads—well after the credits roll.
