British troops captured by Iran in disputed waters - Python Terry Jones comments:
"And what's all this about allowing the captives to write letters home saying they are all right? It's time the Iranians fell into line with the rest of the civilised world: they should allow their captives the privacy of solitary confinement. That's one of the many privileges the US grants to its captives in Guantanamo Bay.

No hoods. No electric shocks. No beatings. These Iranians clearly are a very uncivilised bunch""
