Characters
In his book Monty Python: The Case Against Irreverence, Scurrility, Profanity, Vilification, and Licentious Abuse, Robert Hewison describes the dwarfs as a comment on the Monty Python troupe. The nice one, Fidgit, as Palin; the self-appointed leader, Randall, as Cleese; the acerbic one, Strutter, as Eric Idle; the quiet one, Og, as Graham Chapman; the noisy rebel, Wally, as Terry Jones; and the nasty, filth-loving one, Vermin, as Gilliam himself.
