Ian MacNaughton
Edward Ian Macnaughton (30 December 1925 – 10 December 2002) was a Scottish actor-turned-television producer and director, best known for his work with the "Monty Python" team. MacNaughton was director and producer for all but four of the forty five episodes of "Monty Python's Flying Circus" from 1969 to 1974, director of the group's first feature film "And Now for Something Completely Different" in 1971 and director of their two German episodes, "Monty Python's Fliegender Zirkus" in 1971 and 1972. In 1973 the production team shared the BAFTA Award for Best Light Entertainment Programme for "Monty Python's Flying Circus".

The dating in this article follows the chronology given in the article Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies filmography (1929-1939). As noted above, the chronological release list given as an appendix in Leonard Maltin's "Of Mice and Magic" gives as the release date 8 November 1933. The same list, of course, gives a similarly conflicting order of release for Buddy's shorts: according to Maltin's book, the order, after "Buddy's Bearcats" and before "Buddy of the Legion" is "Buddy the Detective", followed by "Buddy the Woodsman", "Buddy's Circus", "Viva Buddy", "Buddy's Adventures", "Buddy the Dentist", "Buddy's Pony Express", and "Buddy's Theatre", after which Wikipedia and Maltin's book agree on the order and dates of release.
