Eric Idle's Hair


Anyone know why he wears a toupee for so many of the pieces?

I don't think he does.

Eric had long hair during most of Python. He would have to tie it up and wear wigs to hide it.

This is me.

Ah, thank you!

I found corroboration of your statement:

He had rock-idol hair past his shoulders during the Python years, and even though it was mostly kept pinned under the wigs of his characters onscreen, the viewer sensed a certain anti-authority wickedness in his eyes.
