He was born and brought up in Glasgow, educated at Strathallan School, and died in a car accident in Munich. Serving as both director and producer of Monty Python's Flying Circus, MacNaughton also directed the team's first film, And Now For Something Completely Different and their German special, Monty Python's Fliegender Zirkus.
