*cut to scene inside of a store*

Excuse me, I'd like to buy a book.

^ are thinking of Ethel the Aardvark here?

No, I'd like a copy of "30 Days In the Samarkand Desert With the Duchess of Kent", by A.E.J. Elliott, O.B.E.

No, we haven't got it in stock, sir.

How about "101 Ways To Start A Fight"?

BTW, December 5th 1974 - Monty Python's final episode airs on BBC Television.

Have you seen it?

Have you seen it?
I must have seen it, and probably saw it at the time of the original broadcast. The first thing I do remember is that John Cleese left after the first episode of the final series.

Horace Poem

Much to his Mum and Dad's dismay
Horace ate himself one day.
He didn't stop to say his grace,
He just sat down and ate his face.
"We can't have this his Dad declared,
"If that lad's ate, he should be shared."
But even as he spoke they saw
Horace eating more and more:
First his legs and then his thighs,
His arms, his nose, his hair, his eyes...
"Stop him someone!" Mother cried
"Those eyeballs would be better fried!"
But all too late, for they were gone,
And he had started on his dong...
"Oh! foolish child!" the father mourns
"You could have deep-fried that with prawns,
Some parsley and some tartar sauce..."
But H. was on his second course:
His liver and his lights and lung,
His ears, his neck, his chin, his tongue;
"To think I raised him from the cot
And now he's going to scoff the lot!"
His Mother cried: "What shall we do?
What's left won't even make a stew..."
And as she wept, her son was seen
To eat his head, his heart, his spleen.
And there he lay: a boy no more,
Just a stomach, on the floor...
None the less, since it was his
They ate it – that's what haggis is.

Well I am officially suffering Python overload !

Just back from melbourne where I saw Spamalot twice in one day - utterly hillarious. My friend starred as Galahad/Black Knight and he stole the show with some brilliant asides. We had front row seats in the first show and second row seats later that day. The sets were brilliant and the orchestra were a scream. Everyone was really well cast. My sides opsitively ached from so much giggling.

Flew home to perth and the next day I had 3rd row seats to Not The Messiah starring Eric Idle. This time it was a spot of culture - an operatic oratoria - with a full symphony orchestra and massive choir - with the entire Life of Brian story and some bagpipers and sheep!  Bloody brilliant. Eric was utterly hilarious. We giggled our way through it all and shrieked "hail the messiah" numerous times. Came home humming "What have the romans ever done for us".

There were a lot of cross over gags between the two shows - with much taunting and tempting us into thinking Lumberjack would pop up at any time !

My face aches from a week of giggling!

I recall that back in 1980 when I first saw Monty Python's Life of Brian, I had a sore throat from too much laughter.

Was Mr. Creosote present?

LOL - at least it was Colin that won in the end !

Interesting that this topic came up, for me anyway. I got my folks the special DVD edition of "the Holy Grail" for Christmas. 

Did they get the jokes about the coconuts, or the jokes about forms of government?

Have you seen the Easter Egg on the "the Holy Grail" DVD?

No, I haven't. I think Mr. Creosote ate it, just on top of the pate.

Simon (Philip), who is our first contestant this evening?

I love this show! I've been a fan since I was little and just happened to catch it on late night tv during the summer. There are way too many skits that I love and I always thought the animation was way different. One of my favorite animations was Killer Cars. I have yet to buy the complete box set DVD :)

"  ok i know. holy grail, NOT mpfc.    truthfully though. . . growing up in po-dunk jamestown kentucky, , , my dad would watch mpfc on pbs. . . . and i would sneak out of my bed after my oh-so-anal mother hit the hay -  --- and daddy would let me watch it with him. i have never seen funnier stuff. . . . . . ok. now i need to go out tomorrow and get the box set. . . . . .

Next, we have hotel registry, receipts and photographs that could mean divorce, sudden unemployment, and possible proceedings for a man in New York.

He's a sex addict, and a Pathmark worker, so that's $5,000 please, Mr. H.

To stop us from revealing your name, the names of the 3 other people involved, the Youth Organization to which they belonged, and the shop where you bought the equipment!

I believe John Cleese has a ranch out there and breeds horses.

Not related to Monty Python, but John Cleese... down here in Cocoa Beach is a place called Fawlty Towers Hotel. Damn I want to stay there :)
