Your favourite Monty Python Sketch/Song

“Shut up! Shut up, you American.

You always talk, you Americans. You talk and you talk and say ‘let me tell you something’ and ‘I just wanna say this’. Well, you’re dead now, so shut up!”

DEBBIE:
Can I ask you a question?
GRIM REAPER:
What?
DEBBIE:
How can we all have died at the same time?
[silence]
GRIM REAPER:
The salmon mousse.
GEOFFREY:
Darling, you didn’t use canned salmon, did you?
ANGELA:
I’m most dreadfully embarrassed.

– From the Movie: The Meaning of Life –

“Cut down the tallest tree in the forest with…A HERRING!”

Flood.

Are you people paying attention to what’s going in the British Press?

Clear shrubbery to counter Al Qa’ida, advises MI5

The non compromising “no puffters” Bruses of the phlisofical institution of Warramunga (or whatever).

/Dan

I’m a lumberjack and I’m ok.

Loved this the first time I saw it.

Also

Are you the Judean peoples front?
Fu*k off we’re the peoples front of Judea.

and

Ministry of silly walks

Just because it was so damned silly.

This sketch is also great…

mine would have to e the milkman scene, cant get enough of it, no matter how many times I see it

It is indeed. 😀

“I fart in your general direction!”

Wondered what the aweful smell was 😉

“Lets not go to Camelot – it is a silly place…”

Flood.

My favourite is ‘Julius Caesar’ on an Aldis Lamp
(not to mention ‘Gunfight at the OK Corral’ in Morse code and the Semaphore version of ‘Wuthering Heights’ ! )

Song wise for some strange reason the Penis Song in the Meaning of Life and Eric the Half a Bee
Sketch wise from the video And now for something completely different the drill “right stop that it’s silly and a little bit suspect” and Conrad Poohs and his dancing teeth.

‘I want a shrubbery’ !

“Now go away, or i will taunt you again!
You silly English king…”

“and your father smelled of elderberries!”

It is indeed. 😀

“I fart in your general direction!”

Is the complete series of Monty Python’s Flying Circus out on DVD, anybody know?

We are the Knights who say…Ni!
Or
It says Romans go home!
And
We’ve come for your liver.

Flood.

Anyone heard the Tale of the Piranha Brothers, Doug and Dinsdale?

“Well one day I was at home threatening the kids when I looks out through the hole in the wall and sees this tank pull up and out gets one of Dinsdale’s
boys, so he comes in nice and friendly and says Dinsdale wants to have a word with me, so he chains me to the back of the tank and takes me for a scrape round to Dinsdale’s place and Dinsdale’s there in the conversation pit with Doug and Charles Paisley, the baby crusher, and two film producers and a man they called ‘Kierkegaard’, who just sat there biting the heads of whippets and Dinsdale says ‘I hear you’ve been a naughty boy Clement’ and he splits me nostrils open and saws me leg off and pulls me liver out and I tell him my name’s not Clement and then…he loses his temper and nails me head to the floor.”

The fish slapping dance is one huge favourite of mine.

Other than that I have some favourite lines, especially those of Michael Palin’s; for example “Yesterday, (forgot the name) scored all six goals in last nights 3-0 victory against Sheffield Wednesday. Mr (name) is in our Durham studios, which is a bit of a pity as we’re all down here in London”.

I think I have to watch those episodes again to find out exactly what he said…

He’s not the Messiah, he’s a very naughty boy…

That works, I smiled just reading it.

Blessed are the cheesemakers.
