"How did you know my name was Eric?"

(I am 99.9% sure that was the response - a mere 30 years or so back I would have been able to recite the whole sketch word for word - one of my favorites.)

Please be in no doubt that this is the REAL ME! Beware imposters........................

"You must be a loony."

"I am not a loony. Why should I be tarred with the epithet 'loony' merely because I have a pet halibut? I've heard tell that Sir Gerald Nabarro has a pet prawn called Simon - you wouldn't call him a loony! Furthermore Dawn Pathorpe, the lady show jumper, had a clam called Stafford, after the late chancellor. Alan Bullock has two pikes, both called Chris, and Marcel Proust had an 'addock! So if you're calling the author of 'A la recherche de temps perdu' a loony, I shall have to ask you to step outside!"

So many fantastic sketches to choose from..... lol

My personal fav:

Hello Mrs. Premise!
Ohhh, hello Mrs. Conclusion
Busy Day?
Busy???  I just spent 4 hours burying the cat!
4 hours to bury a cat?
Yess....he wouldn't keep still, kept wriggling about and howwwwling.
Oh, so he's not dead then?
No....but he's not at all a well cat, and seeing as we were going away for a fortnight, I thought I'd better bury him just to be on the safe side.
Quite right, you don't want to come home from Sorrento to a dead cat

It's funny you should say that - I've been thinking about having our budgie put down......... lol

That's another classic sketch Carl.

Re: And now for something completely different.... :-)

Great topic this. When I started the climbing park 5 years ago as a publicity stunt I really wanted to re-enact Python's 'cllimbing', what was it, the south side of Uxbridge High Road? One of my favourite daft sketches by them. The guys in the team and I had it all worked out and wanted to do it in Rathausplatz in Hamburg. Typically, we couldn't get permission - no sense of humour here. But then, what have the Germans, sorry, the Romans ever done for us?

I have to say I am a sucker for this type of comedy. Couple of years ago on a trip to London I visited the South Bank street festival. It was a blazing day, 30 degrees or so. 4 guys were enacting scenes from "Scott of the Antartic" with sound effects, wind machine, fake snow, fake frostbite, furs and sleds. Pure Python inspired madness. Priceless.

Man how dumb am I....... Python was never my strong point, except for the Life of Bryan which I though was genius.

No.  We just don't like it.  We're going to take it to the vet tomorrow

Re: And now for something completely different.... :-)

I remember the "Matching Tie and Hankerchief" album. I was initially puzzled why one side ran for nearly 30 minutes while the other side only half that...only to discover that the "short" side actually had 2 sets of grooves, and depending how you set the needle at the start you heard one track or the other.

Many fond memories, listening to both Monty Python and Firesign Theatre.

Eee, when I were a lad ...

.....You were lucky. We lived for three months in a paper bag in a septic tank. We used to have to get up at six in the morning, clean the paper bag, eat a crust of stale bread, go to work down t' mill, fourteen hours a day, week-in week-out, for sixpence a week, and when we got home our Dad would thrash us to sleep wi' his belt.
