I wanted to be a Lumberjack

Ok, this thread has two purposes. Firstly, I'm pretty sure it was a year ago today that I joined. Yay for me.


But more importantly: Every thread on this forum seems to turn into a recital of a Monty Python skit. I have no problem with this, so my question is: What is your favourite Monty Python skit?

Myself, it would have to be the Parrot sketch.



Teehee, parrot.


Discuss.

:( I can only remember 2 sketches. The one about not being seen, and the funniest joke in the world. Both were funny.

Hungarian - English. He's trying to buy cigarettes.


My vote goes for the four yorkshire men, but under protest.
How can you possibly choose one Monty Python sketch?

The spanish inquisition, the Black Knight, Upper-class twit of the year, Dennis Moore and, well, the list goes on. :D

When I was doing the Cosmology unit in A-level physics, just before the christmas holiday my teacher brought in his guitar and we all sang along to the Galaxy Song. That teacher was cool, he dressed like the 5th dr who (Peter Davidson) and looked like egon from the ghostbusters.

"I use...an aftershave...called...SEMPRINI!!!!!"

"Semprini?" "OUT!!!"

I actually like quite a few skits they do...but I think it's hilarious that whenever they have the sounds of applause they always show this same film clip of a bunch of old ladies clapping. That cracks me up every time.

I've come here for an argument.

No, I'm sorry; this is verbal abuse.

You can't have an argument just by saying "yes you can/ no you can't!"

Yes you can.

No you can't!

This is being hit on the head lessons.

Four Yorkshiremen (sp?), great one to.

My favourite is when Mr. Gumby goes to the doctor, Dr. Gumby. "My brain hurts" and all that.

Next please.
Arthur walks into the room and up to the desk.
Sir: One at a time please.
Bob: There is only me, sir.
Sir: So there is. Take a . . .
Bob: Seat?
Sir: Seat! Take a seat. So! You want to join my mountaineering expedition do you?
Bob: Me, sir?
Sir: Yes.
Bob: Yes, I'd very much like to, sir.
Sir: Jolly good, jolly good. And how about you?
Bob: There is only me, sir.
Sir: Well bang goes his application then. Now let me fill you in. I'm leading this expedition and we're going to climb both peaks of Mount Kilimanjaro.
Bob: I thought there was only one peak, sir.
Sir: Well, that'll save a bit of time. Well done. Now the object of this expedition is to see if we can find any traces of last year's expedition.
