Yorkshire Yankee, the Spanish bank in question was actually the "Banco Santander", but this doesn't spoil the joke.

While serving behind a bar the Sunday after the show, I saw two of my friends being bored to tears as someone pontificated about the takeover. I copied the same line. My friends spat beer through their noses. The self-opinionated one later tried to tell me (unsuccessfully) to know my place.

If I have a favourite Python sketch (as opposed to single quote) it is John Cleese correcting Graham Chapman's latin graffiti in "Life of Brian". To appreciate the full humour of the sketch, one had to have had Latin inflicted on one as a subject at a Grammar or Public school, which I why I was rolling about on the floor of the cinema where I first saw the film, while everyone else stared at me and wondered what institution I had escaped from.

Python came out with many quotes which aren't funny in themselves, but remind many of the unforgettable sketches. Even the sketches sometimes were made memorable by Python's inspired continuity.
