I once got a book signed at a book signing by John Cleese. I asked him to write something funny so inevitably he signed it... Something funny - John Cleese |

Subject: RE: BS: Best Monty Python sketch: 'No one... From: GUEST,fullerton Date: 25 Mar 05 - 08:35 PM Does any one remember a monty python sketch where a man used an infra red tv remote contol. He points it at the TV and presses buttons. Whereupon a character in Indian attire ( turban etc. ) jumped out from behind the sofa, runs across the room and changes the TV channel over. I remember the sketch from my youth but have never seen it in subsequent reruns. Yes TV remotes DID exist in the early seventies though they were a real luxury item - I used one at a naturist sauna that I used to attend...... but thaaaaaats a different story!!! Anyone else remember this? Might be worth a new thread. |

Subject: RE: BS: Best Monty Python sketch: 'No one... From: catspaw49 Date: 26 Mar 05 - 08:30 PM As PT knows, I absolutely hate "best" lists because most of what I really like ends up in a tie for first. And do songs count? No...Have to be another category entirely...... As I read this thread the one thing of which I am absolutely sure is this: A lot of us have spent some very significant portions of our lives watching the Pythons and large portions of our brains are taken up with complete, verbatim, sketches! But we all love comedy don't we? I remember the time I responded to something written here with, "I think we're all Bozos on this bus," and a zillion Firsign Theater addicted 'Catters zoomed in and took over the thread.......... LOL......Gawd, what a place this is......... Spaw |

It was done originally on 'At Last The 1948 Show', with John Cleese, Graham Chapman, Tim Brooke-Taylor, & either, I cant remember for sure, Marty Feldman, or maybe (Dr) Jonathan Miller, one of those 2 as the 4th member anyway. ...What about 'Hells Grannies'? ...or 'Te Fish-Slapping Dance' "I laughed so much I thought my pants would NEVER dry...." |

It's the 'B' movie for 'Meaning of Life' now available on DVD and a great hoot....

Subject: RE: BS: Best Monty Python sketch: 'No one... From: Ragman Date: 01 Apr 05 - 09:57 AM I'm sure at one time there was a sketch with elements similar to the "No one expects the Spanish Inquisition" where a gang of bishops and priests burst in to a baptism in progress shouting "Don't baptize that ...". there is an explosion then the head 'bishop' states in a New York gangland accent "We was too late...". The thing that attracted me to it at the time was that is was preceeded by some wonderful cartoon titles, with dramatic music, very reminiscent of Danger Man, which was also cult tv at the time. One of the titles was a caption "CofE Enterprises Presents...". I have the feeling that this may have only been broadcast once and it offended the Church of England (CofE) so much that it was never shown again. Does anyone else remember this, or am have I dreamed it up? |
