I've loved Monty Python since 1969.. Always thought it hilarious and funny as hell but never gave any thought to how clever their sketches actually were.. Some brilliant scriptwriting from some intelligent but wacky minds
Graham`s "dip, dip, dip" choosing game is from Duck Soup where Chico tries to choose who`ll cross enemy lines for help ("Rrrrrrrrrrinspot! -One sy, two sy tiggy tag tear, harum, scarum....") and always accidentally chooses himself.
I'd love to sit in on one of there meetings where Monty Python is trying to decide what to do in the next episode. Can't you just imagine them though? Cleese "Ok, we're going to start with a search for buried treasure in 1742, and end up with Graham Chapman playing a military officer in WWI and an old lady in a restaurant scene where we have vikings eating and singing about spam, and a little old lady and her son flying out."
i wish that hospital actually existed - would be an absolute boon to film and tv... and eric looks migh-T fine in that wig...haha "...and chrymanthesums......GET IN!! GET IN!!"... i love how he beats the flowers with other flowers to stuff them in..and the SCREAMING pepperpots...*dies laughing*
It was actually Richard II not Richard III who, in the Shakespeare play, said "A horse, a horse/My Kingdom for a horse". Richard III was a "Crookback" schemer, who said "Now is the winter of our discontent/Made glorious by this son of Yorke" (the opening line).
SPAM SPAM SPAM SPAM SPAM! We all love some spam....in a can of spam with more spam in spam covered in spam and grilled in fine spam that was marinated in spam.....ya...we love spam
"What do you got then?" "Well, there's egg and bacon, egg sausage and bacon, egg and spam, egg bacon and spam, egg bacon sausage and spam, spam bacon sausage and spam, spam eggs spam spam bacon and spam, spam spam spam eggs and spam, spam spam spam spam spam spam baked beans spam spam spam and spam, or lobster blah blah blah (can't really understand her during that part) and spam.
@Gjeorje if you have to copy skits from other comedians, you couldn't choose better than the Marx brothers, greatest comic team of all time....that said, Monty rules !!!!

A horse, a horse, my kingdom for a horse.
John's speech at starting 1:20 is SO GOOD.
"I gave it gladly... I .. I SANG AS THEY SAWED IT OFF!"
The joke is we're all the cat from the confuse-a-cat sketch
Yes leave it to a Gumby to stuff flowers bud fist into a vase.
haha i love cleese's face around 0:45 when they're doing the fist-behind-the-back thing
I love Cleeses face at the beginning.
They're very good scissors.
I'm surprised they didn't have a ward for Macbeth overacters.
cleese smiling at 0:44 XD
When they played Fisties, you could see John trying not to laugh at 0:47.
This is where the word 'spam' for repeated useless emails came from 'spam, spam, spam, spam and spam'

I think I recognized Terry Gilliam laughing off-camera round the time of Michael's "A horse..." (Unless he's the Richard III on the right.)
EmileGilbert yes that's it for sure
Oh my god how enriching. That's what his laughter sounds like. Incidentally, today is his birthday. Happy Birthday, Terry Gilliam!
I couldn't pick out his particular laughter. I thought for some reason it would be that guy who sounds like he's hyperventilating.
It was 3 at the time, but now it's all 4.
They're very good scissors. :-)
I DON'T LIKE SPAM!
Thank God for Henry Heimlich!
@Gjeorje Yeah I thought it seemed familiar... that's an awesome movie :)
at 0:45 you can see John Cleese losing it :D

I wonder if Eric really likes Spam.
I know I do.
I think he means "A shroe, a shroe, ym dingkom rof a shroe."
@whyhatestrangers
SHIA LABOEF: YOU CAN'T HOLD US IN HERE FOREVER!
GERALD BUTLER: Shut up. You'll wake Johnny Depp

Is somebody saying "Shut up" at 5:19?
Y'know, I just realized: except for the last sketch, none of the Pythons portrayed women in this episode...
