"Hello, Operator. Yes, we're trying to get the fire brigade. No, the fire BRI-gade! Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. What? [Takes off shoe to look at the bottom] Size 8." Now THAT is awesome dialogue :)
Ironic that there's more drama and excitement in the hairdresser's expedition sketch than there was in the lame 'Everest' movie with Jason Clarke and Josh Brolin that came out a couple of months ago!
Did they bring this on blu ray I think they need to release this on blu ray and soon! This is by far my favorite British TV series! Including Monty Python the movies lol 😂
'Our Eamonn' at the 7 min mark onwards. Sounds nothing like me, accent needs work. Note: He's nailed the image (especially the spear). Eamonn The "O" Man Jam
It's an expression from that generation about how you would be tied up on the phone by the operator asking all kinds of irrelevant questions. My grandparents and my parents use the expression when "interrogating", and we have lived in Las Vegas for three generations. So it's not even an insular British joke. "Name? Address? Shoe size?" I bet if you use the expression, towards anyone "interrogating" you, you will get a laugh. By now, most regular people think it's random enough. Remember that laughter is a discharge of energy that has built up between people. Think of laughter like an explosion which discharges necessary pain. Rather than building it up inside, let it erupt out of you. No matter what you think it sounds like (you cannot hear your own voice. That's an illusion. Disregard all thought of yourself when laughing) Laughter is an explosion of nervousness. The funniest thing is how humans identify the sound hyeanas make as "laughter". That is also their nervous/excited sound. Laughter will be the salvation of humanity. I guess you deserved to hear all this just by directing a question to Pythonland, where I am Professor Emeritus "I guess you will ask for my shoe size next."
*ring* *ring* .. Hello?, Yes, Yes, Yes, Yes, Yes, Size 7, Yes, yes. yes. Um they Must been drunk when they wrote that skit. and what was the questioning about from the Operator..... Then the Fire BRIgade..... Simple dialogue that made NO SENSE!
I call my mother "moomie" because of this sketch. Been doing so for 20 years now.
There isn't an upstairs dear, it's a bungalow...

An Everest-based Salon business doesn't sound like satire anymore...

During the movie trailer one of the soldiers had a EM-2 rifle, not sure why I found that so funny.
The Glasgow Orpheus Male Voice Choir is epic.
