- Monty Python's Michael Palin and Terry Jones perform their "Hendon" sketch on Comedians Do It On Stage, a 1986 Channel 4 special (British TV) charity show in aid of the Oncology Club Fund. Followed by "Paranoid Society" sketch by the whole cast. I had this clip on an old VHS tape. I couldn't see it elsewhere on TH-cam, so I put it up so Python fans could enjoy it.
With both Terry and Graham in Heaven, it's suddenly a much sillier place. No need for Spike to be lonely any more.
Dennis Moore I gave you a vote up for the joke, but of course if the Christians are right both of them are in Hell, where I would expect to meet them myself, along with Mark Twain, Carl Sagan, Steven Hawking and a host of other far more interesting, intelligent and decent people than will ever be found in heaven.
Dennis Moore It wouldn’t be Hell without him!
This Hendon sounds like a magical place.
Let us NOT go to Hendon, tis a silly place.
It's only a model!
I can empathize with the members of the Paranoid Society. I used to drive taxis for a living once, but I had to give it away - people kept talking behind my back!
@ecky1965 Will you please stop making that noise! The poor chap can't concentrate on driving his taxi with you making that stupid stupid noise.
give it up
Newspaper taxi?
So...you became a bus-driver? Oh, wait!

When I see these two together, or any of the six in question, it’s not about Monty Python. It’s about the friendship they shared in real life. That’s what makes the comedy so good. That’s what makes any entertainment team as good as Python was, no matter the medium. It’s a bond. Nuffsed.
Agreed!
Only 5 we’re friends, they’ve never told which of the 6 wasn’t a “one of the chums” as they put it, but I know they’d often prise apart his sandwiches and wipe their bottoms on his bread. Filthy horrible beasts.
PLOT TWIST: The woman Terry was talking about was Michael's wife.
Great comedians - Jimmy Mullville/Rory McGrath from ‘Who dares wins’ - Mel Smith / Rhys Jones who replaced Chris Langham on ‘Not the nine o’clock news’ - Palin and Terry J - brilliant.
And Neil Innes. RIP.
I could add France & Saunders, Lenny & Henny, Lord Steven Fry & Rowan Aitkinson, Sir Prince Andrew
Rob Buckman in the red sweater, another real doctor of medicine blessed with working with Palin, Jones and Cleese; who enjoyed acting and writing in such programmes as, “The Pink Medicine Show” and “Don’t ask me”.
Joke’s on him. Our accountant could now sell his house in Hendon and buy TWO converted monasteries in the Outer Hebrides. Who’s looking all smug now, eh?
Goddamitall...the Pythons should live forever. Goddamitall anyway.
They already do live forever - with all five Goons.
Born and raised in Hendon... long time since
same here June 63 left it 23 years later
@@sen5i Started in 49, left around 1970, Mom lived there until 2002, still. Visited her from N/A, every year until then... The place is really messed now,.IMO.
@@hirundine44 "really messed up now" So that makes Hendon the same as the rest of the UK, then?
@@DieFlabbergast I guess? You tell me...
The shade of Peter Cook informing Palin’s character here……
Greetings from Hendon, Michael you are welcome anytime 😉
This was originally written for The Frost Report in 1967, where it was done by John Cleese (the interesting man) and Ronnie Corbett (the man from Hendon). Then it showed up in The Two Ronnies in the 70s, this time with Ronnie Corbett as the interesting man and Ronnie Barker as the man from Hendon.
So I hear.*
*(Since that's all one can do, given that the BBC wiped the f---ing Frost Report video!)
The RAF museum in Hendon is rather good. Head for Colindale tube though.
And the Police College on Aerodrome Road (I think).
I didn’t know the torture assistant from “Princess Bride” was a British comedian
'She came from Hendon..' LOL... good think I wasn't drinking anything...
Nine people nearly got in at Hendon
Good old Terry....he was so handsome
What? Lol
Nice bum too.
I'm offended. I was born in Hendon in the 50s and it was very exciting. Your chances of being caught by Teddy Boys and being thrown down a pit were very high, and you had to cry really loud before they would give in and let you go home for tea..............
In the Wesh Harp, which most people call Brent Reservoir, there were fish (some say they were pike and some say catfish) which would pull ducks underwater and swallow them.
I could look at this lineup and I say, oh, he's dead, dead, disgraced, another dead one, what every happened to him and oh, what's that one's name - or I could just enjoy their brilliance and laugh. 🙂
R.I.P. Terry.
Suppose it's a good thing MP had two Terry's.
Sorry, that was inexcusably Pythonesque.
RIP TJ.
Fred
RIP Terry and thanks for the laughs!
@@ffggddss RIP Fred. You wrote some of my favourite comments on TH-cam. I shall miss your wit, your panache and your succinctness. God bless you and keep you laughing up there in the giant TH-cam commentary in the sky. Mallelulia
@@alkatrask2704 ???
I'd forgotten the wee thing in the top right corner that told you the adverts were coming on.
Hendon FC are well worth watching at Silver Jubilee Park. Their old Claremont Road ground was lovely too (I picture the man in the sketch as a proud season ticket holder).
A bunch of young Spurs fans in Canada had been to London on their first trip. I asked them where they had been apart from the old WHL and Wembley. They described this really welcoming club that they got to on the train. The lightbulb in one of the heads went on “Hendon!” Hendon obviously made an impression on them.
Well well well.....I live in Hendon....and have done for a long long time...This is most amusing.....
brilliant, as usual.
Beautiful piece of comedy but also an example of how some people are always on transmit & not receive
Like others here, I’m from Hendon and can confirm that it really is that boring. It’s SO boring that the only two places it’s known for - the police college and the RAF museum - are actually in Colindale.
Amazing thing about Hendon is that if you spell it backwards it spells Nodneh, which is The Queen’s favourite word
Her favourite word is Nodneh, her favourite son’s a nonce.
Stop that. It's silly.
Had to watch this, as someone born in Hendon 🤓
I lived in London, in Finchley, during the mid 2000s, not so far away from Hendon. I miss London a lot.
Say no MORE!
That version of the prayer Our Father!
I bet God laughed!😂👍
This is Boris Johnson. Such a cool idea: a society for paranoid people. Also, a society for people who wish to be hermits
Palin is handsome
My goodness. I remember the not the nine o'clock news. The paranoid society.
Epic sporran on Terry there
Rory McGrath, Michael Palin, Neil Innes (?), Mel Smith, Griff Rhys-Jones, Jimmy Melville, Terry Jones, Bearded Guy in Red Sweater, Chris Langham (?)
Jimmy Mulville.
I think the Bearded Guy in Red Sweater is Dr Rob Buckman? He started off doing medical stuff on TV but expanded into comedy.
fluffyfour...certainly is Rob Buckman, he co-wrote for the secret policemans ball amongst other things and died far too young at 63 on a flight to Canada where he lived in later years.
Definitely the disgraced Chris Langham unfortunately.
Hendon, BRAP !!!
"I hear a pretty Ganja how many freaking closed", quote the Closed Caption...
Why was Terry wearing a kilt?
Because he wasn’t wearing underwear and he didn’t want to compromise the punchline. Why not? He also could secrete the prayer shawl neatly and present it without rummaging in a trouser pocket, some people!
RIP Neil and Terry Jones.
Thumbnail looks like Mickey Flanagan and Rob Brydon.
Poisonous snails? LUL
What's all this then?
In the paranoid sketch the sex offenders were put at either end.
I'm a massive Python Fan and I've never been to Hendon, so this is bullshit.
Estos dos...😈😆😲😉
Can a Freeman of the City of London get free into library exhibitions in the other 32 London Boroughs??
As long as you drive your flock of sheep to the library with you
ORDER! goodbye, why? I love mp, mb, gb, and and and.was für ein blödsinn, ich bin denn da
Brilliant Hendon conclusion!
10,000 cattle is a bit unrealistic
Didn't the 2 Ronnies do this first?
When comedians are no longer allowed to make fun of people with schizophrenia, there will no longer be anything or anyone to laugh at.
What did you just say to me?!
Well speaking as a schizophrenic, we both agree with you!
Is Hendon a real place?
lol yes. my nan and grandad lived there a long time ago
I think it's more a state of mind than an actual place.
Hendon is not a place one can visit, it is a higher dimension that one should aspire to enter!
I did not know Rory McGrath was capable of being funny
Surely you jest!
Have you never seen any episodes of Who Dares Wins? Classic 80s comedy. Rory trying to sing a folk song without mentioning sailing ships and 'never to return' was a killer.
The reservoir is nice.
This makes you wonder if Graham already peaked prior to his death in 1989. Just a thought.
Shit, now i wanna go there.
Bloody Oncologists!
Palin con problemas con el pelo...como yo😑
I couldn't really see them doing a gig at a working mans club
Ian Hay Why not?
Nothing wrong with Hendon....well not much, except the....
I have been to Hendon lots.... There are worse places...
Brilliant
hello birds hello trees
I can't laugh too hard !!!
I believe in you. You can.
Ben Elton was rubbish in this.
First done on tv by The Two Ronnies.
most of the cocktail party sketches The Two Ronnies did were written by Terry Jones.
Not many laughs in it.
