#MontyPython
Michael Palin inspired my young self with his 80 days around the world to embrace the unknown with optimism and humour . A legend indeed. If you read this, thank you Sir Michael for being so formative to me..
This exemplifies the fact that, for everything that Monty Python is as we know it, its roots remain in the brilliance and genius of the incredible minds and intellect of its members which continue to surprise and enlighten. It is why Monty Python continues to be relevant more than ever, as well as
inspirational to the minds of all of us today, and going forward. Cheers!!
Except the tall one. He’s a mindless brexiteer.
Thank you for this charming little series (sadly one can only guess what Graham and Terry J would have chosen). Michael never ceases to entertain, educate and delight and this little film is no exception.
I could listen to this legend's interpretation and translation of anything. Sir you made me so incredibly interested and invested in all the stories, of a stunning piece, I likely would have just walked past.
I’m enchanted by how this painting is simultaneously excited for and apprehensive of the future.
That's a good way to put it!
I’m so pleased to see Sir Michael Palin again. I love and appreciate his enthusiasm and the ways in which he can articulate a feeling and a space in time.
we need a whole documentary by Sir Michael Palin about National Gallery
I'm touched. Thank you for your publication of this video.
Art is such a beautiful way to express yourself.
Blessings 🙌 and love and peace for all of us❤️🙏🕊🌌
♡ cordial wishes, Chris 🌹 🐢
Imagine my delight this morning to see a new post from Sir Michael! Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts on this wonderful painting. I hope you feature more artwork from the gallery!
I love these. ❤
His episode of "Great Railway Journeys" is still one of my favorite documentaries.
great video. I went and toured the castle that was used in Monty Python and the Holy Grail in Edinburgh Scotland 3 weeks and the tour voice guide was Terry Jones an amazing experience!
Thank you very much from France.
Beautiful.
0:16 that moment is lovely. kudos to the cameraperson!
I've titled it "old man in the museum contemplates...so much".
the time that has past and the time that is coming and the things that have and will happen,
much as Mr Palin's interpretation of Rain, Steam, Speed does
Lovely, sir! It was a honor to have you here in my hometown, here in Portugal, Viseu, a few years ago, and just a couple of feet/meters from me. I wish I could enjoyed your company on a level like this, discussing art, life, humor, politics... Who knows someday... Thank you!
Love Turner ❤
Thank you for posting this. Always a pleasure to listen to this man! :)
This is magnificent! As an Aussie, I doubt I'll ever get to see these amazing works of art. Michael is such a gracious and knowledgeable host.
Our Aussie painters did similarly amazing work with new light...

Excellent exposition and background by Sir Michael - as comments alluded to below - the very sharp intellect of all the Pythoners but partic I would say Cleese & Palin amounted to a good amount of the success behind their work - enjoying Michael's diaries and he is an excellent, sensitive, lyrical, honest and emotional writer who writes beautifully expressed prose.
Excellent commentary, Sir! Thank you.
A lovely second-hand gallery visit for those with enough mind-space to pay attention to art. (My respiration rate and BP have lowered from a minute ago, reading the world news.)
I hadn't thought of Turner in that way. But looking at the Fighting Temerare being towed to the scrap yard by a steam tug, I get it now. (Apologies for spelling mistakes). Turner, in his time, was looking to the future.
Indeed, and not only in subject matter but also in his “impressionistic” style.
More of these please! What wonderful insights on the art that inspired them from our favourite Pythons ❤
Lovely videos giving a bit of insight into what inspires legends.
Kudos. Charming.
truly the most insightful and engaging persons of our time----thanks for sharing Mike---always providing a touch of your humor :)
I love Michael Palin. Love from Denmark.
Thank you, Mr. Palin, for being the personification of wisdom, wit, compassion and curiosity for so many years (and hopefully many more!).
Great overview of a theme I would not have guessed! Hard to imagine - trains were new and held in awe.
I believe that Mr. Palin has already eaten most of the Turners. He said that they were delicious.
Love Michael.
I love these!
I love that he refers to the work as science fiction. Brilliant!😊
Great choice & taste !
Palin is a national treasure, speaking as an Australian :)
Bless
I know you don’t like to be identified with Monty Python anymore
But think of it this was way we would have not known you here in America and enjoyed you,embraced you and learned about you in this aspect
I will always treasure that picture I have of you many years ago
I am delighted and proud to be a fan of yours
I care about you my friend and pray for you always ❤
Where Q not-so-subtly implied to James Bond that he was like The Fighting Temeraire being towed to the wrecker's yard.

Something about Michael Palin reminds me about Gandalf
I love the hare.
I think Michael Palin would have liked playing Red Dead Redemption 2 if he was 60 years younger. Video games for old souls.
I’d never noticed the hare.
He is 7 days righteous, in his own flesh. Resting on the Sabbath.
Perhaps they should build a Moses temple, in Egypt, Turkey, Greece, Italy, and Spain. Or any of them. Iraq was the head of this statue that just fell. In one sense the painting is a picture of the Middle East and Israel, Turkey, Egypt, etc.
In another sense when the painting was imposed on a sidewalk scene, that painting not being there, the Arthur-surveyor of the scene provides a sense of a mind of England. Was what I experienced anyway.
Usnar Monde was my new band.
Now. Normandy. The beaches of Normandy. Narmondy. Is it Nar Monde instead of Nor(th)man?
I hope the hare didn't hurt anyone.
"Look at the bones!"
@@SynchroScore Thank you! I was wondering if anyone would reply! Therefore, "One rabbit stew coming right up!"
I am suffering from some sort of piracy "a mind of cancellation, to be brought forth."
Also look at film Mr Turner with Timothy spall.....by comparison...
If UK is shaped like a chicken/rooster, there is a "battering of the populace" joke I can't remember.
Yes but what does it TASTE like?
Benny Hill considered funnier than Monty Python by two TV stations--WOR and WLVI!

Depressions. Schizm. Helicopter Sim-game. The people act like simulation helicopters.
"Oh no this isn’t."
"Oh so this is."
"Oh so this is...”
"Oh no this isn't."
Please sir, rationalize that "oh no this isn't" is when a schizm could take of you and make something return-the-stolen-cell-phone of you.
Witness people walking by:
He so is. And another guy: Depressions: He so is but won’t do that right now.
Every person. "Oh so this is [when it isn't]." or "Oh no this isn't."
Beatles: She's so heavy (She so is.)
Which claims to be pillow and God, sins against Moses:
Jehovah desires, and
Jehovah has not;
Jehovah murders, and is zealous, and is not able to attain;
Jehovah fights and wars, and
Jehovah has not, because of
Jehovah’s not asking;
Jehovah asks, and
Jehovah receives not, because evilly
Jehovah asks, that in
Jehovah’s pleasures
Jehovah may spend
Why are we suing Jehovah, THE KING OF THE JEWS? With a He-rod, and a Pilate? Thus: we shall have NO King Of The Jews.
God created Man on the 6th day: "rule over fish of the sea, and over fowl of the heavens, and over every living thing that is creeping upon the earth."
The Man wants the woman to rule over his penis and told her to use her authority to rule over the creeping thing (the serpent).
It looks like "Pilate"(pilot) is the joke: use my penis, it's the serpent God gave you authority to rule over. (The Herod.)
He swore by the beast of all flesh and blood, (which must call out to the bad thing from which flesh and blood), that the woman could rule over his flesh?
They reduced Man's flesh to the beasts of the field, so Adam could have Eve give his penis an orgasm?
If even a beast touches Sinai, it must be stoned to death. / The head of the penis, the law of Moses came tumbling down was Sinai. (The Golden Calf was Cosmo- (magazine, earlier)).
He swore by the beast of all flesh and blood,
(which "here the mind that is having wisdom", must call out to, or flee from, the bad thing; doing so from which specific animal's flesh and blood),
that the woman could rule over his flesh?
‘Here the mind that is having wisdom (pick any animal or human or bird or lizard);
the seven heads are seven mountains, upon which the woman doth sit,
"This is the woman, explaining "masturbate penis" is what's going on there:"
and there are seven kings, the five did fall,
and the one is (the tree of the knowledge of good and evil),
the other did not yet come, and when he may come, it behoveth him to remain a little time; (tree of life and live forever? in Genesis, they left the Garden.)
and the beast that was, and is not, (this is the total flesh of animal)
he also is eighth, and out of the seven he is,
and to destruction he doth go away ("here the mind that is having wisdom": flees from the bad thing in the creature's own flesh and blood).
The Christ: Did she just sacrifice their son to Molech as a beast by masturbating which penis per instruction?
The beast-multiplied (any animal, but this is about ?Man):
and they have over them, a mind, a "picking out the bad thing". A "calling out to the bad thing." A "to destruction he doth go away". -
the messenger of the bottomless Grave (the outcome of Death)-
a name to him in Hebrew,
Abaddon,
and in the Greek he hath a name,
Apollyon.
"You-all". And the sheep are "them".
Why aren't we suing Jehovah something else? This Jesus was the penis that Eve ruled over.
Jehovah pre-swore Adam to not eat of the fruit.
Whoever crowns lawlessness King, is lawlessness. (Now compare what Eve says to Adam.)
So that's why Lawlessness is "sorry".
Lawlessness is suffering from a schizm.
Why was Adam pushed into the schizm?
Oh so this is.
Oh no this isn't.
Oh no this isn't.
Oh so this is.
Who keeps paining us, we need to be about a schizm?
Right.
Well what's this, 7 days of creation?
In the 6th day he made them.
But in the account of the 2nd day, he didn't explain: by which steps they would be made:
"2nd Day" Genesis 2:
"These births of the heavens and of the earth in their being prepared,
in the day of Jehovah God’s making earth and heavens;"
God pre-swore Adam
and of the tree of knowledge of good and evil, thou dost not eat of it, / I do make to him an helper - as his counterpart.’
and created the slave-terms of the face of the east coast of Africa.
‘Multiplying I multiply (5 ?mountains fallen?):
1. thy sorrow and
2. thy conception,
3. in sorrow dost thou bear children, and
4. toward thy husband thy desire, and
5. he doth rule over thee.
Stolen consent to the eternal enslavement of all the children of Eve.
And. He who sexes with her shall surely die? Pre-planned. Daniel Defoe? Robinson Crusoe?
‘Multiplying I multiply thy sorrow and thy conception, in sorrow dost thou bear children,
(to the bottomless Scooby-Doo grave?)
Why are we suing Jehovah: 3 times: The King Of The Jews?
Didn't we have anything better to say?
Like: "Oh so this is." "Oh no this isn't." "SCHIZM." "Depression."
(Depression: Rat in a drain-ditch caught on a limb. What limb were they caught on before this.)
Train bore travel bore TV bore - he used to be funny. Great shame.
Used to be funny, then he became informative. And also sometimes funny.
And yet you’re here
@@johnp515 Well spotted, Bruce
@@SynchroScore Did you see his trip to Bosnia? Or his return to his Mediterranean boat trip? Embarrassing.
@@andrewashdown3541 I'm afraid I haven't seen them. How are they embarrassing? I have seen _Confessions of a Trainspotter_ and I have read his diaries; those were very entertaining and informative. I've also been meaning to watch _The Death of Stalin_ one of these days.
Monty Python has officially become boring.
And he shall snuff it!
