Still one of my favourite (and most underrated, as it was in the last season) moments in Monty Python history. And also unusually for the TV series, the whole episode was this one story - so it's like a mini-movie.
It's pretty great, but it's also got some pretty damn racist stuff in there. "Housy Housy" and all that. Funny for quite how ridiculously over-the-top racist it is, but still racist.
@@weckar I agree, I find it hilarious, in part despite its racism, and in part because it's so ridiculously over-the-top racist. Part of it is me laughing _at_ it now, rather than with it but even so, it's still enjoyable. That said, it's a problem not because it's "not PC", but because, well, unironically characterising Chinese people the way they do is pretty harmful. We're smart enough to know the difference between this and reality, but not everyone knows exactly where the lines are and that could cause issues. Not saying that people actually think the Chinese are as depicted in this episode, but reinforcing negative stereotypes is generally harmful anyway. I realise I'm overthinking it a little, but I don't want to just sit by an leave discrimination unchallenged. I'm a fan of old, offensive media myself, but it's important always to have a little asterisk next to it to say "while this is funny, but also represents some outdated and disrespectful ideas".

John Pugh The Python crew are poking fun at the practice of mock executions as psychological torture in Russia during the Tsarist and Soviet periods. Dostoevsky, for instance, was a victim of a mock execution, he and his fellow intellectuals in the Petrashevsky Circle having been pardoned at the last minute by the Tsar, but the prison officials chose to carry out the form of execution anyway, but without live ammunition as a warning to them over supposed secret plotting. Konstantin Rokossovsky, who would become one of the Soviet Union's better generals in WWII, was arrested during the Anti-Soviet Trotskyist Military Organization purge, due to his place in the reformist wing of the Red Army, and tortured physically, and psychologically--having to endure multiple mock-executions (Solzhenitsyn reported two) where everyone around him was shot but he was spared. Incidentally, Rokossovsky would subsequently wear a pistol at all times, saying that he would not surrender if they came for him a second time. Recall that the Python crew were--and are--history buffs.
Actually a good majority of their sketches were lame... But the ones that are funny were fucking hilarious. Let's just put it this way, I've seen a lot more bad Monty Python sketches than good ones but the good ones made the bad ones worth it.
Bobby Ewing comedy is subjective The ones u find "lame" may be someone elses favorite For example my grandfather used to like there I'm not dead yet bit and hate the pet shop one I love the pet shop but hate I'm not dead yet it has ceased to be
The Cycling Tour is my favorite Python episode. For some reason you don't hear about it from fans too often. But this episode is drop-dead funny (like, which ones weren't). Palin is brilliant in it.
Nice touch with the poster at the end with 'Burgess and McClean', two notorious British spies working for the Kremlin. 'A Song, a Dance and a Piece of Treachery'
Over the years, Michael Palin has become my favorite Python. The dude just slays me. I mean, they are all incredible, but I just find him the funniest of all.
You should see his travel documentaries and Ripping Yarns. Even when he's doing something serious, he'd slip in a joke. In Italy he once said "Why do Italian men make you feel like Worzel Gummidge?" Brilliant!
In looking at this - Monty Python was filmed during the heart of the cold war, yet they were able to get their hands on actual Russian SKS rifles. Now THAT is impressive (now that I think about it).
I admit that I missed that part the first time I saw it because I was focused on Pither since he was the main character and he was on camera while Cleese's character said his line while leaving the cell...
Is it good or bad that I know how to play the entire arstotzkan national anthem. And the ussr National anthem. And also ra ra rasputin. Maybe I have a problem...
It's not Russian, it only sounds that way. For instance, when you speak harshly, people may think it's German, although it isn't. And when you speak French, they may think you are a woman... Sorry, I'm not great with examples :/
What's really funny is that those three words are never even pronounced by Russians when they execute someone. They may be saying "ready" and " fire", but they never say "aim".
"The Cycling Tour" episode which I believe was the first time The Pythons wrote a series of sketches packaged as one episode. I particularly liked "How could you miss?" "He moved!" "Shut up!" and "It was all a dream!" "No, dear. This is the dream. You're still in the cell." The random genius of Python. Love it!
The other two were "The Golden Age of Ballooning" and " The Michael Ellis Sketch". "The Cycling Tour" is my ATF and the one I recommend to people who've never seen Monty Python.

"How could you miss?!?" The troup could not have known how accurate (no pun intended) this would turn out to be in Russia's execution of the "special military operation" in Ukraine
This is a great satire of the "narrow escape" adventure dramas. Once he seems finally out of lives, we see "Scene Missing," then he's back in his peaceful England home, declaring what a fantastic escape that was.
@paulstewart6293 first off its a joke, and secondly I don't see comedy ruining children. You exaggerate and seem exactly the type of person monty Python crew makes satire about. Try having some thick skin
Divine Falcon I don't know about that considering the dated references but I would agree that their style of humor has aged quite well. Especially in the TH-cam era.
Also reminds me of Black Adder, where Adder's about to be executed by a firing squad. The head shooter asks, "Is there anywhere you'd like to stand." Adder replies, "I'd say on the other side of the wall would be just about right." God I love British humor. No "getting kicked in the balls" comedy like here in America.

Wait til your 56, you gain near full understanding of their humour!
"carry on with the execution" lmao
"How could you miss?!?" The troup could not have known how accurate (no pun intended) this would turn out to be in Russia's execution of the "special military operation" in Ukraine
This is a great satire of the "narrow escape" adventure dramas. Once he seems finally out of lives, we see "Scene Missing," then he's back in his peaceful England home, declaring what a fantastic escape that was.
Between 3:14 and 3:15, a poster appears magically on the wall.
Hit Now
indeed
"We're sorry. Would you mind waiting in your cell?"
These guys are funny. They should be given their own TV-show or something.
They did. And have you seen what it did to millions and millions of previously balanced, normal, school children? Should be banned.
4 seasons and 4 movie's afue stage show's and some theatre versions of there movie's and an up coming stage show of a life of brian
@@paulstewart6293 fuddy duddy
@paulstewart6293 first off its a joke, and secondly I don't see comedy ruining children. You exaggerate and seem exactly the type of person monty Python crew makes satire about. Try having some thick skin
@@amckittrick7951 maybe you missed his joke... or are you joking too?
"He moved." 😂
they sound more like german than russian...
They are actually English.
prob east german for skit XD
explains why they kept missing..
Twirlyhead i know... its just looks like german accent to me...

Brings me back to my boyhood. Staying up late (in the USA) to watch this strange, exotic, very funny show.
Same here! Dr. Who and Monty Python were my favorites. HATED Benny Hill (except for the naughty bits! 😳)😏
I thought this might have been a current scene
I'm glad I have the box set I can watch them anytime I want
I think Monty Python invented trolling. Their sketches are a masterclass, and no one was safe.
Trolling is just a word for something that existed long before the internet.
It's been more than 30 years since the Pythons disbanded, and still no comedian have been able to surpass them.
It seems they were way ahead of their time
Wright, Pegg, and Frost have done an admirable job at it though.

I don't know about that considering the dated references but I would agree that their style of humor has aged quite well. Especially in the TH-cam era.
Michael LaPorte meh yeah i can accept admirable.
its pretty terrible to be honest, people just like it because its old
2023 nothing has changed
I feel better now. Knowing this.
wtf am i doing in 3 am
Everyone else is laying about dribbling you're watching monty python :D
wouldn't that be fucking yourself?
Also reminds me of Black Adder, where Adder's about to be executed by a firing squad. The head shooter asks, "Is there anywhere you'd like to stand."
Adder replies, "I'd say on the other side of the wall would be just about right." God I love British humor. No "getting kicked in the balls" comedy like here in America.
I too love British humor, but from your last part I'd bet you were not a regular viewer of Benny Hill.
No, not a Benny fan. Don't discourage it, just not part of it.
I highly recommend Father Ted to anyone that loves this stuff; Python, Adder, Fawlty Tower. I'm American. I discover on my own. It's not on TV.
Allan Ostermann
Father Ted was never one of my favorites, but if you can get to see Bless Me, Father I strongly recommend it.
Thanks, Michael.
Still making me LAUGH after all these years!
They still shoot like this to this day.
"How could you miss?!" :DDD
"He moved."
What I want to know is how they hurt themselves the second time.
kory stephens “Shut up! Go and practice!!”
as a Russian, i find this hilarious. Thank you!
you are brainwashed quite enough for this humor?
nRADRUS On the contrary i think you are brainwashed not enough for this kind of humor. Besides biased and clearly russophobic. Typical western media fan, have a bad day.

ambulance girl Hello! :)
фывадорук оагшпз!!!
0.47, one of the live audience says "firing squad".
Ah, sweet, thanks for that m8, thought it was an exercise yard there for a minute.
Does anybody realise the message of this sketch?
So, the Reds found Waldo..
Officer's Russian is just as good as my Japanese :)
I'am sure you meant, grammar.
Yes. He mint grammar. Russian officer (1:33) speaks serbian or poland language, I think.
Next time think twice before you write. :P In Polish "drevienko" would be "small wood" and that is the only word from his babbling that was Polish or Slavic. :P
Classic : and Timeless! Cheers.
🤣🤣🤣🤣 Monty Python is still the best tv show! Ever!
No Dear. This is the dream.
