Francis Posted May 21, 2002 Author Share Posted May 21, 2002 Hurrah! excellent work! I didn't expect it answered so quickly, but just proves how popular Monty Python really is! How about setting a question to keep it all going? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jezebel Posted January 25, 2003 Share Posted January 25, 2003 I Heels, I think the answer is Karl Marx, Vladimir Lenin, Che Guevara, & Mao-Tse Tung . And our very informative host was Eric Idle. So many shoes, so little time... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

azraelle Posted January 26, 2003 Share Posted January 26, 2003 GAWD! Monty Python sucks raw thousand day old eggs. It's right up there on my list of the very worst flicks of all time along with Buckaroo Banzai...

Yamyam Posted January 26, 2003 Share Posted January 26, 2003 Oh, and speaking of comedy, does anyone watch Father Ted? I have BBC America here in California, and we get all sorts of British shows. I've been waiting to see the new Fater ted season, yet all we get is repeats of old shows. Sadly, the chap who plays Father Ted died not long ago, quite suddenly. So the repeats are all we get. I was never that into it when it was on, but I discovered it not long ago. All together now: "These are small, and those are far away!" Obsessed is such a strong word. I prefer to think of myself as "differently enthusiastic" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jezebel Posted January 27, 2003 Share Posted January 27, 2003 Francis, Cheers and thanks for liking my pinky-purpley hair! Azrealle, I'm sorry you don't like Python, but not everyone shares your point of view, being our thread is on its' 4th page... Yam-yam, I didn't hear that he died, what a shame. I did enjoy watching that show. "These are small, and those are far away!" (cue Dougal shaking his head) That was a good episode, Graham Norton was on it. I watch So Graham Norton. I pretty much only watch BBC America. Coupling is really funny, oh Changing Rooms is another good show... Ok, new Python question.. Who plays the vet in the 'Confuse a Cat' skit? So many shoes, so little time... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azraelle Posted January 28, 2003 Share Posted January 28, 2003 Jezebel, I too like your hair, although I am probably in the minority in my rather conservative locale--a high school girl was expelled for 3 days last year for coming to school with her hair dyed purple--and her mother had helped her dye it! So it wasn't just a "kid's thing". I still can't stomach Monty Python, though, sorry!

Jezebel Posted January 28, 2003 Share Posted January 28, 2003 Hi azrealle, Thank you! I've had my hair this colour for about 2 years, my niece is a hairdresser and she had fun doing it, and I kept it that way as I liked it. I'm 24, and thankfully have had no problems being employed with my hair this colour. (I work part-time as a special effects artist.) As far as Monty Python, it's no problem that you don't like it. There's probably lots of other things that we have in common and can chat about on the boards! So many shoes, so little time... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Shoe Posted January 28, 2003 Share Posted January 28, 2003 Ardal Hanlon (I think that's right) who was also in Father Ted is in "My Hero" which has the same nonsensical approach as Father Ted and to my rather juvenile sense of humour is incredibly funny.

PJ Posted August 23, 2003 Share Posted August 23, 2003 Way back in the early 1970's, I remember watching a strange comedy program on television. The people were supposedly talking english, but they had a strange accent that made it difficult for me to understand. I had to learn new words or new meanings to words such as lift (elevator), holiday (vacation), lu (restroom), and so on. This was my first experience hearing British people talk. Yet in spite of these difficulties, I took a liking to the show, known as Monty Python's Flying Circus. Since it only aired on public broadcasting stations in the USA, it would air for a few years, then disappear for many years, then reappear for a few years, and so on and so on. About 15 years later when I purchased my first video cassette recorder, I was able to record many of the Monty Python episodes. Then about another 15 years later when DVD's became popular, I purchased the Complete Monty Python Flying Circus on DVD. Some of my favorite sketches are: 1 - the lumberjack song. 2 - The Minister of Silly Walks. 3 - The SPAM sketch. 4 - The candy made from bug parts and fluids (such as lark vomit). 5 - The cheese shop 6 - all of Terry Gilliams animations 7 - and too many more to list here I also own all the Fawlty Towers episodes on DVD. click .... click .... click .... The sensual sound of stiletto heels on a hard surface. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jemanda Posted August 24, 2003 Share Posted August 24, 2003 I blow my nose at you, a fart in your general direction!! your fathers a hamster and your mother smells of elderberries. Oops... sorry, I just enjoy that crummy French person with the attitude. Nice to see Python fans here... any Goon Show buffs??? Alas in South Africa we were shown mostly American programming in the early years of TV so missed the classic British stuff.. Camelot? tis a silly place. Oh, and dont forget the black knight..

texasbumpkin Posted August 25, 2003 Share Posted August 25, 2003 Where as I work in a hospital I think it is appropriate to say: The administrator is coming.
