Monty Python - The Refreshment Room At Bletchley

[bigbrojack]

Brian Islam and Brucie should have won Britain's Got Talent. They were robbed!

[rockerchickomg30]

Oh god, we all love you, Eric.

[Samoplant]

Well it's just obvious to me!! And I think it's obvious to quite a lt of people when they watch Python movies.

The social comments in the series are perhaps a bit harder to grasp!

The sketch about The Piranha brothers is obviusly about how many times criminals are in an terrrible position right from birth, how unintelligent criminals can be, even if they are succesful and about the lameness of the police!

[blackbrandonblue]

@Samoplant For what Python has to say about self-indulgent over-analysis of simple premises, see Gavin Milarrrrrrrrrrr.

[Samoplant]

Well most of python sketches have social comment in them. Some are very obvious, some a little less! Don't you think the parrot sketch is about a salesman, who sales you crap and when you come back to complain, he tries to talk himself out of it, instead of giving you something better?! It's social comment, it happens in poor stores.

[bigpapadragon]

@Samoplant You kinda took that way out of proportion... it's just a joke..

[TheRadical42]

This is my favorite Toon in all of Pythondom. I laugh my butt off every time I see it. So much fun!

[KsAnNa]

Eric Idle, my comical hero :)

[neithere]

Perfect choice of music and hilarious contrast between the stern look and movements of that animated man. I especially love the part that begins at 2:16.

[harrybon92]

Is that Russell Brand talking in the beginning?

[Gardenstatehomecomin]

@harrybon92 no its eric idle

[HamJamAndSpam]

Russle Brand wasn't even alive then you tool!

[harrybon92]

@HamJamAndSpam You're so cool.

[HamJamAndSpam]

@harrybon92 Oh, I know.

[alexm5488]

Probably my favorite animation in the whole series.

[xo49]

I truly have to agree!!

[jbxenia]

Ahh... there was a take-off of the same bit on How to Irritate People.

"And now!" *applause*

"Our host!" *applause*

"Your host!" *applause*

"As usual!" *applause*

[tankianchic930]

Its Brucey.. not Lucy.. lol

[Itsnotatuba]

I'd be super surprised if I got a response, but does anyone know what song that is when Brian Islam and Brucey are breaking it down? This is definitely one of my favorite animations of Gilliam's.

[crescentfreshbret]

I have no idea. In one of the Flying Circus "All the Words" books, it just says "Two animated men dance to jugband music." So that's all the information I've got. Probably just some old 78 Terry Gilliam had on hand or something.

[savoytruffle96]

if you're still wondering, its called Banjoreno by the Dixieland Jug Blowers. Don't ask how I know that....

[esoraleak]

How do you know?

[savoytruffle96]

The chief weapon is surprise...surprise and fear...fear and surprise.... our two weapons are fear and surprise...and ruthless efficiency.... Our three weapons are fear, surprise, and ruthless efficiency...and an almost fanatical devotion to the Pope.... Our four...no... amongst our weapons.... amongst our weaponry...are such elements as fear, surprise.... I'll come in again.

[stratocaster78a]

Recorded at december 10th, 1926;)

[lijluvr356]

@savoytruffle96 how DO you know that? O_O

[TheBrianJ]

Brian Islam and Lucy is one of my favorite Gilliam Animations from Monty Python...it's just so wacky and random, I love it.

[xyntax81]

I always thought he says Brian Islam and Brucey?

[TheBrianJ]

It might be, I just went with what it says in the description of the video.

Either way, it still rules.

[xyntax81]

Agreed :)

[xyntax81]

My all-time favourite! Thx so much for posting!

[Sukriti]

You know, all those things Eric was saying in the beginning.. they're the sort of things i would say about MIchael Palin...

[Tareltonlives]

Or Eric, really

[lOo0la]

@Sukriti They're the sort of things I'd say about Eric;D

[PeerlessPaavo]

A smile, two bangs and a religion.

[negligiblepond]

Fabulous... nobody does smarmy, slimy creep like Eric!

[TheRadical42]

@negligiblepond Ya! But Michael Palin does a great job too in some sketches. There's one where he's like "Wasn't she just great ladies and gentlemen? And she can run as fast as she can sing! Believe me because I would know!" Very smarmy!

[DonaldMcKinney]

Unbelievable. Amazed at Brian Islam and Brucie!! Terry Gilliam is a genius!! :D

[Chadner]

You know what, I think so too!

I just put it there cause it's was the name of the sketch I got from my episode guide

[AshScorpio]

LOL WE BLETCHLEY PEOPLE DONT HAVE THAT ACCENT!!! lol

[PheatherP]

Chadner, I think that it's Brucy, not Lucy.

[Crusader1987]

Yeah, it's definitely Brucy or Brucey.
