Monty Python - Trouble at the Mill/BBC comedy sketch

[macchilavel]

"We were wondering if we could possibly borrow your head for a piece of animation... you will get expenses"



[accuristau]

Trouble at t'mill.

[MysteriousStranger03]

3 people have felt the wrath of the comfy chair!

[salvadory]

"can you give me a life?"--- cleese " can do but wont" classic python line

[lastswordfighter]

The Pythons were able to make some good sets when their budget was there. I heard that there were times when the budget was low and sometimes they had to cut back on props and set designs.

[Danevader2]

I guess 3 people were expecting the Inquisition?

[dantd95]

@Danevader2 they think they can, but NOOOOOBODY can expect the Spanish Inquisition ;)

[DiligentSleeper]

John Cleese reminds me of my brother with that beard......... strange... hahaha

[blacklashwave]

Whats that little bit that the head guy says "thats enough" about?

[captainboots]

@blacklashwave When Terry Gilliam finishes reading the charges he starts to sing a song. All he gets out is "my old man" which is apparently the beginning to the song "My Old Man (Said Follow the Van)". I guess he's a Cardinal who likes British music hall songs.

[alyssahotty18]

So that's how Chapman died...

[system0system0]

that was so funny so funny omg

[redhorse271]

A true monty python classic. If you don't get it, your obviousley wayyy to young.

[TheDefiantBadger]

@redhorse271 I seriously doubt anybody could truly get this :D

[smegweevil]

Seen it and heard it hundreds of times but it still makes me laugh. Just brilliant!

[krudmuphinstudioz]

Of all the Monty Python skits that don't make sense, this is possibly the hardest one to understand, lol

[TheKnightwing1197]

next time my friends dissagree with me, ill say 'I didnt expect the Spanish Inquisition!' that should solve it, dont you think, thumbs up if you agree

[TheYoshi42]

I expected the Spanish Inquisition! :D

[kombajndosalatek]

@TheYoshi42 NOBODY expects the Spanish Inquisition!

[viridismonasteriense]

@kombajndosalatek I did. (shhh!)

[sonofboo]

It's not particularly funny but I enjoy seeing comments marked as SPAM in a monty python sketch

[theonetruephil]

"Nobody expects the spanish- " "Oh bugger"

[Louis2282]

Don't forget this is about 30years old. It was really mind blowing at the time. There was nothing like it on tv and for me it still works

[knrdvmmlbkkn]

Louis2282:

30? Probably closer to 40.

[DiligentSleeper]

@Louis2282 and there still isn't anything like it on tv - this is REAL comedy, people!!

[graydawson09]

@Louis2282 Almost 40 years old now!

[chuckkottke]

I would like to be in program planning actually, but unfortunately I've got a degree...

[EmileJoulbert]

I like caption humour.

[b00mhauer]

"Ah... well, in that case, I'll be saying 'good bye then, sir'... good bye then, sir." The way Idle says that always makes me laugh.

[Tareltonlives]

Wouldn't mind turning Carol's rack at all...

Hm. That didn't quite work.

[dnm72863]

NOBODY expects the Spanish Inquisition!

[thanx4life]

@dnm72863 3 people do expect the Spanish Inquisition

[pizzacica]

"I'd like to be in program planning, but unfortunately, I've got a degree." :D

So funny, and seems so true, too.

[ems4545]

this is the funiest one.

*DIABOLICAL LAUGHTER* hahahaahahah. :)

[Tareltonlives]

*DIABOLICAL ACTING*

[gisbrei]

Good quality! 5 stars

[spadge321]

timeless !!

R.I.P.

Dear Chapman !!

[gisbrei]

rip'em all i say!

[gisbrei]

1. A "damish" cunt"?

2. I don't think you read my previous message correctly. Just playing with words.

3. You care enough to reply.

4. why would i listen to Winehouse?

5. You like "damish" cunts and their culture (Lars Von Trier). Yes, i looked at your channel. You like Sex Pistols? Me too!

5. Grew up watching Monty and other bbc comedy shows. Have a shelf full of Viz and Zit comics.

6. In the Immortal words of Father Jack Hackett FECK OFF!

[spadge321]

as long as you poke fun at em with respect

they were /are the most

the benchmarx

then i just couldnt get enuff of this maddness !!

recently watching a lot of Kenny Everett another lost talent in par with these boys !!!

in the immortal words of withnail's uncle Monty,, 'i'll never play the Dane !!! '

[gisbrei]

Don't worry about it you old twat...

I was doing my H.R.H the Duke of Edinburg impersonation in the first comment.

P.S. You and i both know Chapman was the cocksucker.

[gisbrei]

That's interresting... I want you to read something:

Wenn ist das Nunstück git und Slotermeyer? Ja! ... Beiherhund das Oder die Flipperwaldt gersput.

[gisbrei]

Sheisse! Ze johke deed not wohrk...

[Tareltonlives]

Collateral damage! *urk*

[sjktheband]

PATHETIC!

Not this, nor Monty Python.

The fact is, good humor such as this is being outranked by Soulja Boy, and that is just terrible!

[LemonDancer]

agreed...so true.

[19ThePurplePython93]

Naughty nightie. put it on and it melts!

Guaranteed to break the ice at naughty parties

XD

[Gorboduc]

"Ah... can do... but... won't."

[thelusitania]

the whole point of Monty Python was to be funny, not to offend people!!!!!!!!!

[spadge321]

sad tit !

[slushy50254]

hmmm... the naughty nighgown

[jinxiejae]

i love the one where they are on the bus racing to get to the courtroom " nobody expects- (*cut to black) oh bugger!"

[nokiagaming]

They got into a lot of trouble over that, bugger was quite a strong swearword in those days.

[Aug1992]

Come on you sick humorless *******. Sure some of the things that Monty Python are a bit sad but what did you expect? Upastanding christian value? Bollocks. Don't get me wrong but with all due respect you cannot seriously use that as an arguement.

[Morgalica]

Love the Spanish Inquisition! Has me falling to bits everytime I see it, and I too shout "NOBODY EXPECTS THE SPANISH INQUISITION!"

[merseygroup]

whats so funny aoubt torture,mureder and killing millions of people in the name of the vatican? whats so funny about torturing an old woman with furniture until she dies? these sick homo freaks have no appeal to decent people with upstanding christian values. they are disgusting sexually perverted nobodys rightly despised by normal families.

[Halsgoddess]

You're a loony.

[beepandbop]

I think it was a satire--that's the whole joke, Monty Python takes something sick, and makes it laughable.

It's silly, but there's no need to rave about it.

Just watch the clip and laugh.

[Snoware]

I've read this three times trying to figure out if you're serious or not. Either way , your hilarious.

[wolf5172]

yeah, wtf? its a comedy taking the piss out of things that happened in the past! also you have to remeber, if you are serious, that MPFC was an extremely popular tv show and i believe is still quite popular, also the films are still being sold as well, quite a long time after being made.

[dr4win9f00l]

Because it's Monty Fucking Python, you humorless git.

[ExplosionsRfun]

It's funny because technically it's not about torture, murder or killing, it's about the Spanish Inquisition's incompetence at it. And how can you torture an old woman with furniture? Put an ottoman out of place? Hang up the wrong drapery? Bloody hell, I hope you're aware you sound like a sanctimonious wanker. You give good Christian people a bad name.

[Obistalker1]

shut yer gob, ExplosionsRfun!Arrrrrrrrr!

[juventes]

Holy crap, it's a Monty Python sketch, calm down.

[Obistalker1]

Biggles has orange undies!!!!

[RazgrizDemons]

and why does he have air force goggles on as well? xD

[netsurfer1212]

Always guaranteed to brake the ice at parties!

[sundaeg1rl]

I have a naughty nightie just like that one ;-)

[thrustvector]

careful when you wear it!

[archivesbc]

nobody expects the nightie inquisition!

[jjuran]

"...such diverse elements as fear, surprise, ruthless efficiency, and almost fanatical devotion the Pope. And nice red uniforms... oh, damn!"

[Lacclolith]

Amongst our weaponry are such elements as fear and supr--- I'll come in again!

[Coerlin]

haha

[GrahamChapman]

Sometimes, when I suspect that nobody suspects anything, I shout "NOBODY EXPECTS THE SPANISH INQUISITION" and uptil now, no one expected me to shout that, as expected.

[Hot4House]

I love the Spanish Inquisition bits, but I especially like the part after it. Thanks

[Heartachechild]

our cheif weapon is suprise, suprise and fear, two cheif weapons!

[PsychoGoppieNinjette]

LMFAO monty python is genius "Cardinal give the...oh dear...give the rack a turn..."

[Gluben]

One o'cross beam's gone out o'skew ont'treddle.

[gontarg]

No one expects the spanish inquisition!
