It's hard to pick out but King Arthur says "JESUS CHRIST!!" when he sees the cow.

[davidhsmith]

@newfieboy58 Good spot!

I'm sure I've seen a cut of this scene where after Cleese has said "Fetchez la vache!" for the second time, the other guard says "Quoi?" again and Cleese hisses back, "Get the cow!", thus setting up the running gag that the French guards aren't really French. Anyone else remember this or have I imagined it?

[ProtestantsRUs]

So funny when the cow kills someone. Hilarious when they start launching animals.

[LeGlod]

Fait peter la vache non ? lol

"Fetchez la vache!" One of my all-time favorite lines. Why I don't know. I think it's because of John's vocal inflection. It keeps popping up in my everyday dialogue. I love it! "Fetch the cow". I guess that the word "fetchez" is a creation of Monty Python. True or not? My more in-depth interpretation of this quote is, "Put on the hip boots. They're gonna be slinging some major bullsh*t, i.e., cow pies." :-)

[davidhsmith]

I think the word "fetchez" is almost certainly a Monty Python creation!

[MagicBoggo]

@ProTwoAm Hi man! About "Fetchez la vache": I'm French, and what I hear sounds more like "Faites chier la vache", which is a slang way to say "bring the cow!' (we also say "faites péter" rather than "faites chier" in this case)

Great movie anyway!!

[Kyrax1]

@ProTwoAm "Fetchez" would actually be the correct way to conjugate the verb "To Fetch" if it were a french verb.

"Vous parlez", "Vous marchez", "Vous mangez" ... "Vous fetchez" !

[IWasSirChuckers]

"Parle vou Francai?"

"Oui, Fetchez le vache!"

lol

[yukadoo]

@IWasSirChuckers
