Monty Python - Agatha Christie Sketch

[realheavylevi]

This sketch was funny and all, but I know who the murderer is, and where he is ! But I tell nobody !

[MomoTheBellyDancer]

His hat is on too tight.

[ThePerradox]

Why do the phrase 'No one must ask the room to leave" make me think of Lovecraft? A lone, insane since who knows when, Scotland Yard Inspector, trapped in hyperspace, repeating the same line over and over. No one must ask the room to leave...NO ONE must ask the room to leave...etc, etc

[Ihatethisugh1]

Carol Cleveland- Rrrrrrrrr!!!!

[ReisenUdongeinlnaba]

And then there were none

[kombajndosalatek]

[StrangerForever85]

Is it just me, or do they both cast John Cleese in the goofiest roles AND hit him with the chicken most often?

[frienkink]

[geekgal1000]

[littlekid30]

[colakid56]

[phlaminngoo]

I like how Eric Idle starts laughing almost maniacally, like he has some diabolical plot....and then just says "Lookout of the yard....very good..."

[TheBonaparteReport]

[CiG801]

Now, allduce me to introlow myself... I'm sorry. Allsow me to my duceintro-INTROME to luce my low-OW ME to you introcuhmy-excuse a moment. *readjusts brain*

[TsMunch]

[Monaqute]

[dproctor18]

Induce me to intrallow myself

[saturnstargirl]

Constables: 13

Super Intendants: 9

[spacecowboy5000]

The Python were experts at mangling the English language. A simple switch of words made for some outstanding comedy.

[saturnstargirl]

@spacecowboy5000 Exactly. The Pythons had some jokes that were so simple, it made them hilarious.

Fire?

Where where?!

[kylezo]

i ask the room to...expect-NOBODY EXPECTS THE SPANISH INQUISITION!!! AMONGST OUR WEAPONRY ARE SUCH ELEMENTS AS...

[tatersalad814]

"Lookout of the Yard"

"Why, what would we see?"

" I'm sorry?"

"What would we see if we look out of the yard?"

[Cybertoco]

Genious concept! It's like if a glitch occurred in Agatha Christie's stories!

[narutofangrl]

So...we're never gonna find out who did it, are we? ^^"

[Aeolixia]

0:00 - 6:20 best part.

[outerspaceoutpost]

I Adore Agatha Christie's storys & plays & I LOVE mysteries, but this sketch was absolutley HYSTERICAL! thanks so very much. Peace be with you.

[katietwotone]

[william59glersh]

This must be when John realised a moustache suited him - he is a completely different person and a completely different look with it!

[tommykl]

[Guyect]

@biggles1111

in this room must the murderer be!

[Bladepaw18]

This is entirely too silly.... but that's the beauty of it! lol

[captainredneck1983]

Take the tablets, Tiger buddy!

[FireEyedMaidOfWar]

In comparison to French or Greek comedies the English are not genuinely funny at all; they just reproduce the madness of the world and try not to take them serious, make strange faces, dull word play and be as they are: Totally neurotic; and still: It is quite funny to watch.

[Bastanr]

Now, i'll duce me to intronow myself

[Bastanr]

Now, i'll duce me to intronow myself

[neoprankster]

I get Connie mixed up with Carol. Why's that?

[Endrawnia]

@yetholm1 aye isnt it great :D

[BTAL1ama]

is it just me or is there a mic above the guy on the right at the very beginning?

[Endrawnia]

@BTAL1ama no i saw it too

[Psychicqueen]

This was the first sketch I ever saw. It was on at 5 am on a Saturday, and I laughed hard til Dad told me to shut up.

[MilliBearson]

I'd even dare to say this is the best sketch ever - please DO NOT delete it from your account @Chadner !!

[joshaf26]

[sPaCeBoYsWaGpOnY]

[pyrochemists]

@Guyect I won't fall for that one

[1234Agen]

''Im afraid i dont follow that at all

[CssHDmonster]

[Zilerte]

That's the origin of the gards' dialogue in Camelot!

[QBisbest]

[HappyGestapo]

[JazzPianist0695]

@HappyGestapo Tiger?!

[HappyGestapo]

@JazzPianist0695 WHERE?!?!?

[IrishN00B]

John Cleese reminds me of David Tennant's Doctor Who... He must have been a great inspiration for David.

This sketch is so funny, I just can't stop laughing. Eric and Michael were always the funniest pythons.

[marcolammers]

the "what body? somebody!" joke is brilliant hehehe

[Zeredek]

Allself me to introlode my body *bang*

[BAE206TRV]

Fantastic, but talking about Detective stories google DCI Stark for a free online thriller!

[BloodyRoxas13]

Lol, his words are getting jumbled! Haha! I just love Monty Python.

Lol@Comment removed by author below XD

[edusuntrebor]

Oh Cleese, just say

"Everyone, just stay here!"

[Geertos13]

i love this sketch ! But, what's the matter with A. Christie ?

[soccerlover1980]

I think as Agatha Christie wrote a lot of whodunits this sketch wants to make fun of this genre.

[Geertos13]

@soccerlover1980 I though so too, but i though it would have been more "Agatha chritian"

[dharmaseed]

What would we see if we lookout of the yard? lol

[kiteStuckOnRoof]

ARGUMENT?!? WHERE!!!!!?!!!!??/9

[evrytingoodinlife]

OKAY!!!! seriously guys, just watch the fricking sketch! if you see a comment made by a troll, then just ignore the goddamn thing! don't get in to a goddamn argument. you guys are fucking retarded, watch it if you want, leave if you don't

[Eggbert1x]

@evrytingoodinlife arguing on the internet is like the special olympics. Even if you win, your still retarded. Argue and the trolls win.

[Wonkapoo]

YOU win, for saying that.

[fh041205]

1:15- what a great sequence........

[HomicidalDwarf]

Seriously. Haven't you got anything better to do than this? Zealously trying to be funny, while you're obviously not, making all sorts of smart-arsed comments, denigrating (unwittingly or entirely by intent) other people with said comments? I'm going to leave this discussion at these easily understandable last words, don't give me a damned reply, I'm sick and damn tired of it. Are you happy now? You, the internet monster, won the troll battle.

[HomicidalDwarf]

If you're trying to be funny, you're horribly bad. A little less self-deprecating humor (useful in small quantities) wouldn't hurt quite anyone.

[HomicidalDwarf]

Primo. There's an aweful lot of them. Secundo. You're taking a quite arrogant know-it-all pov here, and Tertio, you use a lot of troll tricks. Oh yes, my comment about dead people was about you possibly being a bitter old grandpa (given your age, I like to check on people's youtube pages before I slap my arguments clean in their faces) and your, well, saepe dixi, but you do adopt a rather arrogant attitude to other people.

[HomicidalDwarf]

Oh... you're abused are you... you are trolling this particular page you know. No loose-handed father or gunwielding grandmother gives you an excuse for that.

[Eggbert1x]

@HomicidalDwarf Don't argue with trolls. it means they win!

[HomicidalDwarf]

Oh well, I got carried away ...

[HomicidalDwarf]

I think it's quite a success for the intellectual, high-brow people that are MPFC to leave such a stamp on this field of the arts. There's Monty-Pythonesque, but there's no Steptoeesque, is there?

[HomicidalDwarf]

The last 20 hours or so no-one has said anything but you. Are you just trolling the internet because everyone you live with is dead or doesn't want to speak with you because you're a self-centered, gargantuanly unfunny sod with a knack for smarting everybody out?

[HomicidalDwarf]

What the hell?

[HomicidalDwarf]

That's just the greatest thing of all. The fact that absurd, and at the time unpopular comedy won the hearts of millions. It also was one of the most renewing programmes, along with Q5 (I think Spike Milligan, correct me if I'm wrong, o most Revered Kaiser-Pope of all things funny).

[KinkyKinkaid]

Dinkipooxa, is that what you tend to do on a normal basis?

Going around, bashing on people who will never ever read your comments.

Basically an effort in futility if you ask me.

Most of your words will go to waste in this culture, my friend.

Sorry to be so blunt, but it's true.

And I can somewhat see what you are saying, to be honest. A good majority of Monty Python skits both last too long, and are not very funny...

However, they do have a good amount of gems.

[theflyingmusician1]

Dinkipooxa, you dont like it. And? I like it, loads of people like it, if you dont like it then tough. Watch something else. Whats the point of commenting about it?

[radiohead322]

are you insane? why bother posting a billion smart ass comments from years ago when they're just meant as good fun and that people like this sketch, we don't need people like you ruining it.

[stewux]

Well of course, curiosity meant I would read your replies and respond accordingly, haha! Who was I kidding? Can't deny your posts make interesting reading in comparison to the usual abusive diatribe we get on youtube. Your opinions do make interesting reading, but we'll agree to disagree I guess.

I will stick by my point that some of your comments seem a little patronising, but apologise if my own remarks about you came across as offensive.

[HomicidalDwarf]

Listen, Sherlock Einstein, I don't know where you got the title Czar of Comedy, but you shouldn't act all high and mighty against MP aficionado's, simply because you don't like the show. It's not fair.

[stewux]

Finally, I've no doubt you'll come back at me with some smart-arse and patronising response ( that appears to be your style after all ), I may or may not bother to read it, and may or may not bother to respond, who knows? Life, frankly, is too short. That's why if something makes me laugh and smile, I tend to just enjoy it rather than analyse it too deeply.

I'll give you this though.... you got a reaction out of me, credit for that dinkipooxa.

[stewux]

By the way, forgive me but I didn't quite catch your name? Is it Spike Milligan?? Or Peter Sellers perhaps? I am just wondering what it is you have achieved in YOUR life that makes you believe you have the authority to trample over other people's enjoyment of a particular comedy act as if it has no merit whatsoever. John Cleese = multi-millionaire through making a lot of people laugh, and then there's you = ....well, not sure really as I don't know you, I expect you're a decent enough person....

[stewux]

Without wanting to get into a slanging match with you, I have to say that you come across as an EXTREMELY patronising and self-righteous character, the type of person who sits with a group of people in a social gathering and considers themselves to be right on everything, and everyone else to be wrong. Comedy, like anything else, is about opinions. Regardless of yours, Python seemed to do pretty well for themselves, and have clearly brought a lot of pleasure to a lot of people. ( continued )

[stewux]

You have your opinions, ( and plenty of them by the looks of it ), and others have theirs. You're responding to a comment I made so long ago, I can't even remember what it was! But I presume it was to me referring to Cleese as a genius.

Well, if I was to analyse my comment, then yes maybe " genius " is an easily used and exaggerated term. But I consider Cleese and the rest of the Pythons as people who have brought some fun into what can otherwise be a stressful life at times.... ( continued )

[OeditpusRex]

At Oxford, Palin and Jones were part of the Experimental Theatre Company and performed in the Oxford Revue. Before MPFC, They wrote for and/or appeared in "Do Not Adjust Your Set," "The Complete and Utter History of Britain" and "The Frost Report," among other BBC comedy shows.

Idle was a member of the Cambridge Footlights, with Chapman and Cleese. He also wrote for and appeared in "Do Not Adjust Your Set."

Cleese had extensive comedy experience before MPFC, including (more...)

[OeditpusRex]

(con't.) "The Frost Report," "At Last, the 1948 Show" and, on BBC Radio, "I'm Sorry, I'll Read That Again." His entry into BBC Radio was a result of his writing and acting with the Cambridge Footlights Revue, which was so successful it went on tour that year, including an appearance on the Ed Sullivan Show.

Chapman met Cleese in the Cambridge Footlights and teamed with him in "At Last, the 1948 Show," "The Frost Report" and "I'm Sorry, I'll Read That Again."

So much for their backgrounds.

[dharmaseed]

Allow me to introduce myslef, I'm assistant chief constable There'samanbehindyer.

[Pseudologic]

So you're saying some people actually watch MP because they feel pressured by society? What a stupid argument once again. MP is an underdog, always was. Do you really think people watch it because they think it makes them look cool?

[Pseudologic]

So your argument is that because it's popular it's not funny? Weak argument...

In my profession, only those can give an analytical opinion, who have accomplished the title in the profession. That is, if you have no title, you really are noone to analyze those with the achievement. Perhaps you're just confused because they don't have a laugh track like that show you like, so you have no idea where to laugh?

[Pseudologic]

Just say that you don't get it. They have nothing to prove to you, a nobody without a talent.

[Pseudologic]

Thank you I will, I have seen it countless times, given that I own the DVDs, but I haven't seen them in a while and I'll much enjoy doing it again. And I think that the writing is brilliant in Fawlty Towers, which I can't say about that show that you have on your homepage. Dreadful boring show. Just admit you're mad that Pythons made fun of it.

[Pseudologic]

I believe you need to be above a certain education level to appreciate them.

[francovance1]

Intellect needs to be reasonably high too.

[hurricanejbb]

Allow self me to introbody my duce. Must ask that nobody be leaving the room as it is with you in it.

[ilovebeer111]

What Body ????

SOMEBODY

[jamespb1]

"I am Inspector Tiger."

"Tiger?!"

"WHERE??!!"

[dragongirl1159]

"Everyone must leave the room as it is...with them in it" rofl. one of my favorite Monty Python lines ever.

[sgste]

LOL

John Cleese is awesomeness!

[PrudenceNumberNine]

Inspector Tiger has me in stitches!

"Somebody. In this room must the murderer be. The murderer of the body is somebody in this room, which nobody must leave- Leave the body in the room, not to be left by anybody- Nobody leaves anybody or the body with somebody..." and so on and so forth. That and "Me tiger. You Jane."

[Rediamondrum]

This is sherlock holmes.

[TheMursk]

kyllä sitä

[lemoncurry19]

That's not the Agatha Chrisitie sketch!! The Agatha Chrisite sketch is the one with the train timetables!! I was so happy thinking it was that one...

[skythrock]

A bit of Holy Grail influence in this scene

[redsox1006]

[bobo9000]

That is all.

[Thegreatkrok]

[Kevin90028]

I can really relate to this sketch. My last name is theresamanbehindyou, and people are always making fun of it. I wish they would stop.

[Manny0Calavera]

You're not going to catch us with an old one like that ;D
