The Parrot Sketch

[ConaMeade]

194 people think they are in Bolton but in fact they're in Ipswich.

[MessiahComing]

@ConaMeade You mean Notlob

[efraimgarner]

I want this video on my Asha 200 phone.

[l33tshinobialchemist]

I am not prepared to keep clicking the videos to the right as they have become too silly

[LombaxKat]

194 people bought a dead parrot. 

[WhiteJarrah]

@LombaxKat 194 people are dead parrots.

[vegetablenut]

Still think this is hilarious

[Guitaredwolfie]

The awkward moment when your given a script for this in a mock-exam, so your trying not to burst out laughing when trying to analyze it.

Then you get your exam back three days later with: "In this exam, you get too focused on your enthusiasm for Monty Python.".

Note to self- if you get Monty Python in the real exam- die, for no man can deter you from your enthusiasm.

[betian1983]

194 people are pining for the fjords

[fyrings1]

Hilarious! I wish they made comedians as funny as this today. :D

[TheWisemonkey8]

The fucking thing is dead… you idiots… enough of the armature psychology…

[VitoseGG]

@TheWisemonkey8 Excuse me, it's irrelevant, isn't it?

[TheWisemonkey8]

@VitoseGG surreal comedy... it fits with the video...

[Xrulerguy]

All the dislikes are from the parrot on different accounts.

[32Cinderpelt]

XD When he starts banging the parrot on the counter my brother and I just started cracking up!

[NeytiriPhoenix]

How can their be people who dislike this!?

[shinyblackbirds]

what its not even a parrot its stuffed!!!!! lol

[buckwild104]

"its stone dead" LOL

[grevejp44]

should've bought a swallow.

[draconisprinceps]

@grevejp44 African or European?

[IcEye89]

"I'm sorry I have a cold" and "it was a pun" do not qualify as excuses in court. Palindromes however do. Sarah Palin lives in a Palindome. But only because she had been nailed there. Also putting 4000 Volts through Sarah Palin makes you go to court and you need a good excuse then.

[MitchellI503]

189 people got sent to Ipswich :D

[Ginger33333]

NOTLOB!

[AmazingBlink182]

"Voom, this parrot wouldn't voom if i put 4 thousand volts through it"

[Theninja347]

"I wish to register a complain!"

I love the way he says that :D

[Calriec]

"It's stunned." My favorite line.

[juliantrevin38]

This video is a favorite on Kuala Lumpur

[AnEpicBloke360]

i got shown dis at sk00l for english

[gmercury]

POLLY!!!

[jennychan202]

"THIS......IS AN EX.PARROT."

[Kailon791]

188 people got a slug

[ArmlessOctopus19]

"look matey, this bird wouldn't voom if I put 4000 volts through it"

[camobeast100]

Fun Fact: Micheal Palin (the shopowner) was actually considered for the role of the Eighth Doctor (the doctor from the 1996 television movie), but he turned it down.

[MissMarsattack]

Pining for the fjords!! :D

[homiex04]

ITS BLEEDING DEMISED

[WingedDrant]

I love that he finds the cage in the shop again. Nice meta humour all around on this show

[landlvids]

"It'd be pushing up daisies if you hadn't nailed it to the perch." too funny!

[milesmouse72]

THIS...IS....AN....EX...PARROT­!!!!



[EmilieMarieLykkeDuus]

"And I discovered that the only reason that it had been sitting on its perch in the first place, was that it had been nailed there". xD Hahahahah..... xD

[girona25]

This is an all time classic.

[MomoTheBellyDancer]

Get on with it!

[Ahseyo]

187 people thought polly really was alive...

[Fazorification]

this is even funnier because that race of parrots have been extinct for 55 million years!

[meatballeatter]

Wish stuff could make laugh like this old school skit

[JDarach]

I'll always wonder where they got the idea for thi sketch.

[SkataKPonos]

Now that's what I call a Dead Parrot!!!

[kennylives09]

How much would you love to work in a pet shop and try that with customers

[fisheloph]

Pinin' for the fjords!

[HarukaChan]

I laugh so much I cry every time. Never gets old.

[yummygrapefruity]

One of my fav Monty skits 

[jjeremmy]

14,047 people have a pining for the fjords.

[Travellingdumbell]

I dunno, I watched the whole thing, besides the accents I could find anything laugh out loud about it.

[FightingJEDI]

@Travellingdumbell

Eh. No one can force you to like something.

[Inkyminkyzizwoz]

@Travellingdumbell 'I could find anything laugh out loud with it' What did you find then?

[Travellingdumbell]

@Inkyminkyzizwoz CouldNT sorry about that, painkillers are in full force! Eh , it takes quite alot to make me LOL.

[flapoofeletory]

(the only great line). but i have a complaint about this skit. ill tell u whats wrong with it, its not funny.

[jak795]

@flapoofeletory then why are you even here?

[knoxoilngas]

@flapoofeletory Of course everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but if you don't find this funny then your sense of humor has bleedin' demised. It's passed on. It is no more. It has expired and gone to meet its maker. It is bereft of life. It has run down the curtain and joined the choir invisible. It has CEASED TO BE.

[micvrom]

@knoxoilngas It's ex-sense of humor.

[AlexanderHynes]

@flapoofeletory Why? Explain yourself.

[AlexanderHynes]

@AlexanderHynes You own birds don't you... sorry.

[ArmlessOctopus19]

Look matey, this parrot wouldn't bloom if i put four thousand volts through it

that's my favorite line, always gets me laughing

[gary1972elley]

HILLARIOUS!! this is an x parrot what a classic! LOL

[Xstrain]

[nevets4ever]

Epic...one of the best MP skits.

[FesterBable]

Is this supposed to be better quality than what other people upload on YouTube? That is what you state in your description, but I have seen better. It isn't even in full screen format.

[vfdsunny9]

"POLLLLLLLLLLLY" Epic :D

[MattProvencal]

comedic gold

[recyclecongress]

"This parrot is NO MORE... it has CEASED TO BE!"

[jennychan202]

@recyclecongress

[bassben04]

BEREFT OF LIFE IT RESTS IN PEACE!

[bahriboy]

Similar Pet Shops Ltd

LOL

[wafflewaffle90]

my favourite Python has got to be John. he's just so..... indescribably perfect at everything he does. his voice, his physical movement, his incredible acting skills, just all the qualities about him tie together so perfectly that he should have a shrine in every city in the world, even though he's not dead yet.

just saying.

[Starscream3352]

@wafflewaffle90

I am not dead yet, I can dance and I can sing!

[zombiefan011]

Although about 50% of the comedy probably stems from their accents, this is comedic gold!!!

[Nyarlathotep9]

Absolute classic.

[pe6obutilkata]

fuckin epic

[DaveN2610]

My names Dave. This video just made me pregnant.

[VampirePrincess2913]

"How 'bout a slug?

[TheGapminder]

I'm a qualified Brain Surgeon

Notlob

[BlueMoonKitten]

Well i'd better replace it then...

[jetseekers]

I dont think that that parrot would VOOM even if some one put 400,000,000,000,000,000,000,00­0 volts throgh it.

[TheThousandthPrinny]

@jetseekers Of course it wouldn't. It would be fried by that much electricity.

[gulledbeatle]

eric idle is so hot

[Katie01197]

Happy Birthday to John Cleese!

(Born October 27th 1939)

[system0system0]

Now thats what a call a dead parrot.

[marshieATC]

This parrot is no more! It has have ceased to be! Its expired and gone to meet its maker!

[freaklatinus]

well, if the parrot wasn't dead before, it will be now!

[TheInnocence111]

Honestly, this version is much better acted and funnier than the movie version

[Jesus616Freak]

I love the part with the parrot

[NinjaFerrari]

D: I was watching this video just right now and right at the part where the guy says "And right when I bought it-" The video cut off and the screen said "An error occurred."

I lol'd at the perfect timing.

[HTprods]

My form tutor played this in class on Wednesday and I was the only one who found it funny and I was the only one who recognitised it as Monty Python. He said, after playing it, that he thinks it's an overrated sketch and it isn't very funny. He has lost all respect from me.

[Hiiamhello]

I'll tell you what's wrong with it........ it's dead that's what's wrong with it.

[wahaya2]

GET ON WITH IT!

Graham Chapman's voice is wonderful XD

[shaunhailey1]

[ctiyboy26]

181 people have run down the curtain and joined the choir invisible!

[powderman426]

This routine reminds me of the republicans. They love to deny reality.

[Pellefantman]

[CanucksDESI]

[ParallelPain]

179 people nailed a dead parrot inside a bird cage and got complained they sold dead parrots.

[CrouchieAtlas]

I honestly don't understand why this is supposed to be funny.

It reminds me of the the humour of Catch 22- Tedious and utterly pointless.

[oldjizzy]

"The palindrome of Bolton, would be NOTLOB." ---

Just too much! lol!!!

[nambreadnam]

Nope. Chuck Testa.

Why the hell does every video featuring British cultural references and influences degenerate into a 'who won WWII' argument?? It tells me two things: 1)people are morons 2) US and UK have fuck all in common, if all we have to talk about is WWII :)
