John Cleese once said that he thought The 7 Deadly Sins were his foundation of comedy. I guess that's why at least 3 of them were the focus of this sketch: wrath expressed by George on the TV set and by Gladys with the rolled up paper, lust in the form of their interest in the subject, vanity in George's "Tell him I already got one" and gluttony in George's "Oh, I thought you said bacon." I love intelligent humor which is why I've enjoyed this series for over 40 years!
The whelk is nothing but a homosexual of the worst kind. This gay boy of the gastropods, this queer crustacean, this mincing mollusk, this screaming, prancing, limp-wristed queen of the deep MAKES ME SICK!!!
What Terry Jones just did with the TV, Ive been wanting to do to my boyfriend's XBOX. It's not that it's a big deal really, he plays it more than he sleeps, no joke.
@Rita3500 - They are dressed up as ballroom dancers. The numbers on their backs are the contestant numbers. The reason it is written on Graeme's back is because it's Monty Python.
@Rita3500 "Come Dancing!" was a very popular TV show at that time and, as a result, one of Monty Python's favorite targets. That's why Graham isn't wearing a sign like Terry: "Gladys" is obviously a ballroom dancing addict! Love how self-involved "George" is to focus on his mustache and his love of bacon and sex! Brilliant sketch!
Monty Python: the Gods of humor. Don't u love when they stuff chickens or turkeys, they stuff in random things [bananas, cats, too much stuffing] I LOVE U PYTHON!!!
"Frankly, I don't know how the female limpet has time to adhere to the rock face!" It's amazing how John can be so serious even while going on like he does.
This video is DISGUSTING!!!!! >: (
But far more interesting!!! : D
