Toad's pleading not to be taken away is so Pythonesque. I guess it's all those years hearing the guys impersonating women that makes that vocal tone of Jones so funny.
@Inkyminkyzizwoz I know. They changed it a lot from the book. The Weasels didn't open a dog food factory in the book either, and Toad only got 20 years in jail. He also didn't fly off in a plane at the end. But that doesn't stop it being funny.
@verkaforever I've seen at least four different film versions of this story, but it's so long since I read the book that I haven't a clue which version is closest!
Such Nostalgia!

@Inkyminkyzizwoz it could be 100 toad years, and one human year is five toad years, so I guess about twenty human years

Toad (the character) isn't much of an actor. What was the point of him dressing up as a tea lady if he wasn't going to act like one?
