The Parrot Sketch for the film was indeed filmed in my aunts pet shop on the Caledonian Road in London, named Child's Pet Shop (her married name), it, like the parrot, "is no more". We think it is now a Turkish coffee shop.
As a kid in the 1970's I worked there assisting my now deceased aunty. They had a very big reticulated python in a large fish tank. It was fed on live rats.
Nothing better than Monty Python. The worst Python sketch knocks the socks off anything. The one thing I'd like to know is where they got the dead Gold and Blue Macaw? Did one of them chat up a vet and ask him/her to hold onto the next dead parrot he comes across 'cause they've got this great idea for a pet shop sketch....
Genius!!!!!

But he's not a lumberjack, he's not okay.
He works all night and he sleeps all day.
He sells kitties, he feeds some fish

If you want to get anything done in this country, you're gotta complain until your blue in the mouth.
