Great to see this visually--for years I only knew of this sketch from the "Dead Parrot Society" album. However, some key scenes were left out like Graham Chapman's attack of flatus and Michael Palin's "gaiters" scene. In order for these posts to be effective, you have to leave the funniest parts IN.

What's that stuff at the end? I'd like more of that, please. D:

Simply wonderful :-)

I think it's actually Neil Innes, the "Seventh Python". He wrote their music and toured with them (he was Sir Robin's minstrel in Holy Grail). He also is one of the policemen carrying the coffin.

This was done in 1979 as part of "The Secret Policeman's Ball", a charity event to benefit Amnesty International.
