Monty Python's Graham Chapman on "The Big Show" (1980)

One of Graham Chapman's short skits from NBC's "The Big Show" -- a 1980 attempt to bring back the old-time TV variety show. And please don't bother asking -- this is the only Graham Chapman skit from "The Big Show" that I have (and also the only part of "The Big Show" that I have).

Back in 1980 I recorded most of Graham's skits from this show, but the videotape was eaten by a demonized VCR. Fortunately this one skit was recorded onto a different tape, which will probably survive long after you and I are mere memories.

Isn't life futile?

@yasviridov It's "I'm sorry I'm not a very good liar. I mean I'm sorry I didn't buy a spare tyre."

Thanks for this, but not Graham at his best

Just normal rat poison would kill a person, but I guess that isn't the point!
