I've always liked monty python my husband has always hated it with a passion. However even he laughed when I was watching Life of Brian ( he was in the room on the computer) and they went into Biggus Dickus.:yh_giggle
Blessed be.

Oh Monty Python is hilarious, though you do have to have a certain sense of humour to really love what they did. The films in my opinion aren't as good as the sketches, but they are still pretty funny. I still love The Holy Grail and the part with the killer rabbit and when they have to answer questions to cross the bridge at the end, they still crack me up everytime I watch them.

I like some of the Monty Python sketches. I would take out all the blasphemous bits (the films are the worst for that) and then it would be good viewing for me. I don't like the playing music on hamsters (or whatever they were) sketch.

My favourites include: The parrot sketch; the sketch about the words woody and tinny; the ministry of funny walks; Hell's grannies; the camp soldiers drill; the man who goes into different rooms such as the argument room; the Palin sketch where he's talking about the weather and he pulls out a weather chart to give us the full weather forecast. In the live shows, I like the cheese shop.

Not just any rabbit.
