Yes, its that time again. Not as funny as the Eurovision Song Contest, but has its moments:

It depends on your preferences... If you're only halfways into medieval history/culture and/or Arthurian legend, Holy Grail is tough to beat.

Life of Brian has a lot more bite when it comes to politics, though.

Forgot about that, could be derived from this?

I remember Malcom Muggeridge. Not sure what his claim to fame was.
Typical of the intellectuals that thought the BBC was their natural home.

EDIT:
Nice bit of English snobbery when Muggeridge has a go at Clees about his second-rate public school(private in the UK, very expensive). 7:14 in.

Forgot how class ridden the uk was then, not much better now.

Another EDIT:
Interesting comment from Palin about taking current English situations and putting them back in historical situations. 4:20 in.

Best get this in:

Indeed a good movie, sadly not a happy ending.

Is it really banned?

He's not the Messiah he's a very naughty boy! - YouTube

Is it just me that finds it weird that people would cut out certain 'bits' out of this footage, considering what else is available on the internet?

It is odd, I used it as its short and has the relevant dialogue.

The editor is a very naughty boy!

Actually, the best bits are missing. And I'm of course referring to "We are all individuals" and "Are you a virgin?"

And I'm of course referring to "We are all individuals"

I'm not!

 

[Notebook]

True, but I just wanted the punch-line.

I'm Spartacus!
