Indeed. Cleese and Boothe honed that script to perfection. :wink:

Just been watching this on DVD with Cleese's commentary. He's still over the moon with Andrew Sachs portrayal of Manuel.

Personally I don't think British comedy got any better than:

I agree. Used to laugh until crying watching that and it was a family thing, all gathered round the television to laugh, several generations in tears. He shouldn't have come to Hollywood, though. My opinion.

That nitwit Katy Brand has been having me laughing recently even though I don't want to be laughing. :shock: :roll: :twisted:

Somehow she was awarded a degree in theology at Oxford. Something terribly useful, I'm sure. But I can't help but think that tongue opened doors for her. Not that I am prudish against such things. I just think there should be some sort of indication on her diploma. You know, to make it clear all those credits earned for hours kneeling weren't spent just in prayer.

Probably says more about how much theology has lowered it's standards.

Far be it from me to criticise religion but we sort of need those types around who are willing to accommodate. I can't think of a time when religion touched me where I wanted to be touched.
