Great Compilation of Sketches from the TV Show, 10 December 1999

Hillarious compilation of sketches from the 1969-1974 TV show "Monty Python's Flying Circus." Steve Martin hosts this show which features the greatest sketch the Spanish Inquizition, and the Lumberjack Song. TWO greatest sketches: the Spanish Inquizition and the Lumberjack song. Yes, and the Ministry of Silly Walks. THREE greatest sketches: the Spanish Inquizition, the Lumberjack Song, and the Ministry of Silly Walk and How Not to be Seen. No, AMONGST the greatest Monty Python Sketches are the Spanish Inquizition, the Lumberjack Song, the Ministry of Silly Walks, and How Not to Be Seen and Raymond Luxury-Yacht. Ohh, forget it. Anyway, we get some of the most famous Python Sketches, except for the Dead Parrot Sketch (hence the title). We also get parts of the German special "Monty Python's Flindering Zirkus" untranslated. After the sketch Steve says, "How exciting." He also tells us where the Pythons are now: they're in a cupboard. "Sad, isn't it?"
