Good stuff! Dad brought me up watching Monty Python, and I think John Cleese is hilarious. Wish he'd made more Faulty Towers - 9 wasn't it?

There are some classics in that lot Eric, thanks for the link.

It's really to look like your working when I'm laughing at those out-takes.

Brilliant stuff.

Fawlty Towers is quite possibly the funniest TV series ever made.

A great find!!

There were only 12 episodes and they have been described (on the CD's liner notes ) as the funniest 6 hours of TV ever made. Pretty close to the truth.

I heard about Monty Python and the Goons from an English teacher at high school. For years there we couldn't walk into a classroom without someone starting on 'Is this the right room for an argument...'. However my parents thought Python was just too weird and so I had to sneak watching the show. I did get to go to the Village Twin at Double Bay to see Holy Grail because at that time Python fans were such a small cult there was no hope of it coming to Wollongong, it didn't even get to central Sydney. 'Life of Brian' changed all that.
