King Arthur: You fight with the strength of many men, Sir Knight.
[the Black Knight doesn't respond]
King Arthur: I am Arthur, King of the Britons.
[No response]
King Arthur: I seek the bravest and the finest knights in the land who will join me in my court at Camelot.
[No response]
King Arthur: You have proved yourself worthy. Will you join me?
[No response]
King Arthur: You make me sad. So be it. Come, Patsy!
[Attempts to get around the Black Knight]
Black Knight: None shall pass.
King Arthur: What?
Black Knight: None shall pass!
King Arthur: I have no quarrel with you, good Sir Knight. But I must cross this bridge.
Black Knight: Then you shall die.
King Arthur: I command you, as King of the Britons, to stand aside!
Black Knight: I move for no man.
King Arthur: So be it!
[They fight until Arthur cuts off Black Knight's left arm]
King Arthur: Now, stand aside, worthy adversary!
Black Knight: 'Tis but a scratch!
King Arthur: A scratch? Your arm's off!
Black Knight: No, it isn't!
King Arthur: Well, what's that then?
King Arthur: I've had worse.
King Arthur: You liar!
Black Knight: Come on, you pansy!
[They fight again. Arthur cuts off the Knight's right arm]
King Arthur: Victory is mine!
[Kneels to pray]
King Arthur: We thank thee, Lord, that in thy mercy -
[Cut off by the Knight kicking him]
Black Knight: Come on, then.
King Arthur: What?
Black Knight: Have at you!
King Arthur: You are indeed brave, Sir Knight, but the fight is mine!
Black Knight: Oh, had enough, eh?
King Arthur: Look, you stupid bastard. You've got no arms left!
Black Knight: Right, I'll do you for that!
King Arthur: You'll what?
Black Knight: Come here!
King Arthur: What are you gonna do, bleed on me?
Black Knight: I'm invincible!
King Arthur: ...You're a loony.

....the Spanish Inquisition! Every Halloween my High School bud C.R. would have a costume party at his house in First Colony subdivision. I think this is either from my junior year or senior year. I decided to come as "The Spanish Inquisition", from the Monty Python sketch of the same name. We were all massively Monty Python geeks in High School, watching it religiously on PBS every weekend, and The Benny Hill Show on the WB, Channel 39. Only place on network/public television you could catch brief frontal female nudity without paying for cable. Partial answer to a High School boy's dream...(we were all horny little bastards and mostly still are, just less dorky).
This orange scarf-beclad brontosaurus stands outside the Carnegie Museum of Natural History in Pittsburgh. Devotees of Monty Python may remember Anne Elk’s Theory of Brontosauruses. A. Elk, brackets Miss brackets, was a most fearsome John Cleese in drag. She/he postulated that all brontosauruses are thin at one end, much thicker in the middle and then thin again at the far end. The evidence here supports that theory, which was hers.

Tourist shop, Stoupa, Peloponnesos. An English speaker was trying to engage this caged parrot in conversation - without much success. It immediately made me think about the Monthy Python: Dead parrot sketch ;-)
Of course this grooming parrot isn’t dead but then again it doesn’t have much of a life, residing in a cage.

Oslo International Film Festival is celebrating the 40-year anniversary of Monty Python and the 30-year anniversary of the premiere of Life of Brian, with a special screening in cooperation with Cinemateket and Lille Måne Forlag. Terry Jones is visiting Oslo to promote the Norwegian edition of his latest book The Barbarians, and he will also be attending the screening of Life of Brian at Filmens Hus on the 24th of November. Life of Brian is the now well-known story of Brian Cohen, the man mistaken for the Messias. Life of Brian was banned in Norway in 1980, and was not released in its original form until 2004.
DIRECTOR
Terry Jones (b. 1942, Wales) is most famous for his work with Monty Python, but he has also worked as TV-host, director, political commentator and as a writer of both children’s books and history books. In addition, he directed Monthy Python and the Holy Grail (1975, with Terry Gilliam), The Meaning of Life (1983), Erik the Viking (1989), and The Wind in the Willows (1996).
A Monty Python character. (Gumby). Haven't drawn anything in years, and it probably shows(!), but this is to mark the current reunion of the remaining members of Monty Python's Flying Circus.
And Saint Attila raised the hand grenade up on high, saying, 'O Lord, bless this Thy hand grenade that, with it, Thou mayest blow Thine enemies to tiny bits in Thy mercy.'
And the Lord did grin, and the people did feast upon the lambs and sloths and carp and anchovies and orangutans and breakfast cereals and fruit bats and large chu--
[...]
And the Lord spake, saying, 'First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin. Then, shalt thou count to three. No more. No less. Three shalt be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, nor either count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then, lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who, being naughty in My sight, shall snuff it.'
-- Book of Armaments 2:9-21
I'm going straight to Hell.
So what do you do when you're walking through a Denver bookstore and you see one of your creative idols? You take his picture, of course.
Me: Mr. Cleese, it's a great pleasure to meet you ...
John: Oh, please. I've been such a mean person for 71 years ...
Me. Well, then you're the most magnificent mean bastard there has ever been.
John: Well, yes. I like that!

This passage originally led to the Castillo San Jorge where the Inquisition held its trials.
As Monty Python pointed out, the Inquisition was completely unexpected.

43 years ago, a television show debuted with a old man coming out of water, saying "It's" and then cut away to opening animation and Sousa's march. Monty Python's Flying Circus had arrived and totally changed comedy. I have seen all the episodes and movies, as you can see by the DVD collection (favorite is disc 3 - which has the Dead Parrot Sketch and the Lumberjack Song). I also have their recordings and books.
