Good to hear that the Monty Python Team are reuniting for a one of live show
While most castle scenes in the movie Monty Python and the Holy Grail (1975) were filmed in and around Doune Castle, Castle Stalker appears in the final scene as "The Castle of Aaaaarrrrrrggghhh"
Remember these quotes from the film
The home plate at Van Cleve Park is actually made of wood, which is unusual. It also made me think of some classic Monty Python and the Holy Grail:
BEDEVERE
Wait. Wait ... tell me, what also floats on water?
ALL
Bread? No, no, no. Apples .... gravy ... very small rocks ...
ARTHUR
A duck.
They all turn and look at ARTHUR. BEDEVERE looks up very impressed.
BEDEVERE
Exactly. So... logically ...
FIRST VILLAGER
(beginning to pick up the thread)
If she ... weighs the same as a duck ... she's made of wood.
BEDEVERE
And therefore?
ALL
A witch!
"Follow. But. Follow only if ye be men of valour,
for the entrance to this cave is guarded by a creature so foul,
so cruel that no man yet has fought with it and lived.
Bones of full fifty men lie strewn about its lair. So, brave knights,
if you do doubt your courage or your strength, come no further,
for death awaits you all with nasty, big, pointy teeth."
Run away! Run away!
I think this may be the bunny from Monty Python and the Holy Grail. I didn't see his sharp pointy teeth, but then he never opened his mouth. Those eyes are pure black pools of evil. (or is it cuteness? no, I'm pretty sure it's evil)
My Ministry of Silly Walks vignette as featured on the front page of the business section of NRC Handelsblad (an evening newspaper in The Netherlands). Thanks to Martin Jaspers for sending this to me and translating the headline, "A futuristic police car doesn't sell."
I begged Evelyn for at least a year to record this for me, and one day she finally did it for my birthday. The recording has been trimmed to fit the one minute restraint...She learned this Monty Python skit one afternoon, apparently without breaking a sweat. The image is an oil painting she recently did of herself at the age of 2.
She is a scholar of British humor with a particular focus on Monty Python and the Bonzo Dog Doodah Band.
I spent the day trying not to move that much, taking paracetamol and nurofen in turns to dull the pain. These heatwraps that my husband went out and got for me were brilliant, at least I was able to stand up without shooting pains all over my body (long enough to get this photo!). I just wish I knew how I did it, as one minute I was fine the next I was double up in pain. Grr I hate back pain:-)
I am trying my first month for MSH and when "What have the Romans ever done for us?" quote came up, I immediately thought of the wheel, roads and aqueducts, but wanted something a little different . So came up with medicine.
MONTY PYTHON'S VIEW
REG: Yeah. All right, Stan. Don't labour the point. And what have they ever given us in return?!
XERXES: The aqueduct?
REG: What?
XERXES: The aqueduct.
REG: Oh. Yeah, yeah. They did give us that. Uh, that's true. Yeah.
COMMANDO #3: And the sanitation.
LORETTA: Oh, yeah, the sanitation, Reg. Remember what the city used to be like?
REG: Yeah. All right. I'll grant you the aqueduct and the sanitation are two things that the Romans have done.
MATTHIAS: And the roads.
REG: Well, yeah. Obviously the roads. I mean, the roads go without saying, don't they? But apart from the sanitation, the aqueduct, and the roads--
COMMANDO: Irrigation.
XERXES: Medicine.
COMMANDOS: Huh? Heh? Huh...
COMMANDO #2: Education.
COMMANDOS: Ohh...
REG: Yeah, yeah. All right. Fair enough.
COMMANDO #1: And the wine.
COMMANDOS: Oh, yes. Yeah...
FRANCIS: Yeah. Yeah, that's something we'd really miss, Reg, if the Romans left. Huh.
COMMANDO: Public baths.
LORETTA: And it's safe to walk in the streets at night now, Reg.
FRANCIS: Yeah, they certainly know how to keep order. Let's face it. They're the only ones who could in a place like this.
COMMANDOS: Hehh, heh. Heh heh heh heh heh heh heh.
REG: All right, but apart from the sanitation, the medicine, education, wine, public order, irrigation, roads, a fresh water system, and public health, what have the Romans ever done for us?

Drew Carey and Eric Idle caught in conversation.
In the Ricardo Mantalban Theater lobby, after the Sunday afternoon performance of An Evening Without Monty Python. Drew Carey was there, I presume, because Alan Tudyk, a "Whose Line" alumnus, was in the cast.

The multi-coloured shops in Neal's Yard, Covent Garden, London. I didn't notice it at the time, but there's a small blue Monty Python plaque above Neal's Yard Remedies. Apparently the studios where the show was produced were here.
Hey...I actually did a FGR shot again!
This really isn't my tshirt...it' Jerry's. I couldn't find my "Fechez la vache" shirt; must be underneath a pile of laundry. Either of them is appropriate for my current location in the space/time continuum.
