"I wish to register a complaint" What a legendary line, everyone knows what's coming. Nothing beats Python

This is just a war between Palin and Cleese to see who breaks first.

my friend and i were there 2 nights before, and Cleese had to get some of the lines from the audience...but two of the biggest cheers of the night were when he 'wished to register a complaint,' and mentioning about how the parrot had 'expired and gone to meet dr Chapman'

“You should know that, you run a pet shop!”

It's only right that the dead parrot went to meet its creator, Dr Chapman.

Apparently the Daily Mail gave an unfavorable review to Python's performance after one of their first shows at the 02. Which is why Cleese singled him out in the brief pause.

There was another section after that that they cut on the DVD, yet kept for the CD, where Palin says ‘This won’t get us any good reviews’ and Cleese replies back ‘What do you mean, we’ve already had two bad ones’.

I'm not British so I might just be talking out of my ass, but the last place I'd ever go to for information on anything is the alleged newspaper known as the Daily Mail.

Looks like Michael expected the 'parrot bashing' to go on longer....love how they cracked each other up by delivering deadpan lines.

Gulp. Dr. Chapman. If you haven't read about Cleese's eulogy for Graham C, it's worth reading. Can't imagine how damned funny it was when it happened.

You got here because Dutch TV was showing Monty Python's Flying Circus reruns while our man Guido was inventing a nice new language in Amsterdam during Christmas vacation 1989-1990.

I love when Cabaret artists laugh during sketches because they forgot lines or made some mistake✌️ That's absolutely better than all sketch😎 Btw. Rest In Peace dr. Chapman✌️🕊️👍

I'd like to think Dr Chapman gave them a thumbs back

As a person, who worked at cinema in Czechia in 2014 and was responsible for correct timing of czech subtitles for the live show, I can confirm, that some lines (and their laughter) WEREN´T in the script. :-D You cannot imagine the panic, when you have full theater which is waiting for translation and actors go totally off the script and you just HOPE they will restore the order soon... :-D :-D

I love this sketch so much 😂

Thanks for reposting this. I don't know if this is the video I remember but it's good to see this version again.

You clearly see that palin lost it, when john held the parrot right under his nose for so long. It was perfectly a second too long, which threw him off.👍

This makes me so happy! :D

Absolutely brillant. I love this Sketch 🤣👍

My favourite sketch from monty python he deceased he is no more this a late parrot

I heard this sketch a million times and it's funnier every time I watch it

Does anybody have the original uncut version of this sketch? (Where Michael Palin discusses the 'oxygen of publicity')

I took a pair of defective shoes back recently to an up-market shop. 'Look,' I said, 'See where the heel edging is not sealed. It's going to rub.' So they gave the offending shoe a glance, and said they couldn't see it. So I stuck my finger under the flap, and they still said it was all right. When I stood my ground, they tried to sell me a different pair of replacement shoes, which I did not want. Then they advised a ridiculously expensive pair of heel grips, to cover the fault. I refused, left, and considered setting fire to the shop. After some desperate experiments with glue, in the end I threw the expensive shoes away. Plus ca change...!

As John Cleese goes on with the list of cheese, I feel hungry though I don't particularly like cheese.

Shame they missed out the punchline of the cheese sketch. ‘How come you call this a cheese shop’ ‘well its so clean’ ‘ its certainly uncontaminated by cheese’.

Yes, Michael remarks "This won't get us good reviews." Cleese responds "What are you talking about? We've already had two bad ones!"

Does anybody have this this on DVD or Blu-ray?

Interesting that they changed the "nonsense cheese" (except for that one, those are all very real cheeses). Ironically, nowadays there very well may be such a thing as Japanese Sage Derby (Japan's cheese industry is now fairly extensive, if there is a market for Sage Derby there, someone might actually make it.)
