I've seen this sketch a hundred times, and every time I expect Graham to say "Doris Day goes up to Rock Hudson, AND SHE...PIDDLES ON HIM!"

Terry Gilliam was so underutilized. I love his animations, but I wish he was in more sketches. He had a great comedic expression.

That's a good strategy for when you're put in a tense situation like Terry Jones' character was: Make up a word to express something you simply can;t, like "Splunge." I like how John Cleese bounces up a bit when he is called on at 2:51.

I've always felt like this was an underappreciated sketch. This was one of the times when MP just went for it, cranking up the silly to 11, damn the torpedoes, and it paid off. You have to relish the utter lunacy of the producer and the gibbering existential cowardice of the writers. For some reason, that "pencil droppers, eh?" gets me every time.

Been watching these guys since 1973,when I was eleven. Know all the skits and lines by heart. Still one of the funniest shows ever. A few years before he died,Graham Chapman spoke at Dalhousie University in my home city of Halifax,Nova Scotia,Canada. I wanted to go but for some reason didn't. Still regret it.

Yay! Gilliam in live action!

"If there's one thing I can't stand, it's people who have heartattacks!" xD I can safely say that I love these men to death.

Beautiful. Just... My favorite MP sketch of all time; dead parrots, cheese shops, argument clinics and crunchy frogs in all glory, but sometimes, you just need something a little more conventional to make you smile. Like an absolutely wonderful Graham Chapman (he was so calm in his other roles, aside from in the Flying Lesson, as either an extreme authority figure, extremely silly or an extreme victim...seeing him so threatening was refreshing.) yelling at a table of cowering Pythons.

"Dorris Dog kisses Rock Tree" I think he went a little crazy there😂

That's probably pretty close to what actually happens.
