I'd watch these sketches as a kid on t.v.,and laugh my head off! Now I'm fifty something and still laughing my head off at it!😂 we need them now more than ever,in this crazy mean world 🌎 as we are truly in times where,,if you don't laugh,you cry. Have a happy day!❤🇬🇧
"I'm on a cycling tour of North Cornwall, taking in Bude..." FYI, all the places he crashes are in Devon, not Cornwall. Just an added comedic detail that may be missed if you don't know the area.
Very true indeed ... any satire or inversion of reality or extension of the straight jacket of 'accepted behaviour' wld be completely mis-understood. Wld fall completely flat. The human mind is losing much as each decade proceeds. Strange but true...
Possibly the first show they did where most of if not all the episode was one long story, no doubt written by Palin and Jones who would do this more in series 4 once cleese left and go on to write ripping yarns together which was more this style of comedy, this could've been an episode of it if it wasn't under the python banner.
@@blakeyonthebuses they dont do this on sketch shows now, sketches are one or two gags then done, these guys turned one sketch into an entire story their imagination was so vast.
We are tomorrow leaving Switzerland on a four month cycling tour of Eastern Europe, and now I am quite fearful of gritty fruit cake and bicycle pumps. Thanks mate. Stay out of N.Z.
¿Dónde está mi pastel de erizo? (Where is my hedgehog pie?) This video is icing on the cake for me! I'm on intermediate Spanish at the moment and this was bloody maravilloso 🦔
The down side of this episode was seeing how less the show was with very little Cleese influence. The up side is it showed them beginning to think of full length single stories (movies).
I ran into a small group of these types of Brits near Loo at bnb . It was horrible . They seem to have absolutely no interest in bathing and ,as a result , put wife and I off our full british.
+John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. TIME HAS RUN OUT !! BERISHEET 2023-2030 !! Tribulation !+
For God so loved the world that he caused every living thing on it to perish in a global flood (apart from one family and a few animals). God also liked slavery, human sacrifices, forcing a rape victim to marry their rapist, stoning to death homosexuals - your God is a monster.
It's hard to explain why I found this so funny, @professorsogol5824. It's Michael Palin's expression of naieve, enthusiastic optimism when he is on the cycle. He was good at that face. It's why I loved the accountant sketch.
@@golden.lights.twinkle2329 Crashing on a bike is always embarrassing and often painful, but never funny. As perhaps you know there are two kinds of cyclists: those who have crashed and those who haven't crashed yet. I assume you are in the latter group, and I hope you remain in that group for many more years.
