Monty Python Favourites

I am in the process of writing a LARP for Chimera.

I would like to do some market research for this LARP. As such, please post here/PM me with the following:

  1. Your Favourite Monty Python Sketch
  2. Your Favourite Monty Python Character
  3. A Monty Python Character/Sketch/Film That Was Quite Good But Not Particularly Worth Writing Home About Yet Mentioning It On a Website Is Passable
  4. Other Ramblings About Monty Python: Good or Bad or Downright Horrible

Thanks in advance for taking the time to do so, here is to hoping the LARP works!

  1. Your Favourite Monty Python Sketch - Completely forgot about the Cheese shop Skit - Outstanding!
    (Holy Grail - Either the Black Knight or the Holy Hand Grenade parts. - original answer)

  2. Your Favourite Monty Python Character - Can I say John Cleese? I know hes not a “character” persay… but he’s just so awesome!
    OK - I got one - The Cheese Shop guy!!

    English sense of humour really makes MP, the posh accents can really put the right emphasis on the skits to make them funnier.

Favourite Sketch: Bookshop (the expurgated version)
Favourite Character: Extremely tough call! Probably the shopkeeper in the Parrot Sketch. Has an answer for everything, that man.
Sketch that was a bit meh, really: Most of the Mrs Pepperpots sketches. Not particularly memorable
Other Ramblings: I think it’s the deadpan seriousness, but at the same time, the ludicrousness (is that a word??) of the sketches that do it for me. Delivered badly, those sketches fall flat on their faces. Delivered the way the Pythons did it, brilliance.

Viperion

Awesomeness: The Dead Parrot Sketch, The Argument Clinic, and The Ministry of Silly Walks.

None off the top of my head.

Somewhat Good: the sketch in which a newly married couple attempt to purchase a bed …

And, while it is not strictly Monty Python, there’s a youtube video of a (live) sketch in which Rowan Atkinson interviews John Cleese about beekeeping …
