Good evening.
In the late 1960s,
which was so original,
so zany,
so fabulously different,
that many people felt that
the world of entertainment
had been changed forever.
Intelligent, some would
say even intellectual,
yet massively popular.
Subtle, but also simple.
Dangerous, but warm.
Visual, but still
enormously literate.
Big-hearted, generous,
anarchic,
and above all, funny.
Brilliantly funny.
What about this
Monty Python crowd?
Well, some people
like 'em, I guess.
The pythons--
Undoubtedly one
of the greatest
writer/performer teams
of the 20th century.
Young, talented,
and virile,
and incredibly,
they were British.
Six fantastically gifted,
unforgettable guys--
John, Paul, George, Ringo...
Bob, and...
One other unforgettable guy.
They were tall,
they were beautiful,
they were crazy.
I'm not going to say that bit.
I can't.
Because it's a lie, that's why.
I'll tell you why
I can't say it.
Because its not in my--
I love them.
Over the next hour,
I'm going to be
showing you a selection
of the very best
of Monty Python's work.
Much of it has been
seen before.
In fact, many, many,
many, many times before.
But never in this form.
But first, we have
Some brand-new
Monty Python material
never before seen in this country.
If you've never seen
Monty Python before,
you won't have never seen
anything like this.
Enjoy.
[William Tell overture plays]
Hooray, you've done it!
Well done!

Ha ha ha ha!
Ha ha oh ho!
Oh, dear, oh, dear.
Monty Python--
nutty, zany, crazy.

Welcome to Munich for
the 27th Silly Olympiad,
an event held traditionally
every 3.7 years,
which this year
has brought competitors
From over four million
different countries.
Here we are at the start
of the first event--
The semi-final
of the 100 yards
for people with no sense
of direction.
I'll present
the competitors--
Lane 1, Kolomowski.
Lane 2, Zatapathique.
Lane 3, Grobovich.
Next to him, Drabbel.
Next to him, Clanades of Spain,
and in the outside lane,
Bormann of Brazil.
[gunshot]
Well, that was fun,
wasn't it?
And now, over to the
other end of the stadium.
We're waiting for the start
of the 1,500 meters
for the deaf.
They're under starter's orders.
[gunshot]
We'll be coming back
the moment there's any action.
Over to the swimming.
You join us at the absurd pool
just in time for the 200 meters
freestyle for non-swimmers.
Watch for the top
Australian champion Ron Barnett
in the second lane.
[blows whistle]
We'll be bringing you back here
the moment they start
fishing the corpses out.
Now over to Hans Kleig for
the marathon for incontinents...
Well, we've got
an enormous entry--
44 competitors from
29 different countries,
all of them with the most
superbly weak bladders.
Not a tight sphincter in sight.
Ready to embark, nevertheless,
on the world's longest race,
and they're just aching to go.
Get set.
[gunshot]
And they're off!
They're off!
Well done.
Back at the 1,500 meters,
and the starter's putting up
a magnificent show.
Get set!
We've had scattered
random fire, fusillade, firing.
We can't get
the buggers moving.
It's enough to make you
chew your own foot off.
We're back with the marathon
for incontinents.
Theres Polinsky in the lead.
There's the runner from France!
Aburro has overtaken him!
There goes Byrd!
There goes Gurney of Austria!
