I had a feeling that was coming. A classic.
Slightly different cast. Tim Brooke-Taylor on the left andn Marty Feldman
is on the right. As someone commented, pity the last line about "You tell that to the young folks today and they won't believe you" isn't in this version.
it's only a model
Is that the ancestral family seat in Over Wallop, Rusty? Must've been a b****r to heat. No wonder you emigrated.
(Still, an ideal place to shout, "I fart in your general direction!" at the rabble outside the moat.)

One of my my favorite Monty Python skits other than the dead parrot was "Upper Class Twit Of The Year ". Hysterical.

Not sure. I suspect Americans may be the only ones who need the phrase “British humor” to identify stuff that’s often over their head
In Britain, the term “British humour” might not be used much because it’s a redundancy. Maybe our ex-British members can clarify that
Humor/humour has one job. You'll know if it hasn't done it.

My favourite British show, that we got in Australia, has to be "The Goodies". I grew up in the 1980's watching it.
So …. is that a photo of you and your friends in the 1980s, or is it from the show??
I love it, showed my granddaughter that part of the movie the other night, she near wet herself laughing...she said they took the vomiting a bit too far for her taste but thought it was hilarious. I may have created a monster....she had never seen any Monty Python, when I told her it was one of my favorites she needed a taste of the best.
