Aaah, the joy that is Monty Python!
Those folks are the number #1 BEST
comedy troupe of all time for a reason.
They had the tendency to modify a sketch
over time if it suited their needs.
Even thought the skit was very well known
for a certain member to play, that could
change depending, on the mood of the folks
involved, the location of the event, or
the audience participation.
In this one, Graham Chapman produces the
retort that breaks the flow at the beginning.
In the version that I play on the show Graham
is the hard nosed survivor that rebukes Terry
Jones for breaking the script.
It’s all good.
This version is taken from the original
BBC television show, it has a great ending,
not at all like the album recording but
a real treat all in all.
Great stuff!
