It's a good sketch, bordering on great, but the 'Cheese Shop' game in the Brand New Monty Python Bok is a true classic. One player is the cheese shop owner, the other player is the customer. Game goes like this: 1) Shop owner and customer exchange pleasantries. 2) Shop owner asks how he can help. 3) Customer asks for a variety of cheese. 4) Shop owner offers an excuse for the lack of said cheese in stock (a simple "No" is okay, or numerous variations upon such. however, points are awarded for creative excuses - "Not since the Great Moroccan Curd Shortage of 1978, I'm afraid Sir" and so forth). 5) Customer asks for a *different* variety of cheesy comestible. 6) Shop owner offers a *different* excuse for not having any of said fromage in stock. 7) Game continues in this fashion until one player either a) cannot think of a new cheese/excuse, or b) repeats a cheese/excuse. Great at parties. Can empty entire front rooms.

A friend and I used to play a game a bit like that. A kind of 'celebrity tennis'. I think it started with 'Brians'. One of us would name someone relatively famous (or at least known to both of us, such as ex-teachers) who was called Brian, and the other had to respond. The winner was the player that got the last Brian. 'Brians' and 'Bobs' could be quite long matches, whereas 'Quentins' was usually a 2-2 draw (after "Crisp", "Blake", "Letts" and "Tarantino"). I knew of someone with the splendid name of Quentin Goggs, but was not allowed that one! As you can imagine, the long winter evenings used to simply fly by!

Python sketches have no punchlines per se (a fact they not only admit but exploit to hilarious effect in the scene after "Argument Clinic" for example); rather, they create scenarios that are inherently absurd (a cheeseless cheese shop) and reveal that fact throughout the sketch. The dancers are another absurdity that builds as the sketch goes on. A classic example of Cleese's "thesaurus" sketches, which are always a hoot.

The character of Basil Fawlty was actually based on a real life hotel owner. Back in the 70's the Pythons stayed in a hotel somewhere in England where they were filming. Apparently the owner was as rude and obnoxious as you can get and so Cleese wrote a series around him. There were only 12 episodes but as Rhissanna rightly says, they were excrutiatingly funny to the point of making you squirm watching them. If you have never watched Fawlty Towers then get yourself the set.

Benny Hill, Monty Python and Marty Feldman -- true comedic geniuses! In the very early 1970's we didn't have many TV channels and most went off the air before midnight. Luckily, my family lived in Michigan and we received Ontario, Canada TV broadcasts late at night. That's when Hill's and Python's shows were broadcast. Good times...!

The Pythons borrowed a lot from Benny Hill.

I don't recall as much scantily clad women in varying stages of lingerie undress running around in Python skits so much as Pythons in drag, but both shows featured some hilarious songs and skits.

Like the cheese counter at Tesco.

You wouldn't know it was a cheese counter until a man stood behind it and took your order. It's just a counter otherwise.
@tileking80785 років тому

Has to be one the best sketches ever. All praise to be both performers and writers for producing such wonderful imaginative comedy.

I’m a starting to see a pattern with the most famous MP:FC sketches. John Cleese is on one side or the other, on an exchange of people unable or unwilling to properly provide what’s been advertised. Cheese, *living* parrots, silly walks, arguments, etc
@jorgefiguerola123910 місяців тому
Must say after decades a Python fan, this cheese addiction sketch with its nod to many addiction documentaries was so inspired.
@dovegrey112 років тому
Great sketch----also on their Matching Tie And Handkerchief LP....this is where I learned so many cheese names!

In that version, he says "I don't care how fucking runny it is." Also, at the end: "Not a scrap. I was deliberately wasting your time."
@memorymix88845 років тому
the music makes it so surreal lmao

Well, it's so clean. It's certainly uncontaminated by cheese! This whole skit is just comedy writing gold! 😂😂😊

There are no Cheese Shops in Lancaster, where I live! ... So, I buy my cheese at Aldi. Not only do they have plenty of cheese "contaminating" the supermarket, but there is NO annoying music and dancing! 🤣
@ownpetard8379Місяць тому
Well, Aldi is not licensed for public dancing. Their loss, really.

You can't beat Monty Python. John Cleese in Faulty Towers still kept up this kind of humour. Well done.

I loved the live on-stage version even more: "It's a bit runny sir." "I don't care how fcking runny it is...."

What I most like of Monty Phyton sketches is they get even funnier as the story goes on, long live the Monty Phytons! cheers from a mexican fan!

I did the same thing with a couple of my favourite Fawlty Towers episodes as a teenager, but I’m afraid they’re long gone

Oooohh. John Cleese. One of your best. “The senseless waste…”
@Jalfmar315 років тому
Outside of " . . . we already got one . . ." my favorite line in all of Pythondom is in this sketch. "Well, it's certainly uncontaminated by cheese." I'm convinced the Star Trek: Voyager episode where the computer's bio gel packs get "sick" from the fumes off Neelix's cheese was inspired by this sketch.

This is the first monty python sketch I have ever liked, and I just happened upon it by accident! No one ever told me about this one before. This is truly amazing. Very funny indeed. Every frame exudes humor.

Everything about this sketch is glorious. The music, the ending, the hotness that is Mr. John Cleese...perfect.
