People remember it so well, because it was short sharp and sweet. They only made 12 programmes and it's amazing how many people are shocked by that. |

He was also in actually he wrote "A fish called Wanda" I was supprised to read that they only made 12 episodes. When Fawlth hit Manwel with the frying pan I thought he killed him. My youngest watched the episodes so many times he would sit in the chair and his lips moved reciting the lines. |

See PBA Lumberjack song. Trouble is some are very repetitive. Did terrific sales training films Like "Who sold you this then?" |

A Fish called.... was a good film, with a great cast, but I thought Kevin Kline stole the plaudits. |

Flash, ref #6 - I was singing those lyrics just the other day while out in the woods with my chainsaw. Along with: "You're Stihl the one." Named my saw Dahmer after cutting up a bear who met an early demise (before hunting season opened). That fixed him for raiding the TDL. T-Dog |

I assume PBA does the chorus? Or is he the one with the yellow curls looking adoringly? |

John Cleese, from the Monty Python sketch "Election Night Special":
Cleese: No I'm sorry, there isn't time, we have to pick up a few results you may have missed. A little pink pussy-cat has taken Barrow-in-Furness -- that's a gain from the Liberals there. Rastus Odinga Odinga has taken Wolverhampton Southwest, that's Enoch Powell's old constituency -- an important gain there for Darkie Power. Arthur Negus has held Bristols -- that's not a result, that's just a piece of gossip. Sir Alec Douglas Home has taken Oldham for the Stone Dead party. A small piece of putty about that big, a cheese mechanic from Dunbar and two frogs -- one called Kipper the other not -- have all gone "Ni ni ni ni ni ni!" in Blackpool Central. And so it's beginning to look like a Silly landslide, and with the prospect of five more years' Silly government facing us we... Oh I don't want to do this any more, I'm bored!
Even taken out of context, it's still funny stuff. |

Rastus Odinga Odinga has taken Wolverhampton Southwest, that's Enoch Powell's old constituency Dangerous stuff that even in those days. Of course Odinga Oginga was a communist pal of Obama's Kenyan daddy.
