What is your favourite Monty Python sketch

**tabler** · March 20th, 2009, 11:09 AM

I spent my teens quoting Monty Python sketches, I think my favourite is the 'Yorkshireman'

'I used to DREAM of living in a corridor'

'There were 150 of us livin in't shoe box in't middle o road'

For me it`s definitely got to be the Four Yorkshire men sketch .Here`s a clip of said ,but be warned Eric Idle takes the place of John Cleese in this clip and does his level best to ruin it by reading his part rather than acting it .Still from the looks of it he had the script right in front of him , "Saaaay no More ! "

The Cheese Shop is a good one.
"Wensleydale?"
"Yes sir?"
"I'll have some of that"
"Oh sorry sir I thought you were talking to me, thats my name Arthur Wensleydale!"

OR

"What about Cheddar?"
"Well we don't get much call for it round these parts"
"Don't get much call for it? Its the single most popular cheese in the world!!"
"Not round here sir!"
"So what is popular round these parts?"
"Illchester sir!"
and so on.
