Dead Parrot tops Python fans' poll: Sketch named the show's greatest moment beating The Lumberjack Song into second place
A man walks into a pet shop... and a comedy classic is born.
Monty Python’s Dead Parrot sketch has been voted the troupe’s greatest piece of all time.
A man buys a dead parrot and takes it back to complain - only to discover the pet shop owner refuses to admit there is anything wrong with the bird.
It hardly sounds funny, but performed by John Cleese and Michael Palin it is regarded by Monty Python fans as one of the greatest comedy sketches of all time.
My personal favorite was the encyclopedia salesman,but the dead bird skit was great also.
ReplyDeleteI would go with the Lumberjack song.
