Monty Python experts, buffs, help me out please:

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

I'm trying to identify a sketch. It's a "turnabout" of the hackneyed theme of an intelligent, educated young man from a working class background having conflict with his parents because of his supposed pretensions and airs, and thinking he's better than his roots.

In the sketch, the parents are the pretentious educated ones, and the young man is a coal miner or quarryman or some other type of laborer, but the conflict and dynamic is the same, with the parents thinking that he feels he's too good for them.

Can anyone help identify the players, name of sketch, or season, so if I buy DVD's I can be sure to include this?

1. Graham Chapman

Graham Chapman was the young man. His parents were Michael Palin and Terry Jones. Don't know what season it was.

8. Close

Chapman was the father, Terry Jones the mum and Eric Idle was the coal-mining son.

"sex and violence" is the name of the sketch.

6. This may have little bearing, since MP is usually sold...

... in complete episodes, but the episode name is "sex and violence," while the sketch requested goes by the short name of "working-class playwright."

Cheers.
