Tonight on Monty Python's Flying Circus...
A profile of a man thought my many to be the greatest name in German baroque music — Johann Gambolputty de von Ausfern- schplenden- schlitter- crasscrenbon- fried- digger- dingle- dangle- dongle- dungle- burstein- von- knacker- thrasher- apple- banger- horowitz- ticolensic- grander- knotty- spelltinkle- grandlich- grumblemeyer- spelterwasser- kurstlich- himbleeisen- bahnwagen- gutenabend- bitte- ein- nürnburger- bratwustle- gerspurten- mitz- weimache- luber- hundsfut- gumberaber- shönedanker- kalbsfleisch- mittler- aucher von Hautkopft of Ulm.

We start with an interview with his only surviving relative — Karl Gambolputty de von Ausfern- schplenden- schlitter- crasscrenbon- fried- digger- dingle- dangle- dongle- dungle- burstein- von- knacker- thrasher- apple- banger- horowitz- ticolensic- grander- knotty- spelltinkle- grandlich- grumblemeyer- spelterwasser- kurstlich- himbleeisen- bahnwagen- gutenabend- bitte- ein- nürnburger- bratwustle- gerspurten- mitz- weimache- luber- hundsfut- gumberaber- shönedanker- kalbsfleisch- mittler- aucher von Hautkopft of Ulm.



Oh... and there's something about "crunchy frog" or something, too. :shrug:

to 48 bucks with shipping. For that price, pick it up and put it on a shelf until xmas. I never picked it up before because I only ever saw it priced at 199.

EDIT: Scratch that idea, looks like it's not listed there any longer. Sorry.

4. You might wanna get it early
And check eBay. Normally the boxed set is like $119.

Here's one for $40, plus $15 shipping. Seller has a 99.8 rating, too.

7. I forgot to mention
in that episode can be seen nekkid female breasts, in the bit "The Dull Life of a City Stockbroker." Not a brief, blurry glimpse, either, but a full-on shot about 10 seconds long.

Funny thing, too — nobody died or went crazy or anything from watching it. :shrug:

10. Full frontal nudity?
Yes, I'd do it, if it was valid. Or if the money was valid. And if it were a very small part.




Bum. Oh, what a giveaway!
