Monty Python

I've only just notice that post! Didn't know that one, ta KK

From the Fish Licence sketch:

Half a bee, philosophically, must, ipso facto, half not be.

But half the bee has got to be,
vis a vis its entity - do you see?

But can a bee be said to be
or not to be an entire bee
when half the bee is not a bee
due to some ancient injury?

Singing...

La dee dee, 1 2 3,
Eric the half a bee.
A B C D E F G,
Eric the half a bee.

Is this retched demi-bee,
half asleep upon my knee,
some freak from a menagerie?
No! It's Eric the half a bee.

Fiddle dee dum,
Fiddle dee dee,
Eric the half bee.

Ho ho ho,
Tee hee hee,
Eric the half a bee.

I love this hive employee-ee-ee
bisected accidentally
one summer afternoon by me
I love him carnally.

He loves him carnally... [together]
...semi-carnally

The end



'Cyril Connelly?'
No! 'Semi-carnally'
Oh!

Cyril Connelly

[glow=red,2,300]Monty Python to reunite for stage show[/glow]

All of the surviving members of comedy group Monty Python are to reform for a stage show, one of the Pythons, Terry Jones, has confirmed.

"We're getting together and putting on a show - it's real," Jones told the BBC.

"I'm quite excited about it. I hope it makes us a lot of money. I hope to be able to pay off my mortgage!"

The reunion is expected to be announced officially at a press conference being held in London on Thursday.

John Cleese, Eric Idle, Terry Gilliam, Michael Palin and Jones are all due to appear at the event, which was first revealed in the Sun.

Eric Idle also tweeted on Monday: "Only three days to go till the Python press conference. Make sure Python fans are alerted to the big forthcoming news event."

He added on Tuesday: "Python meeting this morning. Can't wait. Press Conference Thursday will apparently be live on Sky News. I'll get you the online URL."

Comic actor and Python fan David Schneider told BBC 5 live that he took news of the reunion with mixed emotions.

"The worry is, what if its rubbish, as you get older and wealthier and part of the establishment, you lose your edge comedically.

"I'm sure they'll do new stuff, I'd be very disappointed if its all old sketches."

The last time the five remaining members of the iconic comedy group appeared together was in 1998 at the Aspen Comedy Festival.

The sixth member of the comedy troupe, Graham Chapman, died in 1989.

The press conference will take place at the theatre where Monty Python's Spamalot is running - The Playhouse Theatre in London's West End.
