+Nik why don't you

I don't understand that line either. Its a double negative. Double negatives confuse me.

It's less confusing in Tibetan LOL

There’s no such thing in Polish. A double negative I mean. Don’t omit to ask anyone in Warsaw.

@@simontay4851 It doesn't contain a double negative. At least not in the grammatical sense. The grammar in that sentence is ok.

One of the best lines in the whole series.

Well.. private medicine, anyway.

@SimonLovesHemis pretending government health care is quality is pretty hilarious, are you a comedian as well?

@@docsavage8640 Pretending that private health care is quality is even more hilarious. Are you sure you're not the comedian here?

@@LordZontar”healthcare” in the modern sense is generally ineffective either private or public. both are treatment based rather than preventative. the fact is we live in a diseased society (CDC: 2/3 of Americans have diabetes or prediabetes, etc.) and instead of making lifestyle changes, the doctors tell you to take the drugs or get the operation, so they and their industry continue to be funded by suffering and death. forget the petty private vs public healthcare debate, get at the root of it!! big pharma and big agricultural! besides the military industrial complex these are the two biggest lobbies of our federal government.

Jill Hammer Best line in the whole skit.

+Jill Hammer Best line.

+Jill Hammer Sums up the whole cancer treatment regime. Think I will paraphrase in future and say there are no harmful effects of cancer that expensive medication can't prolong.

I will take the treatment, thank you. Actual cancer survivor....

nick otwell Way to take a joke way to seriously...

yes right ^^

According to his autobiography, he had quite a bit of sex with women as well as men.

But they all had a nice slit@@premanadi

Bolton in reverse, but not a pallandrome!

"Dr. Larch" also comes from the "how to recognize different types of trees" thing

​​@@premanadiYes, it's a pun!

@@premanadi It's palindrome. As such, it was also a play on Michael Palin's name.

@@neilinely Direct quote from the dead parrot sketch: "It's not a palindrome! The palindrome of Bolton would be Notlob. It don't work!" Palindromes have to spell the same backwards and forwards. Good point about Palin, though.

did you watch all the flying circus episodes?

@@meyr1992 All of the episodes shown on PBS back in the 1970's.

This was from the last episode of series 1; The same one as "Albatross", which you can hear someone repeat during this skit & also the same episode as police using magic wands & Ouija boards.

@@TheRip72 Thanks for telling me about it. I would love to watch that if I could find it.

If you're playing soccer try and favor the other leg😂

And it's only because of reruns that I can't stay away from mental hospitals.

@@jorgefiguerola1239 Never mind!

If you think the 20th was bad, wait till you see the 19th!

Is the 21st any better?

@freddylubin Well, people could talk with each other without a mobile phone....that's not bad, is it?

TruthSurge its a palindrome

A Palin playing a palindrome. Sneaky recursive humor.

You don't have access to a dictionary online? A palindrome is a word that spells the same whether you write it normally or backward - like madam. How is "notlob" a palindrome? It's not. It's just the place from the other skit written backwards. that is all.

@@TruthSurge They say all that in the Dead Parrot Sketch. "It's not a palindrome. It don't work."

@@premanadi ok

Well it'll dry

Угарный ЮМОР. Подписывайся I'm sure that's a reference to something...

Around where?

That's the joke ~

Yep, it bothered me!!! Haha!

randman21 I think that was deliberate, they are just like that

Cheesy set

Not at all. You need to take a look at the doors at my workplace! 😧

Yep it bothered me 😂

I think it's from the Parrot sketch yeah lol

@@planetary109 A palindrome? It don't work.

@@funkyalfonso Almost an anagram of lobotomy.

It's Bolton backwards you filthy casuals

​@@funkyalfonso It does if you live in Bolton.

He didn't put a paper bag over his head every time you said 'mattress', did he?

@@inspectortanzi No, and I tried. He did smile at my silliness, though, once even politely guffawing at my 20 year-old American's attempt at John Cleese's accent in his famous "Walpoling activities" speech from the Cheese Shop.

@@haeuptlingaberja4927 Tungsten carbide drills? What the bloody ell's tungsten carbide drills?

That's the one i don't get.. but then again, english is not my first anymore. Anyone?

@@dannydetonator Probably a reference to the Fourth Doctor Who, who routinely offered everybody around him a jelly baby.

They used the same song for "Gumby Brain Specialist."

'Raymond Massey' leapt into my head on hearing

+Meeny McSweeny Thank you for telling the name of the song, I felt it was really good and wondered what it was named and you gave me the answer. Thank you very much indeed! :D

Tommy Haynes Funny. That"s the same thing I told a British tourist slumming in the St. Louis, MO ghetto I was squatting in.

As it should be. The housing market is held at ransom for people that have no other alternative than ponying up.

I remember that as a kid they used to freak me the fuck out

They still freak me out.

I know, right? It still freaks the fuck out of me...will never get used to them ever, I guess.

I think that's kind of the point. They keep you a little off balance and make it so you're in the right state of mind for the rest of the show.

I saw them as a child and fucking loved them! They are why I became a professional animator :) Watch Terry Gilliam's Christmas cards animation, its what he did that got him the Python gig

Ah yes. A famous Monty Python line.

Tastes like jelly babies

Why "reverential"?

I believe this song is from Peter, Paul and Mary. Edit: or rather, I believe it was written by them.

@raven_of_zoso455 Now I why Britney Spears Uses the names Peter Paul And Mary in her Song 123!

@@jehanashraf8219 now I know Britney Spears has a song called 123.

@@raven_of_zoso455 yeh you mean cos their are 3 members Peter Paul and Mary?

But the receptionist’s hairdo/wig… That’s pure late 60s, and I fell into a catatonic time warp and needed expert attention from a team of recovering Clairol junkies.
