Monty Python non sequitur thread (Part 1)

In which year did Coventry City last win the FA Cup?

Now the Japanese have a man who can bend his leg back over his head and back again with every single step.

“Sing Little Birdie.”

It’s …

“Great Balls of Fire.”

Good. Now I’m arrestin’ this entire show on three counts: one, acts of self-conscious behaviour contrary to the ‘Not in front of the children’ Act, two, always saying ‘It’s so and so of the Yard’ every time the fuzz arrives and, three, and this is the cruncher, offenses against the ‘Getting out of sketches without using a proper punchline’ Act, four, namely, simply ending every bleedin’ sketch by just having a policeman come in and… wait a minute.

Er… I think I’d better come clean with you about this… it’s… um it’s not a virus, I’m afraid. You see, a virus is what we doctors call very very small. So small it could not possibly have made off with a whole leg. What we’re looking for here is I think, and this is no more than an educated guess, I’d like to make that clear, is some multi-cellular life form with stripes, huge razor-sharp teeth, about eleven foot long and of the genus felis horribilis. What we doctors, in fact, call a tiger.
