I heard on the radio years ago a Monty Python sketch (I think), that involved Palin and Cleese (maybe).
They were having a conversation of nonsense.
One of the lines was “…machine wrapped with butter?”. To which the other replies “Machine wrapped with butter.”
You know… I have all their movies on either VHS or DVD. I have the entire TV series in a DVD boxset. I have the Monty Python Instant CD collection, which is all their albums in a CD boxset. I even have some of their live stuff and the rarely seen German episode.
I have no idea what sketch you’re talking about, but I have a good excuse to go on a Python spree for the next 4 days though.
Now oddly enough this band is named after an episode of the Goon Show, but that’s the closest I can see to an MP connection. I know Goon Shows pretty well and I’m not aware any of them contained this line, although it wouldn’t be out of place.
