I think MP was also the most important Python as he was the glue that kept the group together long enogh to reach immortality (the egos of Terry ang John left free would have blown the group up much earlier - my hunch anyway).
I have a Python rarity - on the Contractual album cassettes, there's an announcement for a tiresome gap at the end of side A. Not very exciting, but a rarity nonetheless. Is there a way I can send it to you to upload? Otherwise I can just upload it.
There is no thing known to man that is as funny as the "Dead Parrot Sketch". It is brilliant writing and a hysterical performance by both Cleese and Palin. Just the mention of the sketch can have me laughing like a fool.

Watching further, was Dick naturally insecure and needed to try to affirm his place as interviewer/American, or was he intimidated by 'posh' English backgrounds/high level comedians?...🤔
Dick was a woefully bad interviewer. I have seen him talk down to many of his guests - the worst examples I can recall off the top of my head are James Baldwin and Grace Slick.
the Englishmen dressing up like women ... there was a time when women were not allowed on stage ... think of the plays of Shakespeare where all the 'female' roles would be played by a man ...
Maybe Michael had nothing to sell. I don't know. I am listening to this video (10 minutes gone), and so far, I've heard Dick asking Michael a few questions and Michael has answered. It's just a very relaxed chat
Cavett seemed totally unprepared for the interview. HIs wing it and let the guest's personality save the day didn't work with a total introvert like Palin. Very awkward.
Side note, What's a couple of lovely charming chaps!
My favorite movie of all time.. Time Bandits
don't forget to watch Michael Palin's travel shows/videos...they are great to watch !!!!
what else can you do with them? you can nt eat them.
You could ignore them

Michael has a cameo on Eric's audiobook of his autobiography that's worth the price of it alone.
What chapter?
Back when talk shows were far from the vapid content of today.
Just visit and talk?
My guess is that Michael and Terry Gilliam are the most approachable of the six Pythons (expired Pythons excused).
Absolutely correct Sir. I was talking to someone only today who has met them both separately. Unassuming was the word
It should be noted that even the expired pythons had beautiful plummage.
A wooden leg…named Gwen Dibley. 😂
or the rejected Gwen Dibley's Flying Circus ...

What’s the better title: Monty Python and the Flying Circus or the other candidate: “Owl-stretching time”? I don’t know, the latter has me laughing 😆
Some of the suggestions that the Python's proposed became titles of individual episodes. I'm glad they were used.
I think the RSPB would have strongly objected! 🙂

@@OlafProt
they were related?
Michael is a very shy and polite man,and difficult to draw out into conversation
Dick was a woefully bad interviewer. I have seen him talk down to many of his guests - the worst examples I can recall off the top of my head are James Baldwin and Grace Slick.
Is Gwen Dibley related to Dwayne Dibley?
Yes, although Gwen denies it.
Cavett drains everything with his belief that he is what people tune in for.
I normally find him quite good, but I agree this is pretty awkward.
structural engineer!!
@@Therium007 what’s the point of even asking what a structural engineer is? Did he really think that question could lead to an interesting discussion?
this was painful!!@@jonathanjordan315
Shakespeare - men dressed as women right?
Fairly normal amongst the upper classes
the Englishmen dressing up like women ... there was a time when women were not allowed on stage ... think of the plays of Shakespeare where all the 'female' roles would be played by a man ...
Or 'Peter Pan's by teen girls...
the great Mary Martin, mother of actor Larry Hagman@@tylsimys67
And now it's time to watch SHAKESPEARE IN LOVE
This is one of Dick's worst interviews. He hardly ever asks a relevant question as to Palin's craft and productions. It's all irrelevant banter.
Maybe Michael had nothing to sell. I don't know. I am listening to this video (10 minutes gone), and so far, I've heard Dick asking Michael a few questions and Michael has answered. It's just a very relaxed chat
@@ElvarMasson Nah, he did have a movie out. It's just vaccuous because Dick knew nothing about Palin or Monty Python.

Cavett was a terrible interviewer, but often had good guests
That was his style, meandering and chatty, like having a conversation with a hippy.
