Yep. And the last sentence of the clip "It's a fair cop" is also brilliant.

Until I had read this comment section, I was unaware of any significance to that ending, and until now, I did indeed consider that a cheap way to end the skit.
The perfect Python sketch. Cleese and Palin bouncing off each other, the satire on language, the commentary on the way arguments are structured, the layered word play, the one liners, the timing, the delivery, the premise, Chapman, Idle and Jones' bit parts. If they'd made just this one sketch, they'd be legends.

Watching this sketch again, I came to an incredible realization. Someone heaping abuse on you for no reason? Arguments aplenty? Trying to complain, only to have other people complain with or to you? This is just Twitter!
I was thinking Facebook. People keep posting political memes on the Monte Python fan page I joined. Seriously, those people ARE the sketch! The lack of self-awareness is breathtaking and hilarious sometimes.
Just left an "argument" room, and "I came here to complain!" "Oh, that's next door! It's being-hit-on-the-head lessons in here!" "What a stupid concept!"
The Greatest Skit of All Time!!! Being hit on the head lessons… “I came in here for a good argument” “No you didn’t, you came in here for an argument.”
Oh, my goodness, this is funny! The way these guys can take such a simple concept and create comedy magic is priceless! I’ve never seen this one before, but I’ll be back for a few more bonks on the head!
This is my favorite Monty Python sketch. I have many favorites but this one is Number One! Monty Python enabled me to appreciate the utter insanity of the world.
The poms have a special knack for making the ridiculous, funny, very funny, hysterically funny, rolling on the floor funny, all the while being serious, how did they keep a straight face? would love to see some of the bloopers for a show like this
Just for the sake of _argument..._ the first encounter went from the 1:29 mark, when Palin says "Is this the right room for an argument?" to the 2:42 mark, when Cleese hit the bell. So once and for all, Palin was right. It wasn't five minutes, it was only one minute thirteen. 👍😆
John and Michael have spent their entire career arguing. This one, the Fish License, the Parrot sketch, the Cheese shop, the Lion Tamer, the Fish Slapping dance....what else am i forgetting?
I have watched this for at least twenty times, and it never failed in getting me at full laughter. God, Monty Python will last for the next centuries ahead. It's superb.
So many repeatable lines in one sketch. It is brilliant in every single line, execution, and concept, from beginning to end. It is THE funniest MP sketch for me, but of course there are dozens (at least) which could attract that accolade for others.
I loved this sketch back in the mid-70s when I was in HS, and I loved it just now!!! Thanks Monty's Boys for all the years of humour, RIP to those time has taken, and a BIG THX to the folks who posted this.
Seriously, though, it is useful to know that all of them wrote and acted in TV comedy before Python, just not all as one group. The Goon Show in particular was a big influence on them.
Absolutely priceless. Me and my best mate did zero work in Science classes. Instead we had memorised every sketch we could lay our hands on. LP's at the time. We tried to do the exact voices. We were pretty good. We carried it on after class. And then when we were offered we joined drama club and from there we learnt about beyond the fringe, the Goon show and much else. Thank you dear Monty Python. All those sketches were so very good. Eternally grateful.
In reading the comments to these Python clips on CZcams, I get the feeling that there are people who don't understand that part of what they were about was playing with and subverting traditional sketch structure. That's why watching clips in isolation actually hinders you in appreciating them. You don't see how the links and the running gags tie everything together.
my favourite was I think the travel agency sketch where the woman at the desk asks the man "have you come to book a holiday?" and then in a quite and suggestive manner follows it with "or do you want to go upstairs?". Well of course we never got to find out what happens upstairs!
Yes definitely my favourite Python sketch- so many memorable and brilliant lines. Years ago I translated it into Spanish for my actor friends in San Sebastian, as we couldn't find, at the time, the TV series in Spanish

Probably my favorite Monty Python sketch, although it is hard to decide. Two nits though: (1) Michael Palin never paid for the first five minutes (?) of argument, and (2) the choice given by the secretary was a single 5-minute argument or a course of 8 arguments, whereas John Cleese asks Michael Palin if he's there for the 5-minute argument or the full half hour. The secretary never offered Palin a full half-hour argument. Maybe I should take make a visit to the complaint department?
The idea of some strange goverment ministry somewhere, full of such peculiar departments amuses me almost as much as the actual content of this sketch.
