How to Irritate People - Airplane

Pre-Python. This is a skit from John Cleese's program, How to Irritate People.

[@frocat5163]

One of my favorite comedy sketches of all time.

[@kennyn1992]

The most irritating thing for the passengers may be the way Graham is randomly steering the aircraft.

The Pilots’ response to everyone jumping out. 😆 “You know, I wouldn’t be surprised if there wasn’t some trouble about it.”

[@Matt-ig4yk]

Got my first trip to the states booked with these guys.. whoops

[@reginabillotti]

@@Matt-ig4yk You took a trip TO the US with Spirit? What country did you fly out of? Because they only fly in the US, the Caribbean, and Latin America.

[@RadicalCaveman]

You should have gone with Fly-Eezi... the airline that can't afford to crash.

[@Patrik6920]

its a good one, love the parrot sketch ..

[@Rubyofthedead]

I couldn't be an airline pilot because I would be unable to resist the temptation to do this.

[@moos5221]

Well, you need to get out of Kindergarden first and then finish school before you pick up a job anyways.

Actually, this is not Monty Python (who started in 1969), but from the film "How To Irritate People" (1968), written by Cleese and Chapman, among others (Michael Palin was just a guest here).

[@jurajuro5865]

Old English humor 😂😂

[@garrghhh]

Nay, nay ... there was no 'humor' in Old English (in this way). Perhaps gliw or witt, though? 😄

[@Red_Lanterns_Rage]

Great English humor! lol

[@adventureswithaurora]

@@garrghhh My thoughts also. 🤣

[@burnerog]

They’ve got real uniforms and everything…

[@ekaterini001]

Reminds me of: put your masks on, keep your distance, don’t visit grandma.

[@nonubusiness]

Yes, a 4 year long patently absurd skit. Some people enjoyed the skit so much they're still doing it.

Training

[@DUCKDUCKGOISMUCHBETTER]

This was an airline pilot training film. These were the ace pilots of their day.

[@DUCKDUCKGOISMUCHBETTER]

When it was done right, this was the in-flight "live action" entertainment offering. Which was what they had before the seat in front of you had a little TV screen built into it.

[@bjorn2625]

I bet they just put on the uniform to have a drink in The Little Black Box

[@DUCKDUCKGOISMUCHBETTER]

Aviation in the good old days was a lot less formal and more fun than today. I take it this is from an airline pilot training film or something. 😂

Is this a pilot? for a movie?

[@f1redemon966]

No it is a skit

[@RomanesEuntDomus.]

No, it's a pilot and a copilot

[@Gruxxan]

It’s called How to Irritate People. It’s not technically Monty Python. it’s written by John Cleese and Marty Feldman, and features Cleese, Chapman and Palin(but not Terry Jones or Terry Gilliam)
