Monty Python - Court Charades

[@Paticula1135]

The Spanish Inquisition's journey to the old Bailey and the race against the credits has to be one of my all time favorite Monty Python moments.

[@kalvingoodlaxson]

And the best closing credits, Right next to "Deja Vu" and "Yummy Yummy Yummy I Got Love in My Tummy".

[@DigiAkuma]

"Nobody expects the Sp-Oh Bugger!" 😂

[@robertbrighton9797]

Hey it’s the producer quick!!!!!

[@mazder360]

I love the absurdity of just having a giant ant under his desk

[@notnotandrew]

He's clearly had to pantomime "ant" so many times before that it was worth keeping around :)

[@TheLowBrassDude]

You don't have a giant ant underneath your desk?!

[@WinEntity]

So _this_ is why it takes so long for courtrooms to deal with cases.

[@alexd442]

Win Entity wait until lawyers are abolished

[@noturbeeswax6684]

5 people have been found...GILL-CUP!

[@Dinonumber]

No'tur Beeswax 5 people- Jane, Alex, Roger, Bart, Chris, and- SIX! SIX people!

[@jurajgazmercik4826]

I almost die always when he pull up that enormous ant and I watched it twenty times perhaps. Brutal !

[@chuckiejay]

Is there any doubt that Monty Python`s Flying Circus were geniuses who were well ahead of their time? They did for comedy what the Beatles did for rock`n`roll music , which was to breathe new life into an art form that had become stale . God bless Monty Python!!!!!

[@tonizvjezdusina]

I love it when the mood changes from charades to dead serious when the clerk calls the next defendant. :P

[@loginman2000]

That giant ant nearly made me shit myself.

[@jeepneygang]

Have you been able to go since this post?

[@netsurferx1]

"NOBODY EXPECTS THE SP--!" The End "Oh, bugger!"

[@MkVII]

The music is 'Devil's Gallop' by Charles Williams, originally a piece of mood music from the BBC library that was used for a radio serial called 'Dick Barton - Special Agent' in the 1940s, and which virtually everyone growing up in England at the time would recognise. It is frequently used to parody thrilling chase sequences.

[@Commander_Bunny]

Every Judge should have a giant ant.

[@illogicaluniverses5413]

I lose it every time he slams a giant ant upon the table

[@toussaintgervais8285]

That ending!!! And I love how everyone in the court turned towards the door and waited!

[@KentuckyWallChicken]

Looks like the expected the Spanish Inquisition XD

[@Coaching-is3pz]

+Toussaint Gervais And the irony -- no one expects the Spanish Inquisition...to show up after the sketch is over!

[@r5cpt]

Why do I ALWAYS laugh my f**king a** off, every single time I see this sketch? I know every line by heart, and it still kills me!

[@kathHenderson]

Oh hell its the producer! Quick! They constantly break the fourth wall, it's not even there most of the time, I LOVE THAT!

[@keyburri3095]

I looked it up and holy shit, South Africa really DID do a ton of death sentences during the 20th century, being the only country to have a rising number per year in the 1960s. This show is good for learning such random bullcrap.

[@DarkRubberDucky]

"And made several not-at-all legal remakes on the subject of fun..." That phrase makes me smile.

[@profaneLakeman]

when graham whipped out the giant ant model i laughed harder than i have in a long time :-)

[@EpicStopMotions72]

I literally just replayed the ending about ten times xD

[@mfjdv2020]

me too, I remember this from the original broadcast. One could hardly forget it :-)

[@victonewton6434]

Green Whovian j

[@Elenor7]

One of the best Monty Pythons sketches ever!

[@IrishMan441]

3:47 John Cleese say's "Exhibit Q". Years later he will play the character "Q" in the James Bond franchise. Coincidence?

[@netzahuacoyotl]

Lord Castanza That sounds like something a short, slow witted bald man would say

[@musamor75]

Are you echoing your own thoughts Mr. Schell? Fishy-sounding name. Long hair doesn't make you quicker on the ball.

[@Panzerbush]

How can you find someone NOT Esther Williams?!

[@kerryedavis]

Nice to see this all together, not broken into pieces.

[@duffyjohnson77]

"I haven't had any in weeks!"

[@superleipoman]

Best defense ever.

[@calamariattack]

lol "hurry, its the producer!" I just noticed that the producer always comes at the end of any credits lol you gotta love monty python XD

[@Tareltonlives]

"How do you plead?" "Not guilty. Case not proven. Court adjourned. " *everyone starts walking out*

[@stephenwells6434]

That ending was brilliant.

[@davidrule385]

I love that last bit; "Nobody expects the Sp-- (cut to "The End" screen card) Oh, bugger."

[@jakofozz]

These guys are genius!

[@chegeny]

This had me in creases as a kid, especially when he produces the giant ant.

[@Jayzone702]

As someone who was unjustifiably found not Ester Williams im very glad the pythons are raising awareness about this serious matter

[@murielsartre]

"Don't be silly, how can you find someone NOT Esther Williams?" "FISH!" XD

[@mikeclifford8360]

"Nobody expects the Spanish..............oh, bugger."

[@mast0rwiz0rd]

44 years ago, wow.

[@justforever96]

LOL, what a perfect ending. =)

[@WindofNightmares]

this needs to be put in a phoenix wright parody ASAP

[@PuffyOne1898]

I lost it when he just displayed a giant ant for the last syllable.

[@cbak12sg]

Call this a court? CALL THIS A COURT CALL THIS A COURT

[@PeterMayer]

I believe this was the second episode I ever saw In nineteen seventy four. I was fifteen and watching pbs here in Cincinnati, I think I even recorded it on audio cassette. I was a sophomore in high school. I was instantly hooked.

[@darkprose]

"...to be taken from this place, and brought 'round his place." LOL

[@drachmalius6126]

I think about this sketch constantly, so good

[@Tareltonlives]

"The accused then commented on Miss Thang's bodily structure, made several not-at-all legal remarks on the subject of fun and then placed his robes over his head and began to emit low moans. "

[@paulthompson8996]

Miss Fang surely?

[@aigeh1326]

Ace Attorney in a Nutshell...

[@KentuckyWallChicken]

I'm crying over guilcup XD

[@cesariojpn]

"Nobody expects the Spa... oh, bugger." Classic.

[@Cyrathil]

Only Monty Python could make the end credits hilarious...

[@danielwoodhouse5531]

As in spam

[@murielsartre]

Now I associate the Devil's Galop with Python... and Sir Digby Chicken-Caesar.

[@shadowpeach89]

I lol'ed at the gaint ant.

[@xaGe__]

..BEST SKIT EVERRR! ..Well, so many Monty Python skits are BEST EVER! ;-)

[@Fredrockroll]

AAANT!!!!!

[@kalvingoodlaxson]

NOBODY EXPECTS THE...*The End* Oh bugger!

[@tsavorix2993]

4:23 OBJECTION!

[@mauricekim7800]

Tomfish 877 "Objection sustained!"

[@jromanr01]

+Maurice Kim You shut up! Objection overruled

[@mauricekim7800]

JD R *Taps fingers*

[@jromanr01]

***** What?

[@mauricekim7800]

JD R The women who objected taps her fingers after her objection is overruled. :P

[@canbac21]

The best part was when the judge pulled out a giant ant from the stand! LMAO!!!

[@koprej]

How can you find someone "Not Ester Williams"?

[@MsHarpsychord]

the awkward moment when you leave a comment on a video and come back a few months later and its in the top comments.

[@coachgoltzbizpro23]

3:13-3:23 My Favorite 10 Second Sequence of Flying Circus

[@cumulo25]

Call this a court? Call this a court! Call this a court!

[@erisdragon]

I love the spanish inquisition!!!

[@MezkaG]

"RYAN PHELPS" "No, No, No, He was a diver"

[@screwthenet]

Call this a Court- CALL This a COURT!!

[@divixmage]

He was declared "Knot Gillcup". xD

[@elizabethblack7945]

I was not expecting that ending

[@santiagogarcia9632]

The funny thing is that they surely repeat the game every single day and still try to guess.

[@jasobres]

That ending is very ironic, because this time, everyone _did_ expect the Spanish Inquisi- oh, bugger.

[@joshleach4651]

24 didn't expect the Spanish Enqusition

[@spencerraney4979]

Who plays Rita Fang

[@Mitche23]

I think that may be Carol Cleveland, i'm not sure.

[@29caddy]

Not Carol. She's the gal in the wig sitting next to the presiding judge (Chapman).

[@29caddy]

Sorry, sitting next to the barrister, (Cleese).

[@johnbongjoey5200]

Not Esther Williams

[@Ana_crusis]

NO she doesn't look like Carol at all.

[@Manonthe3up]

"Nobody expects the Spa...oh, bugger!" Ingrained into my head for life.

[@ahoneanatwo]

9 people did not expect the Spanish Inquis.....oh buggar!

[@Denamic]

I certainly didn't expect the Spanish inquisition.

[@lukehauser1182]

Our next Supreme Court nominee! 5:12

[@NinaNinaNB]

hahaha.. they are so brilliant.. they always make me laugh so much! XD Thanks for posting this vid xx

[@gingganggoolie]

Particularly poignant, since I have a Law exam in 5 days I should be revising for, this counts....I think.....

[@MrChris98]

Iona Good luck on that exam you wrote 4 years ago.

[@nickh3403]

you should present this in your final exam

[@cetra79]

Just brilliant!!!!!

[@matthewlaurence3121]

All judges and barristers if on trial for what ever reason must dress in full legal attire and be addressed with the full honours. I am wondering if such a case of a judge or barrister on trial was at all the inspiration here?

[@noir-214]

5:57 What music is that?

[@TheMrcrazy711]

monty python was the king at returning jokes

[@musamor75]

To he who uttered: "I haven't had any in weeks" I would be inclined to reply : I can never have too much- Monty Python I mean.

[@TsugaruPilot]

"Nobody expects the Spa... Oh, bugger!" I couldn't stop laughing!

[@MagicAccent]

Best ending ever.

[@why1so1serious1]

perfect !!!!! love monty python xd

[@vandathevampire]

"nobody expects tha spa... oh bugger..." :D i love them!!

[@GameArchiver]

Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition to be late.

[@661cyclist]

@QuikVidGuy "Two - er - THREE - for the Old Bailey please" ... need to have seen the rest of the Inquisition sketches to understand the in-joke!

[@Mandible.Rockuronium]

deaf-end-ANT!!!!! lol I love Monty Python!! =3

[@Robi2009]

I think that's my favorite Monty Python's --- Oh bugger

[@Shadowtail292]

Not guilty case not proven

[@MatheusTrompete]

I didn't expect the Spanish Inquisition.

[@troglodyto]

this is random, but this appears to be filmed in technicolor and not the usual eastman stock. am i correct?

[@why1so1serious1]

you have befound not gull cop omg i love this skit xd

[@Meeshers816]

If only there was a "Love" button...

[@colinpoh]

BRILLIANT

[@nickh3403]

[@QuikVidGuy]

Quick, easily missable gag when they first get on the trolley.

[@thevideogamenerd100]

"Brian Phelps" brilliant!!!

[@VickyTheVickname]

NOBODY EXPECTS THE SPAN- Oh, bugger

[@EnlightenedByKnowledge]

What's the name of the music playing @5:55?

[@rfletch62]

+Enlightened "The Devil's Gallop".
