I don't understand the hostility either. I thought it would be quite a
simple question about Monty Python. I didn't expect a kind of Spanish
inquisition!
I'm watching the series from start to finish, and I'm liking series 2 much
better than series one. And the studio audience seems to be much more "in"
on the whole show.
I should be up to series 3 in the next couple of days, and i can't wait to
see if there's a noticeable "Jumping the Shark" point before series 4
starts.
I love the job interview sketch... 5! 4! 3! 2! 1! zero...
goodniiiiightdingdingding. I've had a few job interviews just like that!
Also i just found the 1948 Four Yorkshiremen "Luxury!" sketch in it's most
original form.
