Nice Monty Python sketch. Although I prefer the ones in which Marx, Mao and Che Guevara answer questions about songs and soccer.
I don't recall anything about songs...just soccer.

Oh, I'm sorry that was a trick question. They never won the cup.


Eric Idle: Teddy Johnson and Pearl Carr won the Eurovision Song Contest in 1959. What was the name of the song?

Mao Tse Tung: (after some silence) Sing Little Birdie?

Eric Idle: Yes it is!
That's right...
Well, you pluralized 'songs' and I didn't remember there being multiple questions about music.

Tough call there.

Eric Idle was involved in some of the best sketches.
Terry Jones had a unique presence that I always found amusing.
John Cleese had probably the most successful on-screen work post-Python.
And, of course, I don't think we can discount the fact that Carol Cleveland, often called the last Python, was in fact, female, which wins her a few points right there.

I think I have to go with Cleese.
1. In the Steve Martin/Goldie Hawn version of "The Out-Of-Towners", Cleese does a magnificent dance, complete with Ministry-of-Silly-Walks-esque kicks to the song Bad Girls.
2. A Fish called Wanda.
3. Live Vault web-commercial The Institute for Backup Trauma.

Heh, I loved Cleese in The Out of Towners. I was just thinking of that scene the other day, but I couldn't remember the name of the movie. Thanks!

There is no lingerie in space…

Not that that is going to stop you from dreaming… Only in this case, Gaffer is actually a guy.

I loved Fawlty Towers, so Cleese would be my sentimental favourite.

Back on topic, I'd like to see a grudge match between Putin and Harper

I would like to see Elvis and John Lennon. Lennon would win by the power of peace.
