Does anyone have this book? I need a scan of the script page(s) with the handwritten notes in the margins, for the opening credits sequence. Maybe it's in "Monty Python's Big Red Book" (which, btw, is blue), but somewhere, I recall seeing these script pages showing the producer's notes.The reason I'm looking for this, is I'm trying to identify the title of one of the music cuts used.

Sorry the knights that say ni stole the book and after it was being used for dirty reading at the nunnery (they wanted another spanking) it was being guarded by a rabit (its only a itibti rabit)

Good work Paul! What, after all, is an office without a large and concise collection of Monty Python merchandise? 
BTW... Noo!

PAUL!!!! Wow, thanks a lot! I won't be needing the scans, since those titles were exactly what I was looking for. "Wide Horizons" is the one in particular (I'm listening to "Countrywide" right now, in fact).You're a pal! Thanks again.

Glad to be of service. Knew that book would come in handy--it continues to provide respite after some "tiny-brained wiper of other people's bottoms" has intruded upon my day.Now I just have to figure out what "O" Level Geography is... 
Later,

I caught the Easter Bunny this morning, and now must hasten to the kitchen and see how my Rabbit Stew is doing. Been bubbling all afternoon.

'O' (ordinary) levels were school exams taken by kids at age 16 in the UK. Typically children took 10-12 subjects. They were replaced in the late 1980s by GCSEs (general certificate of secondary education). After taking them, students went on to take 'A' (advanced) levels at age 18 (typically in 3 subjects) which still exist and which are the usual university/college entry qualification.

You mean that movie with Shannon Tweed and Bill "Politically Incorrect" Maher? It's on DVD, believe it or not! There's also a funny review of it at badmovies.org.

Oh, and a much belated "thank you" to Leo for the info about O-Level exams. Now I know what that poor Swedish moose went through.

Funny thing this should come up today!
We were having our "employee meeting" at the Cornerstone Tavern last night. The idea was put on the table that we should show Monty Python and the Holy Grail here at Mercyhurst. All parties agreed that this should be looked into.
So... What are the chances of getting a decent quality 35mm print of MP&HG?

You're in luck Randy. Contact info for Rainbow Releasing is in this thread:

Hey Randy thanks for the link ![[Cool]](cool.gif)

What you REALLY want for your "New Mail" sound is THIS!
For your "Alert Sound" (SysBeep) you will want THIS sound!
With these sounds you are sure to have the people in your office climbing their cubicle walls in mere seconds! ![[evil]](graemlins/evil.gif)

I miss a few of the features that used to be available at pythonline.com ...
Namely the email abuse, and silly organ donation.

Rachel, what is it that you find so confusing about this thread? Memorize all of the dialog and the Swedish subtitles for the credits and all should become clear.
Posted by Rachel Gilardi (Member # 1016) on 11-21-2003, 06:47 PM:
I've, uh, never seen Monty Python... Don keeps me sheltered.

How can one not know Monty Python? Living in the world of today and not knowing MP is like not being able to read.
Paul - I believe the subtitles are in Danish.
