Any Monty Python fans on here?

[Speicher]

You may know that I am very keen on trains and timetables and railway items etc. Anyway, bear with me. Yesterday evening there was a programme on about Railways and their portrayal in films etc.

One clip was from Monty Python and was a skit on Sherlock Holmes trying to solve a murder. The suspect was saying "It was not me, and I can prove it because here is my ticket showing I travelled on the 11.32 from Euston and I was consuming coffee in the Buffet".

Some one else replies, that the 11.32 only has a standing buffet, to which someone else says

Yes, but that train does not run on Saturdays.

It does if there is a football match at Blankety

etc etc, does not sound funny the way I write it, but does anyone know the name of the sketch that it is from?

I have tried googling trains, buffet etc on Youtube, without success.

Yes, I know, I need to get out more.

Gosh, I am astounded, that was so jolly quick.

Thank you so much, you must have known the one I meant, without searching for it. A large drink of your choice, awaits you in Beer? or Tea?

Have to say, not the funniest thing they've ever done.

Is there something you are not telling us, Noodley.
Have you got details of the British equivalent?

Watch out for it then!

More into the Railway Children clips tho, good film that.

 

[Speicher]

Yes, but they cut before the bit where she says, "Daddy, my Daddy".

Have to say, not the funniest thing they've ever done.

You wouldn't enjoy of the Railway holidays I have done then, we have had conversations just like that, only with towns in Europe.

If the entire Monty Python series was shown again I think we would find it pretty dire viewing. The best of it was hilarious, but most was very boring.
