S #1: Where'd you get the coconuts? A : We found them. S #1: Found them? In Mercia? The coconut's tropical! A : What do you mean? S #1: Well, this is a temperate zone. A : The swallow may fly south with the sun or the house martin or the plover may seek warmer climes in winter, yet these are not strangers to our land? S #1: Are you suggesting coconuts migrate? A : Not at all. They could be carried. S #1: What? A swallow carrying a coconut? A: It could grip it by the husk! S #1: It's not a question of where he grips it! It's a simple question of weight ratios! A five ounce bird could not carry a one pound coconut. A: Well, it doesn't matter. Will you go and tell your master that Arthur from the Court of Camelot is here. S #1: Listen. In order to maintain air-speed velocity, a swallow needs to beat its wings forty-three times every second, right? A: Please! S #1: Am I right? A: I'm not interested! S #2: It could be carried by an African swallow! S #1: Oh, yeah, an African swallow maybe, but not a European swallow. That's my point. S #2: Oh, yeah, I agree with that. A: Will you ask your master if he wants to join my court at Camelot?! S #1: But then of course a-- African swallows are non-migratory. S #2: Oh, yeah... S #1: So they couldn't bring a coconut back anyway..

You forgot the end of that scene. "Suppose two swallows carried it together?"

that whole part in holy grail"come and see the violence inheirit in the system""help, im being repressed"
"Listen, strange women lying in ponds and distributing swords is no basis for a system of government. Supreme executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from some farsicle aquatic ceremony. You can't expect to yield supreme executive power just because some moistened bink threw a sword at you. I mean, if I went around saying I was an emperor just because some watery tart lobbed a scimitar at me, they'd put me away!"and from LOBLook, I'd had a lovely supper, and all I said to my wife was: "That piece ofhalibut was good enough for Jehova!".

"So, can we have your kidneys now then?""Oh, all right..."
That is a great sketch. Was that from Meaning of Life or Flying Circus? I can't remember.Dead Parrot is my favorite sketch. " It's not pinin,' it's passed on! This parrot is no more! It has ceased to be! It's expired and gone to meet its maker! This is a late parrot! It's a stiff! Bereft of life, it rests in peace! If you hadn't nailed him to the perch he would be pushing up the daisies! Its metabolical processes are of interest only to historians! It's hopped the twig! It's shuffled off this mortal coil! It's run down the curtain and joined the choir invisible! This.... is an EX-PARROT!
