#1 Yes, well. I demand the singing of "The Lumberjack Song" and "Spam" in music class then. Right.

#3 Silly Walks Script.

My favorite line:

Minister: (rising) Mr Pudey, (he walks about behind the desk in a very silly fashion) the very real problem is one of money. I'm afraid that the Ministry of Silly Walks is no longer getting the kind of support it needs. You see there's Defence, Social Security, Health, Housing, Education, Silly Walks ... they're all supposed to get the same. But last year, the Government spent less on the Ministry of Silly Walks than it did on National Defence! Now we get £348,000,000 a year, which is supposed to be spent on all our available products. (he sits down) Coffee?

#5 John Cleese, you are indeed inspiration and as such,
I bring you "Ministry of Silly Walks" on Youtube.

Thanks for the memories. As if England doesn't have enough problems.
