Perhaps the best tv comedy series of all time, this barmy and surreal set of 45 episodes are a total delight, full of lines you can endlessly quote to annoy people ('a comfy chair?') and weird and wonderful sketches.There are some duff moments but let's raise a cheer for Arthur Putey the timid accountant, Mr Praline, the Colonel, the Nudge Nudge Man, Lemming of the BDA, the Big Cheese, the Amazing Kargol/Mystico and Janet, David Unction, Mr Wensleydale, the Spanish Inquisition, the Vercottis, the Hell's Grannies, the Upper-Class Twits, Ken Clean-Air System, the Ministry of Silly Walks, Mrs Crump-Pinnet, Spiny Norman, Ron Obvious, the disgusting family, and Michael Ellis ... Nothing that the Pythons did individually came close to their work together between '69 and '74 for the Beeb.
