I saw the first ever episode of MPFC on the BBC. At school the next day I talked about it with mates who had also seen it. We were puzzled and only slightly amused, but didn't really have a clue what it all meant, but for some strange reason, we had to see what happened next.. Mostly out of curiosity, I suppose.
Over time, we became addicts and the in-jokes of our little group included references (accompanied by helpless giggling) to such inane things as flying sheep, lumberjacks in women's clothes, Spam, and The Upper Class Twit Of The Year Race
I did a silly walk in the school hall once. Well, it was a double dare, so I couldn't back out and keep face, could I? It cost me a bloody detention.
ANFSCD is a collection of old series sketches. To me it's priceless. It brings back my puzzlement as to what it all meant, my adolescent angst lusting for Carol Cleveland but mostly, the laughter. I'm still laughing now.
Love 'em or hate 'em, you can't ignore the Pythons. Genius
