Fun fact: EVERYBODY expected the Spanish Inquisition. The Inquisitors were required to give 30 days' notice of a visit. 😂
Oh you had to spoil it. 😁
Otherwise they wouldn't be allowed to withhold your deposit
QI .
@@binaway, it's in a QI book: 1227.
Not sure if that really helps though, if running away is an admission of guilt and if you don't run away they will torture you until you admit what ever they want.
So all you could do is do as they say and hope they aren't angry with you for some reason. Or run away and be quicker than them.
Nobody expects a REACTION to the Spanish Inquisition!
Indeed! 😂
@@MeganRuthI reacted with fear and surprise, and almost fanatical devotion to the .... wait, I'll come in again.
@@MeganRuthI loved this reaction!
Nobody expects a Spanish reaction to the French-Canadian inquisition ... beyond "Que!?!"
"Biggles" was a WWI flying ace who was the hero of a series of pulp novels. That's why the late Terry Jones is wearing an old fashioned aviators helmet.
FWIW: "I didn't expect the Spanish Inquisition!" was just another way of asking, "Why the 3rd degree?", or "Why are you asking me so many questions?". Then Monty Python made it impossible to use the question that way anymore.
Kind of the same thing with spam. I had it as a kid on sandwiches in the lunch my mother made me take to school. Nobody thought anything about it, spam was just cheap meat that came in a tin (Yes, I'm that old). Then Monty Python does their Spam skit, and suddenly nobody can eat spam without quoting from it.
@@InsaneRabbitDaddy The spam you get online is also named so because of this sketch.
I was at a gaming convention years back. Some friends and I were in the hotel restaurant for dinner. Usually con food is pretty generic, like fried chicken and lasagna, but this time the menu was quite varied. One of my friends pointed out a specific dish in pleased surprise. I couldn't resist. "NOBODY expects the Cajun blackened chicken!"
My girlfriend at a con didn't notice the waiter standing right behind her and asked me "Do you think he has gluten free buns?" I looked behind him and replied "No, it's just the way he's standing!"
More Morcamb and Wise than Monty Python but still the British sense of humor.
The last punchline hits harder if you leave the bus journey in.
True story, from some old acquaintances of mine back in the late 70s, when Monty Python and these sketches were very well known in America. There was a Halloween costume party held by the business these folks worked for, and most were sharing what costumes and characters they were going to do up. One fellow steadfastly resisted giving up his secret, surprise costume. All he told the others- repeatedly- is that it would be "something nobody will expect." I leave it to your imaginations as to the description of the costume he turned up wearing!
According to Stephen Fry on Qi... everybody expected the Spanish inquisition as they notified you a month before they arrived
I'm proud of you being willing to do a reaction, while suffering the torture inflicted by a comfy chair.
Fun fact: The first person who has been recorded to have used the phrase fun fact was the cardinal Francisco Jiménez de Cisneros, who was amongst other titles, also Grand Inquisitor of the Spanish Inquisition, who both was behind several publishments from this era (including one where we learned this) and probably the same cardinal this sketch is trying to lampoon.
We get the American Monty Python member in this sketch, Terry Gilliam.
I didn’t know there was an American Monty Python member! Interesting :)
I think Terry Gilliam did a lot of the animation in the TV shows and movies. George Harrison did a cameo in, "The Life of Brian".
@@MeganRuth Terry was the one who grimaced and said "Not the comfy chair!!" He also designed and animated all the cartoons in the series plus the title sequence.
@@aknudsen93George Harrison funded the movie itself.
Ohhhh Gilliam was American! No wonder he rarely spoke but he was funny as Patsy in the Holy Grail film 👑🏰
Great reaction to a classic bit!
Terry Gilliam, the Python that was almost never seen as he was the one who did all the animations, had a big role in these sketches as Cardinal Fang. While it is denied by many, the truth is that Gilliam was locked in a cupboard and forced to animate bits for the Flying Circus to pay for the unpardonable crime of being an American.
I once got sent to the Principal's office in high school for slamming into a class I was ten minutes late for and shouting "NO ONE EXPECTS THE SPANISH INQUISITION!" Since the class was a history class I (inexplicably) expected to escape punishment but, alas, as previously stated, I was sent to the Principal's office with a note detailing my act and asking for a suitable punishment. I might have gotten away with it if we hadn't been studying the Korean War at the time.
Naturally, being the excellently behaved student that I was, I scarpered and left school for the day instead. Scholarly behavior like this was just part of the reason I finished a four year high school career in only five years.
Sadly, more of that story than I care to admit is actually true. Wonderful job Megan Ruth!
What you should have done was to pursue higher education in the field of history, to the point where you would have become a very well thought of historian, at which point you would release, to high praise and critical acclaim, a history book about the Korean War where you detailed the Spanish Inquisition's involvement in said war, and sent a copy of the book to both your former history teacher as well as your former principal, in order to legitimize your sudden outburst from that one time you arrived late to class and feel assured that you would finally be redeemed of the injustice done to you in that event.
@@shoujahatsumetsu LOL! That would be priceless! 😀
You should see their Lumberjack Song.
Oh yeah! And the dead parrot sketch.This is a late parrot! And check out John Cleese in Faulty Towers...
Comic genius.
As an actor of no renown, I don't know how they ever kept a straight face or made it through a skit. Applause.
In the Penguin on the TV sketch, immediately after Graham Chapman yells out, "BURMA!" you can see him trying not to laugh.
It’s always a joy to see people watch these classic Monty Python sketches for the first time
Whoa! I can't say I expected this.
😂 nice one!
Go Megan, love your reactions. As you may know, Terry Gilliam, in one of his few early speaking parts here (flashing his red jocks), went on to become a ranking Hollywood director (Time Bandits,12 Monkeys, The Fisher King, Brazil and more). His distinctive, iconoclastic animated vignettes were an essential part of the Python experience.
I didn’t know that! Thanks for sharing :) I love the animation! So unique to Python
If by "flashing his red jocks" you are referring to the scene at 3:25 when the rack is produced, that is actually Terry Jones, who played Cardinal Biggles. Terrry Gillam played Cardinal Fang who does speak at 2:50, reading out the charges and at 7:50 reacting to the dreaded "comfy Chair"
@@stvdagger8074 Oh sorry, my mistake.
It was also in "sliding doors" movie with Gwyneth Paltrow.
This was first broadcast the day after I was born. it's one of the greatest birthday presents I've ever gotten.
In the 1970s, CBC TV played MPFC in the late afternoon on weekdays, as I recall (I was a kid). It shaped my humour, for sure.
An absolute CLASSIC of Monty Python!
Flying circus made me LOVE British humor.
The counting of we have one, no two, no three etc. was mimicked almost as much as no-one expects....
cardinal fang, the "comfy chair guy," was terry gilliam; the animator and only american of the troupe. he appeared, physically, in more sketches as the series wore on. eventually even given dialogue like "the comfy chair?" he appeared prominently in all the python films and became a filmmaker who directed such notable films as "brazil" (1985), "fear and loathing in las vegas" (1998) and my favorite "12 monkeys" (1995). just love these guys. thanks for the video giggle.
CERTAINLY BEST KNOWN LINES EVER FROM PYTHONS.TERRYGILLIAM, GENIUS DIRECTOR...WROTE THIS SKETCH❤❤❤❤❤
Let's not forget "Spam!"
The old woman, being made of stronger stuff, was Palin's mother; fun fact of the day.
That last sketch loses a lot by not having the context of the buildup in the episode.
Agreed!
lol, most people just re-act to the first part, so glad you stuck with it to the end
Biggles is my favourite. "Uh... nobody..." ("expects") "expects - uh... nobody expects... uh... the Spanish... Inquisition. In fact those who do..." "Shut up!"
When I was 12 years old PBS showed Monty Python on their UHF channel. I've always been grateful.
You gotta love the pilot hat and goggles!
Always fun to watch folks see this for the first time.
A couple of other good Monty Python clips to look out for are. "Upper class twit of the year" and the "Monty Python Olympics" which features such events as, the 100m freestyle for none swimmers..
Fun fact: EVERYONE expects the Spanish Inquisition. They would actually give people notice before they turned up....also I'm pretty sure I stole that fact from QI.
This is absolutely hilarious I was wondering when you would get to it
Not even the Spanish Inquisition expects the Spanish Inquisition.
You use the expression when someone starts asking you questions about something that happened in your life and the questions carry on longer or get more detailed than usual. You say, like, 'Geez, I didn't expect the Spanish Inquisition!'
[Horns] Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition!
That was my wife's response after our INS interview. I told her I _did_ expect the Spanish Inquisition which was why I hadn't been sleeping too well for the past week. Do you know how hard it is to respond to a civil servant's question "when were you and your wife last intimate?" without suffixing your answer with "...how about you?"
Sad that this omitted the majority of the credits sequence of the Spanish Inquisition sketches.
Possibly because RUclips would have flagged that 'Devil's Galop' (Dick Barton theme) playing as the credits music.
The Pythons were the most brilliantly silly comedy troupe ever.
You should really watch the full episodes it puts it all into a better context. Plus there's a bit missing where there trying to get from one place to other via a bus and different modes of transport. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
You could see that Michael was trying not to crack up - lol xx
This is good. I didn't expect the Spanish Inquisition.
I was expecting to see the Spanish Inquisition on the top of a bus.
Yes, I wondered where that went...'three for the Old Bailey'😄
@@mark-nm4tcHurry! The titles have started. Damn! - It’s the Producer!
The final credits end with blank screen and, ‘Oh bugger!’ Quite spicy for the Beeb in those days! Biggles for Inquisitors OK! So pleased young people still enjoy this surreal brilliance. ❤ from John, UK.
That got quite surreal in places. I wasn't expecting that!
It's a brilliant throw away.line...that.us pythonists use....also "and now it's " but the most famous, even Elvis used it is... " tis but a scratch" 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
On the record albums, there were more sketches:
“Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition! Our chief weapon is surprise-That’s all, just surprise.”
“What about fear?” “Oh yes, yes, all right, ‘AND fear’.”
“And a fanatical-?” “Shut up!”
I used to say that to my wife when i came home late from the pub.😅😊😅😂
It’s hilarious because actually everybody expected the Spanish Inquisition 😂😂😂😂
Check out the Spanish Inquisition scene from Mel Brook's History of the World Part I - Hilarious!
Terry Gilliam did all animation. Only American in group❤
I love Monthy Python, but I clicked this video just to see you having fun.
I've seen Monthy Python enough times in the last 30 years to recognize the scenes.
Pilot Helmet and goggles = Sky Pilot, an old term given to Clergy serving in the Military, a nice nod to their service, IMO.
I love the clerics playing football in full regalia, absurdly funny.
You never expected it.
Nobody expects the Spanish Inquestion....yet they left the door unlocked totally expecting the Spanish Inquestion!😅
The Roman Catholic Church has been a barrel of laughs throughout the centuries.
Megan didn't expect the Spanish Inquisition !!!!
Enjoy your reviews!
Thank you!
I always expect the Spanish inquisition, thats what keeps me safe from the spanish inquisition.
🙏RIP TERRY JONES🙏 cardinal in goggles😆😅😄
You mean Cardinal Biggles?
A heads up for you young lady beware of the soft cushions and comfy chair! You might get poked! They are brutal..... I don't know if you are tough enough to withstand that abuse. BUT you made it......... Good job
...actually the Spanish Inquisition was required to give their victims a month beforehand.
I highly recommend you watch Monty Python and the Holy Grail.
It reminds me of the boys school I went to!
you make my heart happy
Palin is a genius.
Er...there's more. About 2 minutes more, actually; the entire outro is the Spanish Inquisition catching a bus to beat the very end of the show...
"Biggles" is playing with the fact that there were a series of novels and short story collections around a Brit airman named Biggles. Early books are really quite racist and appalling, much of which was edited out of the final ones. The readership also downshifted from adults through teens to tweens. So, WW I flying helmet? Ah, that's Biggles. No idea if there's any other link between the character in the skit and the name--maybe he's just an appalling person?--but British audiences would have recognized the reference. Glad you enjoyed it!
@blortmeister His early books about WWI weren't racist. His later ones were. His science fiction books were about as racist as racist could be. The language is shocking.
Thanks, I appreciate the correction. Happy New Year, mate.@@Poliss95
@@blortmeister I suspect the only reason his racism didn't show in his Royal Flying Corps books was because there were only white people in the RFC during the war. In his sci-fi books he writes that the African they find abandoned on another planet wouldn't be able to understand he was on another planet because once the people of the continent had reached a certain level of happiness that they stopped developing intelligence.
Monty Python was patchy but the Spanish Inquisition was Python at its best.
Cardinal! Fetch. The comfy chair!!!
Monty python were brilliant humour for it's day ..
"I confess"
Your laugh is so cute
The mantra of Monty Python is simple. Make skits a 12 year old would make. Immature, silly, possibly gross, and not serious.
Hi Megan. Good reaction
Thank you! 😊
Smashing it
DO MOSQUITO HUNTING !
They cut out the part with them on the bus.
Cleese needs to do one on the american taliban
Nobody expects my reaction to this reaction video.
Another Monty Python skit you could react to is The Argument Clinic
@HardRockMark No she couldn't.
@@Poliss95 Yes she could!
@@josefschiltz2192 Did you pay for the 5 minute argument or the full half hour?
@@Poliss95 Well, actually, a few column inches!
@@Poliss95 I've told you once...
If you try explaining the humour to anyone, then it's best to give up immediately. 🙂It is random, genius and hilarious. You don't explain things like that. What's the point? You just go with the flow.
G'day folks. Very silly. I do hereby approve of such nonsense. Even Spike Milligan came to retire in Australia. Woy Woy. A place not a sound.
I confess
Hey there lady,
Have some maple syrup. Megan beware of the rack & the soft pillow...... And or the comfy chair!! Do you confess??? Later!!!!!! Thanks!!!!!
I was expecting it for years, but then we had brexit
Last chance Megan, confess!!!
NOT the comfy chair!!!!!
Absurd , but still funny even after all these decades .
...and me!?
Gudvid
You mean anyone can produce a reaction to anything and monetize it?
I have not been to channel very often. But I must warn you about the soft cushion. You might get poked with one. One least time Megan --- Confess.......... Until the next time. BYE!!!!!!
Now find the Not the Nine oclock News sketch ...life of Christ
To get the best from that sketch, you really need to see first the (serious?) debate chaired by Tim Rice where John Cleese and Michael Palin debate their controversial film Monty Python's Life Of Brian with Malcolm Muggeridge and the then Bishop of Southwark, Mervyn Stockwood. Needless to say, the Pythons run rings around the christians. It's on RUclips somewhere.
To ruin a classic Python bit in a funny way:
