We're all sad to hear of the recent passing of our dear Terry Jones. RIP Arthur Two Sheds Jackson.
Silly? Putting one thing on top of the other? You are a very naughty boy!! RIP Terry, thanks for all the laughs....
I saw two Terries, once, at the Brighton festival. Terry Jones ans Terry Pratchett. They were so much fun. I miss them.
who?
"Ask me about my music"
RIP Old Son
We would like to offer salutations to our members in Canada, whose nation has not only been put on top of our United States but has a bit of our United States put on top of it!
Poetically put. And now, your comment is on top of my comment.

America is Canada’s underpants.
To any other enthusiasts of putting things on top of other things, you may be interested in a new invention known as the "cat." The "cat," in addition to being the perfect size and shape to be placed on top of a variety of other things, will automatically place ITSELF on top of other things without any external assistance or prompting.
Very funny. Well put.
Sir, I must object in the strongest possible terms.
After taking your advice and acquiring a "cat" although it does on a regular basis, place ITSELF on top of other things, for example chairs, tables bedding etc. It seems to like nothing more than to knock other things off.
Yours faithfully.
Ivor Bigbotty.
I would also like to point out that Mr. Chapman's statement cannot be true: everything that he saw must, at the very least, have been on top of the Earth (more specifically the Earth's crust), unless one is to suppose that the Earth is NOT a "thing!" Personally, I cannot imagine anything more err... "thingy" than the Earth!
Mr Bigbotty, I say, maybe you just made the unfortunate decision of acquiring the wrong model? I have been putting things on top of other things for years, and by means of pursuing this little passion of mine I have also bought a “cat”. And I really must say that it has been a tremendous success. My model does not only place ITSELF on top of other things without any assistance at all, but also puts dozens and hundreds of things (called “hairs”) on top of the things she had put herself on top of previously.
I strongly recommend one of these types for future acquirements.
Yours etc. etc.
The potential drawback of the "cat" however, is that while it likes to be put and put itself on top of other things. It also has a tendency to enjoy being IN things or under things. Which I fear is the antithesis of the whole Society.
I love how they are so into it until someone mentions it’s silly and they immediately agree and adjourned forever.
Like... teenagers.
Pity it’s not yet happened with men calling themselves trans women and being allowed to compete in female sports.
My two sheds need to be one on top of the other.
Yes it's like real life, but the timing has to be careful, otherwise the mentioner gets ejected from the meeting and cancelled forever. The knack to getting a silly organisation to delete a project or position statement or itself is "reading the room", so as to time the proposal when most people realise it is silly but haven't dared to defy the consensus. The more annual reviews I attend on /providing trans toilets/building affordable houses/protecting vulnerable/abolishing Evil/Saving The Planet/" the more I get flashbacks to this sketch, which I first saw in my teens.
@@arthurjackson402 well said that man !!
This sketch is 52 years old and it still works well today.
Oh my god. This sketch is 52 years old.
It works better, because the real world is getting to be almost as ridiculous.
@@deathwarmedup73 YEsssSS clapping sounds
@@deathwarmedup73 Yes indeed ridiculous and very dangerous.
That is because humor like this is timeless.

“Meeting adjourned forever”. How many of us have longed to hear those very words?
Many of us - many!
Yes...I true Python style....I'm all for putting the cart before the horse ..that's how it works today !!!
Great line.
Still waiting for the NRA to say that. 😫
I used to work for the U.S. Civil Service. Forever isn't long enough.
I like this sketch because it mentions my home county, Staffordshire, which normally doesn't get much press. I can confirm that we are not big on puttings things on top of other things; we find it silly. Even putting jam on toast is discouraged.
Once you put butter on top of toast, you cannot put the toast on top of the floor anymore without flipping it first.
And who wants to go through all that hassle?
And what would be so wrong with putting toast on top of the jam? Let’s think outside the box, people!
@@chilitoday That's right. So long you put one thing on the top of another, you are OK.
How do you explain Stoke-on-Trent then?
@@chrisstokes2044 Stoke is a unitary authority and can do what they like, the silly bastards.
This sketch has two ridiculous things in it:
1. The silly things people get to
2. The idea that logic could change the ideas of those who have put a lot into it.
Hi Julian, Scottish or York?
@@fleotusleotus8642 I am Australian, if that is the question you are asking.
Yeah, the dude just accepted that it was silly with hardly a second’s hesitation, as if his worldview hadn’t just been smashed to bits

What is remarkable is how everybody is adamant at the whole idea and the moment he changes opinion everybody goes along.

iow: this is how academia functions...
It's great how Monty Python stays funny even as the world becomes more like Monty Python.
Your post is atop my post, so there we have it; job done.
It's heartbreaking, fucking heartbreaking actually. There you go, there's 2 things atop the one thing i began with and it only adds to the emphasis of the first thing. How perfect...... perfectly wretched. Even though I'm being serious, as the keeper of the grail, i can't help myself.
As the world becomes more like Monty Python, I lose my sense of humor, or at the very least it turns very bitter and dry.
Just yesterday I experienced a real-life skit that was and is as unfunny as the Monty Python counterpart was funny.
Reminds me a little of every single business meeting I’ve been to.
It is the fact that as we become more abserd we have learnded to laugh at people who were absurd before us. We have a long history of absurdities behind us and look forward to even greater absudities in our future.
I do, very much, regret that this comment is not particulary absurd. I beg your pardon.
How ironic is It that none of them was wearing a hat?
They were sitting on them .
Doing his job. Top man!
They are wearing bow ties on top of white shirts
John Lowdon jolly good show that!
I'd guess that they don't consider themselves a thing 😉
As an Australian, we are well aware that the entire world is on top of us, except New Zealand, of course. This almost makes it bearable.
No wonder the Australasian branch flourishes. Well done indeed!
@@brothermaynard5155 - a compliment is as good as a kiss.
And even internally, Australia is on top of Tasmania. Good show!
This gets me every time. Nothing spoofs the pompous side of Britain as deliciously as this sketch.
Silly, pompous twits having meetings for silly, useless things!
Yep.....kind of sums up the government! 😅
This is literally every committee I’ve ever sat on.
Seems to be be one of those sketches close to the truth, as you have verified.
Except that they never adjourn forever, and they really, really need to.
😂
Did you sit on the committee, or were you put on top of the committee?
Literally
After 30 years of working in large companies, this makes for painful viewing
Do you HAVE berry berry? Is there any cure?
Working for 1.5 years in a multinational corporation and this sums up my job and any meeting I have ever had since I began working here, even " 1 on 1s. "
@@Juppie902 same here mate. 1 year here. I hate companies work lol
Somebody must have put those societies on top of other things - just who??
I load parcels and pallets on top of other parcels and pallets, yet have not heard of my application for the membership of this corporation.
Graham was a pure talent and could easily juxtapose the ridiculous with the believable. RIP my good man
Agreed. I always felt Graham was the George Harrison of the ensemble: irreverent and extremely talented but certainly overshadowed by the Lennon-McCartney power of Cleese and Palin.
This sketch played a part in me quitting my job to persue something more worthwhile. It shines a light on how pointless a lot of meetings generally are, which helped me realise why I was unhappy and felt I was wasting my time. I've now gone on to build a career from my creative work and it all feels so much better now. Thank you, Pythons
Hear, Hear!! Yes, I stopped attending mandatory meetings at a job years ago after an explanation that due to management totally ignoring what the workers actually doing the job had to say it was obvious the meetings were pointless even if they were paying me to attend when I was scheduled off. After nothing happened to me, a few more of the dozen employees opted out, and no more meetings were scheduled for about two years.
Congrats! This skit is one of my favorites
"We must never forget, if there was not one thing that was not on top of another thing, our society would be nothing more than a meaningless body of men that gathered together for no good purpose."
What like the Civil Service?
YeSS clapping sounds
You misquoted. It was like this: "If there was NOT one thing that was NOT on top of another thing..." He is saying that if all things already were on top of something, then the society would be pointless
Typical of Staffordshire to let the team down.
You didn't quote right. Between 'thing' and 'on top of' he clearly says 'that was *NOT*'. Did 164 thumbs up miss this?
During my working life I sat through so many meetings during which I thought "what a complete waste of time". I'd imagine it was something similar that inspired this sketch. still makes me laugh years later.
My personal favourite is the meeting whose only purpose was to discuss the date for the next meeting.
I never wanted to punch someone so badly before or ever since.
@@Soridan Lol! They had that at my work too. And also a meeting to review the previous meeting. Thank god I left.
What a helpful comment.
Lol. I can't think of many teachers' workshops I went to that weren't as useless as this.
you shldve stood up and said 'meeting adjourned forever'
This reminds me of my late grandfather who every year went off to a 'conference' whose main purpose seems to have been having a good time. There was the odd lecture and group discussion but also several golf sessions and evening dinner dances. I presume the cost of having a good time could be put down as 'business expenses' for tax purposes. He retired in 1957 and the fun events stopped.
pharmaceutical companies throw "summer courses" and "medical seminars" in tropical destinations like Aruba as a perk for proscribing doctors. Legal corruption.
Mine done similar, it was just a glorified p!ss up for a week 😂
Having worked for 3 international organizations and participating in... hundreds of meetings, I must say this brought a lot of memories...
...most of then profoundly damaging, I'm sure. I lost my patience at one job, and told management I would no longer attend meetings in which all the decisions had already been made by people that had no idea what they were doing, while ignoring us in the trenches who did. For some reason they never disciplined me, and at least two more people stopped attending the meetings, which were later done away with. It's the small victories that keep me from jumping out the window to this day.
I used to do useless meetings with useless people.
Walked away. I'm more interesting in getting work done than in documenting work or discussing work.
They figure out their own paperwork now. They come out to the floor when they have problems.
I used to minute these meetings - I could fit a whole hour’s worth on 1 page!
"There are still many things.. and I cannot emphasis this more precisely... not on top of other things."
And that is a bit puzzling, because ... how? From our earthly perspective there is only one thing that is not on top of something else and that is the very center of our planet.
"cannot emphasize this too strongly". how can you get it wrong? it's right there! are you deaf? even the closed captions have it correct. what's the matter with you? how is it possible to be this stupid?
peter g I think you might be having a bad day... Do you want to talk about it?
Looks like something Trump would say. It is sad but true
Hey baby, wanna help me put a thing on top of another thing 😉
As someone who puts things on top of other things for a living, I must say agree that we must not become complacent.
Hear, hear!

Typical engineering conference.
As an American, I truly wish it was so easy that someone just pointing out that something is silly would cause the immediate amicable dissolution of the organization committed to it.
Can I, as a non-American, go political and give the NRA as an example, or would this cause me to be shot?
@@gwyneddboom2579 The NRA is a bit silly, but the right own a weapon to defend yourself from a criminal trying to harm you with another weapon is not silly, it's just the fallen state of man.
@@gwyneddboom2579 , can I, as a non-American, and therefore in no way associated with the NRA, say that the right to bear arms is the hallmark of a free country?
@@gwyneddboom2579 Don't be silly; we can find other reasons to have people shot. 😮As a non-American, you might not realize Americans have the right to keep and bear arms in our Constitution, and although the NRA is floundering at the moment pretty badly, there are other organizations steadfastly defending against civilian disarmament hidden under 'crime control' and 'it's for the children' and 'you don't need that' propaganda.
@Mamma Mia No, no, no, that's silly! Very silly indeed!
Graham's delivery is always spot on.. He plays the brigadier or Sgt major perfectly in some of the sketches
I'm putting this comment on top of everyone else's
How did you do this? I mean... no, seriously?
Meeting adjourned forever.
I can top that.
You did it you crazy son of a bitch
Silly! Didn't you hear? The meeting has been adjourned forever!
Pythonesque red herring joke: the Australasian branch should have been the Society for Putting Things Underneath Other Things.
But then they'd be the total antithesis of the Society for putting things on TOP of other things.. (The enemy, if you may)!! You are confusing them with a autonomous Australasian Society ( and not a branch of a British based society) :)
But, wouldn't that be the same thing? The moment you put something underneath something else one way or the other you're having one thing on top of another thing.

The Archbishop of Canterbury is a member in good standing with Putting Things on top of other Things. At one point he put a crown on top of the Queen. Well done!
@Ad Lockhorst And then the Queen put dirt atop his bones! Touché!
Yet the Celtic Gods are greater than the Church of England
Now that I come to think of it, the Queen herself could be a member as well. She has put a sword on top of so many people's shoulders. (Knighthood)

I have a one year old who loves putting things on top of other things. I can't help but think of this sketch whenever I watch him putting things on top of other things.
Let him watch it! He might get a kick out of the accents and the “harrumph harrumph.”

@@Liriq good, thank you! He still puts things on top of other things, just with more of a constructive mindset.

Shunned and marginalised.
Sounds like you were put on the bottom of another thing.
I am so sorry to hear about that.
Can you put it all behind you?
You couldn't have slid the something just slightly on top of the other thing? That's better than leaving it completely off.
@@GregOrCreg incorrect. As the first writer said, he was marginalised. Ergo, he was put to the side, given the same treatment he had given the thing he earlier put.
Breath deeply and think of England. There's a chap.
After I retired over 15 years ago I would have nightmares of being in meetings that I couldn't leave, that accomplished nothing and mostly talked about more meetings. I still have them on occasions. The worst part of all of these interminable meetings meant that I would have to work on my own time to actually accomplish the tasks assigned to me. Scream.
I quit attending meetings, and was told I had to attend. So I told my boss that my attendance was completely unnecessary, since all the decisions had already been made, nobody cared what the staff told management, and I was not going to waste my life in another useless staff meeting, even though I was being paid. Since it was for a 911 Center (999 in the UK) I fully expected to be suspended. Ironically absolutely nothing happened to me, and after a few people found out what I did, they also stopped attending, and ultimately the meetings were cancelled for about 3 years(!)
Yeah "being there"..
wouldn't that be great name for a movie?
@Mark H. I hope someone said, "meeting adjourned forever!" 😂
At the end of last meeting I attended, they asked if anyone had anything to add, or any suggestions....
I suggested we have no more meetings! 😁
Exactly, my experiences were groaning as I counted the additional hours I would have to personally spend with each hollow gasp out of every speakers moutth
When Carl Sagan selected the material that went on the the two Golden Records that were placed in the Voyager Spacecraft, it's a real shame this 2 minutes and 15 seconds didn't make the cut, because it probably says more about our world than anything else I've ever heard.
This sketch always reminds me of when I worked in the Public Service.
I put Monty Python on top of the list of great comic acts.
Best comment😊👍
The list of Great Academical Comedy Acts. There are loads of less high-brow acts being on as high a level as the MP.
Wow! How’d you do that?
Sounds like a staff meeting when I worked for the government...
Seems about right.
Everything is already on top of everything else. That's the beauty.
Graham was a good actor with a great presence and a true gentleman. He left too soon, unfortunately.
Why was this video on top of all other videos on my list of recommended videos?
The society put it there.
The underlying cause is that you had too often overlooked it.
The Society: You're welcome. 😁

Because it had to be on top of other things, silly!
This sketch was the inspiration that led to the founding of the LEGO company.

See what you did there, brilliant, wish I had said it.😁
Great comment! I would give a like, but seeing as you currently have 69 likes, I feel adding one more would go against the spirit of the sketch ;)

Well, Lego ws a ripoff of Kiddicraft, a British toy, so it's at least true that Lego was inspired by the British.
THE most underrated Python sketch of all!
I once asked someone at a party about the most interesting thing he'd put on top of another thing. He immediately became defensive and thought I was talking about something like guilt on top of guilt. Interesting how we all see things differently!
Graham being able to clearly say this script is just amazing
Reading it ... there was too many pieces to perform - they were busy then.
That was the hardest part for him.

I'm personally MORTIFIED that they made no REFERENCE AT ALL to their sister group, the Royal Society for Putting Things UNDER Other Things.
i will be writing to the papers about this - I have put it on the top of my to-do list ......
Oh Damn!!!
Well done that chap.
Fuz Capp are you saying it’s important to put your women’s things under your mans things ?
I prefer the organization Im a part of: The Royal Society for Putting Things INSIDE Other Things. It saves space whilst technically accomplishing the same goals as the other two societies.
They also didn’t reference my favored group, The Royal Society for Putting Things Aside. I would complain but that would require a bit of work, one of my favorite things to put aside!
Finally, a cause I can get behind. Or, on top of.
It’s at shame that the meeting was adjourned, forever.
This sketch has gone right to the top of my list of my things on top of other things.
Somebody missed the chance to put their foot on top of the table.
Personally, I think it was a bit rash to simply decide that this whole thing is a bit silly, just because some members maybe didn't have the same sense of dedication and love of traditions as the rest of the Society For Putting Things On Top Of Other Things. But on the other hand, I understand that not everyone has the same options as their circumstances are different, and so they might face unreasonable challenges. So, what I would suggest they should've done, was simply make a merger with the Society For Putting Things Next To Each Other - that way they wouldn't have things out of order just because it's bloody difficult to put puddings on top of pyramids, or jellyfish on top of flagpoles, and thus they could've continued on for a very long time.
Heresy! Sheer heresy! 😤
Here Here! Well said!
@@indyrock8148 Sir, let us see YOU put a jellyfish atop a flagpole...

@@bretthess6376 well sir, if putting those particular things on top of those other particular things is beyond you, then you must stick with merely putting them side by side.
A distasteful solution for those who have truly mastered putting things on top of other things.

I was going to join the Apathy Society, but couldn't be bothered....
I was going to join the Procrastinators Club but I kept putting it off. I'll do it next week for sure.
I said "sign me up for the Apathy Society immediately!" They said "not with that attitude."
The Society for the Promotion of Laziness stopped attributing the Most Lazy Person Award because the nominees would never come to collect it.
I'm surprised that they didn't mention the threat cats posed, knocking things off of other things like there's no tomorrow as they do.

When someone is too apologetic about 'wasting my time' when I offer him help, my answer is always 'Look its either helping you with this of wasting time on watch mojo clips so you surely do not waste my time...'.
Monty Python's mantra; it doesn't matter how nonsensical something sounds, just run with it and it becomes comedy gold. Until it becomes too silly, of course.
And then Graham comes out in his police uniform and stops all the silliness.
Gentlemen, we've reached the final month of the year, which is the only month with 11 other months on top of it! Well done, December!
Yet, we must not forget, it is also the month that is not on top of another month. So there is still work to be done!

If there is a Monty Python Fan Club, it had damn well better be called "The Royal Society For Putting Things On Top Of Other Things."
@David McDonald yes. Permanently disband after every meeting. I like how you think.
The RS4PToToOT?
@Mike Hegarty Ah, right. Just across the street from the argument clinic.
@@samarvora7185 No they're not.
@@michaelkemel9711 Yes they bloody well are.
But, by placing one thing on top of another, have you not just placed some beneath, creating one large conglomerate of a single thing with nothing upon it....
You can have a man. You can have a hat. Once the hat is put a top the man, it instantly becomes a hatted man, which we all can agree would require a thing to be placed on top...
Perhaps a button, or a feather, maybe a very tiny pebble...
I site the precedent of Yankee Doodle, who was on a pony, under a hat, that had a feather on top and also not,... existing between dimentions neither on top or bellow anything as both macaroni and feather until it's definitely placed by Mr. Doodle.
That was just dandy.
You're really on top of things.
I'd like to point your attention to the fact that it is the "Society for Putting Things on Top of Other Things", not the "Society for Things That Have Been Put On Top Of Other Things". It is the action, not the outcome, that is of utmost concern.
Solipsist Doddle! Next you'll be citing the "world is a disc on the back of four elephants standing on a giant turtle" heresy! You'd make a mockery of our Society and a laughingstock of our Society's goals!
Egad, Sir!
😂😂😂
Every time Mr. Chapman gets to the Australasia segment I feel this uncontrollable urge to yawn, look at my watch, and fiddle restlessly with a napkin. Talk about hitting the head on the nail.
It's Deja Vu all over again, you know.
I was once assigned to a committee. It was around 50 fart sniffers that would gather every two months, most just showing up for the burritos. After one year I compared the agendas from the first and most recent meetings and they were exactly the same. I never went again.
1:22 I love the appreciative little noise someone makes here
This clip seems more relevant today than in the day.
Absolute gold. Thank you for the upload. That was brilliant. Nothing else quite makes me laugh like Monty Python does!
This is the most productive meeting I've witnessed in quite a while.
Another perfect acting performance of dear graham Chapman. Even his intonation is perfectly done.
"Right. Let's _not_ go to Camelot. It is a silly place!"
Out of all the funnyness in this sketch, i still think his ”neo.” Is the best. The timing and intonation just perfect
What a business meeting sounds like in your head after 1 hour of listening to the same thing.
I watched this episode when it was first aired on the BBC. I told my daughters boyfriend about it years later and he was in stitches.
He was just thinking about putting his "thing" on top of your daughter's "thing". 🤔😜
I hope you realise that you have set yourself up for some really crass comments.
John Cleese doing Chapman's regular line was the punchline here.
I always thought this a good parody of government departments.
I love how everyone hollers support for things on top of other things but when the society is ended, they love that idea as well.
