Monthy Python's Holly Grail - Swamp Castle
Keenest guards ever!
FATHER:
One day, lad, all this will be yours!
PRINCE HERBERT:
What, the curtains?
FATHER:
No. Not the curtains, lad. All that you can see, stretched out over the hills and valleys of this land! This'll be your kingdom, lad.
HERBERT:
But Mother--
FATHER:
Father, lad. Father.
HERBERT:
B-- b-- but Father, I don't want any of that.
FATHER:
Listen, lad. I built this kingdom up from nothing. When I started here, all there was was swamp. Other kings said I was daft to build a castle on a swamp, but I built it all the same, just to show 'em. It sank into the swamp. So, I built a second one. That sank into the swamp. So, I built a third one. That burned down, fell over, then sank into the swamp, but the fourth one... stayed up! And that's what you're gonna get, lad: the strongest castle in these islands.
HERBERT:
But I don't want any of that. I'd rather--
FATHER:
Rather what?!
HERBERT:
I'd rather...
[music]
...just... sing!
FATHER:
Stop that! Stop that! You're not going into a song while I'm here. Now listen, lad. In twenty minutes, you're getting married to a girl whose father owns the biggest tracts of open land in Britain.
HERBERT:
B-- but I don't want land.
FATHER:
Listen, Alice,--
HERBERT:
Herbert.
FATHER:
'Erbert. We live in a bloody swamp. We need all the land we can get.
HERBERT:
But-- but I don't like her.
FATHER:
Don't like her?! What's wrong with her?! She's beautiful. She's rich. She's got huge... tracts o' land!
HERBERT:
I know, but I want the-- the girl that I marry to have...
[music]
...a certain,... special... something!
FATHER:
Cut that out! Cut that out! Look, you're marrying Princess Lucky, so you'd better get used to the idea!
[smack]
Guards! Make sure the Prince doesn't leave this room until I come and get him.
GUARD #1:
Not to leave the room even if you come and get him.
GUARD #2:
Hic!
FATHER:
No, no. Until I come and get him.
GUARD #1:
Until you come and get him, we're not to enter the room.
FATHER:
No, no. No. You stay in the room and make sure he doesn't leave.
GUARD #1:
And you'll come and get him.
GUARD #2:
Hic!
FATHER:
Right.
GUARD #1:
We don't need to do anything apart from just stop him entering the room.
FATHER:
No, no. Leaving the room.
GUARD #1:
Leaving the room. Yes.
[sniff]
FATHER:
All right?
GUARD #1:
Right.
GUARD #2:
Hic!
FATHER:
Right.
GUARD #1:
Oh, if-- if-- if, uhh-- if-- if-- w-- ehh-- i-- if-- if we--
FATHER:
Yes? What is it?
GUARD #1:
Oh, i-- if-- i-- oh--
FATHER:
Look, it's quite simple.
GUARD #1:
Uh...
FATHER:
You just stay here and make sure 'e doesn't leave the room. All right?
GUARD #2:
Hic!
FATHER:
Right.
GUARD #1:
Oh, I remember. Uhh, can he leave the room with us?
FATHER:
N-- no, no. No. You just keep him in here and make sure he--
GUARD #1:
Oh, yes. We'll keep him in here, obviously, but if he had to leave and we were with him--
FATHER:
No, no, no, no. Just keep him in here--
GUARD #1:
Until you or anyone else--
FATHER:
No, not anyone else. Just me.
GUARD #1:
Just you.
GUARD #2:
Hic!
FATHER:
Get back.
GUARD #1:
Get back.
FATHER:
All right?
GUARD #1:
Right. We'll stay here until you get back.
GUARD #2:
Hic!
FATHER:
And, uh, make sure he doesn't leave.
GUARD #1:
What?
FATHER:
Make sure 'e doesn't leave.
GUARD #1:
The Prince?
FATHER:
Yes. Make sure 'e doesn't leave.
GUARD #1:
Oh, yes, of course.
GUARD #2:
Hic!
GUARD #1:
Ah. I thought you meant him. You know, it seemed a bit daft me havin' to guard him when he's a guard.
FATHER:
Is that clear?
GUARD #2:
Hic!
GUARD #1:
Oh, quite clear. No problems.
FATHER:
Right. Where are you going?
GUARD #1:
We're coming with you.
FATHER:
No, no. I want you to stay here and make sure 'e doesn't leave.
GUARD #1:
Oh, I see. Right.
HERBERT:
But Father!
FATHER:
Shut your noise, you! And get that suit on!
[music]
And no singing!
GUARD #2:
Hic!
FATHER:
Oh, go and get a glass of water.
[clank]
"She's got HUGE...tracts of land."
"tracts"
Matt McNeil , You keep using that word. I don't think it means what you think it means.
Why do I get the feeling the king was going to say something else
@@jimhuffman9434 Nah!
@@DieFlabbergast no no let him speak I think he's got a point
How can one scene have SO many recurring jokes? The singing, forgetting each other's name, the confused guards...it's brilliantly written and expertly executed.
You forgot the kings scalp condition.I think it's CROWN Propecia.
And the sinking in the swamp
Even the hiccups
I didn’t expect the Spanish Inquisition
@@kevinshanahan6064 Nobody does!
farther: one day lad all this will be yours
Herbert: what the curtains?
father: no not the curtains lad
herbert: but mother
father: father im father.
this kills me eveytime
Hahahahahahahaha yes hollariouss
my favourite line from the whole film. Python had so many amazing seemingly thow away lines
I have no idea why that line makes me laugh as hard as it does.
Well of course the fourth castle stayed up, it's resting on top of the first three
That's also what I thought. And, I think it would have been great if the king had said that!
Genius!
That's the joke, dumbass.
So he was the first member of the Royal Society for putting things on top of other things.
nope you got it wrong.
Whenever a Disney song comes in, I want a character to say “Stop that, stop that! Nobody is singing while I’m here.”
I wished this guy showed up in Joker 2 just to say this.
The "make sure he doesn't leave" is my favorite movie scene of all time. It's just perfect.
Mine too.
The ancestors of those guards are today's flat Earthers.
Philly Decay PHLDK No, ancestors. After an accident with a rubber band, some contraceptives & a time machine.
I've had people working for me that take instruction just like those guards
Haggle scene from Life of Brian is also perfect.
I’ll never forget the first time I saw this film and that moment when the Prince goes “I’d rather just sing!!”… I rolled my eyes because I didn’t want to sit through a musical number only to have the father character quite literally express my exact feelings 😂
I prefer the version in, ironically, the stage musical, where the father actually threatens the orchestra 😂
This time the hiccup killed me
Father figure? I thought he was the mother...
@@willw1991 Father, lad. Father.
“Make sure he doesn’t leave”
“Go get a glass of water”
So subtle but so clever
I don't understand. Is it funny because he was told not leave just moments ago and now he's told to get a glass of water for which he needs to leave the room?
what episode of game of thrones is this from?
it's monty python not GOT
+Marta Kaizak Bullshit
The best one.
+Mary Jac Joffrey and Robert look less dead then the last time I seen them.
+Mary Jac The Red Wedding one, obviously.
Sadly, the curtains have closed on Terry Jones wonderful life today.. While he never grabbed headlines like Cleese or Palin, Terry Jones was such a brilliant writer and director. Thank you thank you thank you for all of the laughs.
He is the reason flying circus had the flow from sketch to sketch. We've lost a legend for sure. Rest in peace nobody is going to stop you from singing now
He's gone to meet Dr. Chapman
Nah, he's just resting.
@@samarvora7185 LOL
Samar Vora BEAUtiful plumage, eh Squire? If we hadn't nailed 'im to 'is writing desk, 'e would of muscled up those bars and VOOM!
“But mother”
“Father lad, father”
“But father”
“Listen, Alice”
“Herbert”
🤣🤣🤣
I always thought he said “Alex”, but Alice is better haha.
Me talking to my niece
"But, Sandra.."
"Emily"
"Emily"
They're both trans
@@evelynr5327 no you're just mental
I build this Death Star up from nothing. When I started, all there was was space. All the other empires said it was daft to build a Death Star in space, but I built it all the same, just to show them. It got blown up by rebels, so I built a 2nd one. That was blown up by rebels. So I built a 3rd one. That was beaten, damaged, and then got blown up by Rebels, but the 4th one stayed up!
and how goes the 4th death star then?
But i don't want any of that.
Luke: but father, i dont want any of that id rather.
Vader: rather what?
Luke: id rather be a jedi (music nearly starts)
Vader: (music stops) no no stop that stop that.
was the third one Starkiller base?
Jackson Mares yes
Terry Jones is perfect as the sickly Prince. And for some reason the way the king grabs him and slaps him at the end always cracks me up.
Best thing Terry ever did.
@@thebrazilianatlantis165 Oooo I wouldn't say that.
"What the curtains ?". That always makes me tear up.
He’s not sickly, he’s gay
He is Terry Jones ??????? Damn ! Good make up
I love how the guards finally seem to get it at the end and then when the king leaves, they line up behind him. Perfect!
To this day when someone's doing something annoying I say "stop that stop that! you're not goin' into a song while I'm here". Of course they have no idea why I said that.
when every I want to make a joke about huge knockers I always call them 'great tracks of land' and it goes over everone's head...especially since I'm a yank.
gunmunz ya... I use that one too. Lots of lines from this movie I still use. Definitely stuck in our heads. Strangely enough I had the record before I saw the movie. It was hilarious too... especially the fake broadcast of the movie premiere.
hebber1961 I know this is a year old but Monty Python in general is quoteable
+gunmunz Definately.
I always do the "If, if, err....if, if". :o)
Who would say no to getting their hands on huge tracks of land?!
Barry Andersen He's either gay or asexual.
Barry Andersen "Tracts of land"
+Matthew Christiansen I'm pretty sure he's gay. And that's not a homophobic judgment.
Barry Andersen I would to land that looks pretty ugly, regardless of size. Quality over quantity.
He’s gay
AND NO SINGING.
Hic!
Oh go get a glass of water.
I wish that would happen during a Disney movie with a grouchy character
@@marywhite9676
Yes! That would be a way to break the fourth wall
damn
"Listen, Alice..." "Herbert..." 'Herbert' - my favorite part :)
Just like:
"But mother..."
"Father! i'm father."
"But father."
Every time I see Justin Herbert, I pronounce it like he says to his dad “Erbert”
"She's beautiful,she's rich,she's got huge.....
tracts of land!"
-You are already beeing missed
Terry: what the curtains ?
-No not the curtains. YOU 😭
Sadly the last curtain has fallen for Terry. He really will be missed (No, not the curtain).
i like that look eric idle was doing when he is smiling as the prince is writing a note and shoot it out of the window with an bow and arrow
Cobax hahaha that's the best
1:54 to 3:32. One continuous shot, no cuts or edits. Man, they were SO talented and funny. It just doesn't get any better than that!
"When I first came here, this was all swamp. Everyone said I was daft to build a castle on a swamp, but I built in all the same, just to show them. It sank into the swamp. So I built a second one. That sank into the swamp. So I built a third. That burned down, fell over, then sank into the swamp. But the fourth one stayed up. And that's what you're going to get, Lad, the strongest castle in all of England."
Man, that third one had bad luck.
"But I don't want land."
"Listen, we live in a bloody swamp; we need all the land we can get!"
ackbarfan5556 I just love it if you understand that the 4th castle only stayed up because the other 3 were supporting it from beneath XD
SacridFire That's brilliant. Good thinking man!
I wonder if that was the inspiration for the Babylon stations in Babylon 5!
But I'd rather, rather, just sing...🎵@@Sindraug25
Honestly the best bit here is "Some day lad this'll all be yours." - "What the Curtains?"
"No, not the curtains, lad!"
I always laugh at this part, freakin brilliant.
Guards scene - one take. Unbelievable when you consider how iconic a scene it is!
I use this joke with my two sons. They will ask me to do something but I twist the directions around and around until they walk away in frustration.
Supreme parent joke
Ha, I think all dads do that. (Or maybe it's just all dads who grew up watching Python.)
Wait till they put you in the nursing home then they will have the last laugh!!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
"What the curtains..?" this whole scene hits every note, pitch perfect! This movie is Monty Python and all of British Comedy at it's best.
British humor at its absolute supreme indeed, MP will always be the best. Even after 40 years their stuff is still so much fresher and funnier than anything that calls itself comedy today.
I swear my 13yr old is a daft as those guards.
+GasCityGuy my 14 yr. old son is definitely as daft as those guards...!
aren't all 13 year olds? ;)
Comedy has never got any better than this!
British humor at its absolute best, they just don't do quality comedy like this anymore.
“I thought you meant him! You know, it seemed a bit daft to me I was to guard him when he’s a guard!”. That’s my favourite bit, lots thanks to Idle’s delivery. His facial expression afterwards is also so funny, like he’s about to laugh at his own comment. It is indeed very silly to imagine that guard guarding the room from the other guard.
"Listen, Alice!" "Herbert."
My favourite part is 2:58 where Palin's skulking in the shadows : ’And, er, make sure he doesn't leave'. It's as if he knows that nothing he's said's been understood but he's tried to put his own uneasy mind at rest.
Jones is so good in this scene that it's easy to forget that Palin killed too.
Well said, every human with a brain has had that massive lack of faith in his fellow man-and boy-gut feelings.
“But father...” that alone is enough to get me going 🤣😂🤣🤣😂🤣😂- i think his petulant tone as a spoiled prince is just perfect 😂
I have a friend who's nerdy and quite busty.
We got her a t-shirt that said "Huge Tracts of Land"
My dreams is to put my flag between two huge tracts of land
+ElTioboi You got a lot of ground to cover.
ElTioboi 😐
My dream is to place my cannon in the gorge which lies south of those tracts of land.
he protecc
he attack
but most importantly, he abacc
Every time someone hiccups I always say "Oh go get a glass of water" in a British accent.
No such thing as a British accent; there are hundreds of different ones. That particular one is a South Yorkshire one as Michael is originally from Sheffield.
You're welcome ;o)
King: One day all this will be yours
Prince: The curtains?
King: No not the curtains
😂😂🤣🤣
"Oh go and get a glass of water"
Unintentional bit of gold in the writing; he FINALLY gets the guards to do their job and then tells the hiccuping one to get a glass of water, which would require him to leave the room.
I never thought of that, and IT IS hilarious. 😂 Kudos.
I’m so glad my dad introduced me to this. I can’t stop watching it now 😂🤣
That’s the best thing you cannot stop watching 😂😂😂 they were real GENIUSES !
When I watched first time I was just a kid and instantly I was so hooked up ! Since now.
When I have a rough time I just watch Monty Python. And I still fall from the couch laughing. This will never get old.
RIP terry jones. We will miss you. It feels strange that a man with such great talent has passed away
He left us? But he wasn't supposed to leave the room!
Favorite part: "Oh, quite clear! No problems." Promptly follow the king as he leaves the room.
The REAL Game of Thrones.
The best Comedy of all time and directed by Terry Jones. I laugh every time I see this scene and I have seen it several times over. Thanks for everything - just brilliant comedy. RIP.
Terry Jones has left the room now, sadly.
- "What?!"
- "Make sure he doesn't leave"
- "The Prince!?"
This part will never stop making me laugh...
seemed a bit daft guarding him when he's a guard
I visited Doune Castle 2 years ago and I have been a huge fan of Monty Python for some 40 odd years now. Hearing that line "What the curtains?" just had me in tears of laughter though I'd heard it many, many times. I can only say that Terry Jones was one of the few who could have you crawling on the floor, giggling like mad, because he was so funny (and silly, of course!).
I've lost one of my heroes today but I'll always look on the bright side of life !
R.I.P Terry and thanks for all the laughs!
Denis BEGUIER We’ll all miss Terry. He was one of a kind. A brilliant director and actor. Prince Herbert is in my opinion, his best role!
RIP Terry Jones. My dad and I use the quote "But I don't want any of that I'd rather..sing" when asking each other for virtually anything! Gone but certainly not forgotten!
"But father...."
"SHUT YA NOISE, YOU!!"
@@downtoearthx9393 and no singing!
I feel like this is about Terry Jones' penchant for turning everything he directs into a musical.
He got away with Meaning of life
Sadly Terry Jones has left us now, although he was supposed to stay in the room.
@@torstenscholz6243 Don't worry. He's gone to meet Dr. Chapman
"but the fourth one...that stayed up!" 🤣
But I don't want that, I'd rather, rather, just and sing...🎵
She's beautiful, she's rich, she's got huuuge....tracks of land!
Blahblahblah Blah my favorite part lol
When you describe your gf to your folks XD
"I'd rather. Just. Sing..." LoL
Stop that! Stop that! You're not going to be doing any singing while I'm here!
i'm from morocco and i watched this movie for the first time in italy in the early 80's with some friends from Usa.
the life of brian and this movie are my favorite comedy movies
RIP Terry Jones...a very underrated comedic genius.
It seems that those on the public payroll haven't changed a bit in over 600 years.
This is what it's like teaching ITT students.
Why bother, just because you're payed for it? Win the lottery or something, you twit.
Just tell them to ask others "Have you tried turning your computer off and on again?"
We're coming with you.
No no I want you to stay here and make sure he doesn't leave
@@ddthewolf Who, the other guard?
This film is a timeless masterpiece.
"GUARDS!! make sure the prince doesn't leave the room until I come and get him"
"Right, he's not to leave the room even if you come and get him..."

"Where are you going? We're coming with you!....No no, I want you to stay here AND MAKE SURE E DOESN'T LEAVE!"

I want the girl I marry to have a certain special something...🎵
That guard is totally me at every job I've worked...
“We’re coming with you”
The scene made as a gift to employers and managers everywhere for all time.
RIP Terry Jones, you finally got your curtains.
He has left us? I told the guards that he mustn't leave the room!
"So I built the third one. That burned down, fell over and then sank into the swamp." lol
I love how patient he remains when explaining the situation over and over again. I think the easy comedic move would to make him get really mad and storm off but his patience and extra care to explain the most basic task makes it so much funnier.
1:02 That's how I act in front of a musical xD
YOU FELL OUT OF THE TALL TOWER YOU CREEP. 😂
Yes but I was saved at the last second
How?
Well, I'll tell you...🎵
I mean.... after 3 god damn castles falling into the swamp, I would imagine the building ground would be nothing BUT bricks haha and it could never sink again. My God this scene is incredible.... doing this in one single take is just wow...... the Kings frustration and the guards lack of understanding.... this is something of the best I've ever seen
*Starts breaking into song* STOP THAT, STOP THAT, you're not goin' into a song while I'm 'ere!
She's got huuuuuge.........tracts of land. Gets me every time.
The part that cracks me up most is when Palin says "we live in a bloody swamp. We need all the land we can get."
Mother!... Father Father...
Watching this video makes me want to.....sing.
stop that stop that!
derth4
lol. I watch this movie at least once a month.
I should do that too.
derth4 you're not going into a song while I'm here
AND NO SINGING
Prince Herbert marrying Princess Lucky because of 'huge tracts of land' - this is an accurate description of how the Kingdom of England came into existence. Probably written by Terry Jones, who is an expert in mediaeval history.
+Elitist20 John Cleese says this bit was by Michael Palin.
+Lytrigian Palin and Jones often worked together (as did Cleese and Graham Chapman) while Eric Idle and Terry Gilliam did their bits on their own. P and J had already been a team on "The Complete and Utter History of Britain", and later did "Ripping Yarns", which also have historical settings. So maybe Palin "imbibed" it from Jones!
Cleese said you could tell who wrote what: "most of the sketches with the *heavy* abuse in them were Graham's and mine; any sketch that started with a slow pan across countryside and impressive music was Mike and Terry's; and anything that got utterly involved with words and disappeared up any personal orifice was Eric's." (From Fringe to Flying Circus, Roger Wilmut, 1980)
+Lytrigian Cleese says the guards not understanding part was written by Palin. The Prince Herbert stuff more generally was written by Jones and Palin.
Either that, or he was going to say she got big boobs, but corrected himself by saying tracks of lands.
But, not that you mention it, probably how the kingdom of England came to be.
The way Herbert says "I know" after his father finishes by saying she's got huge tracts of land.....just gets me everytime. It's a little thing but still funny.
Quintessential Python silliness.
Gag after gag after gag
“The curtains?” 😂
It’s fun to see Terry J play the more demure character & Michael the more brusk one, it seems a sort-of inversion of at least my memory of their roles in Flying Circus.
"but mother"
"father, I'm father"
xD
“What? The curtains?” 😂
I was a teenager when this came out. Not surprisingly “huge tracts of land” was a very popular phrase among by peers
My dad always seemed to use that joke too lol (I miss him 😔)
Never gets old. Pure genius scene. Love it.
I wish they still made movies like this.... I cannot even remember the last time i seen a good movie it was so long ago.
This is one of the scenes that has lived rent free in my head since watching it as a child decades ago.
Bloody hell, Terry Jones was a human chameleon! I've only just NOW found out it was him playing the prince.
Lots of things have made me laugh but so few have to the point where I couldn't breathe. The first time I saw this and the guards followed him out of the room, I thought I was going to suffocate.
My favourite scene in the WHOLE movie😂
Agree. Unbelievable!
dude lmaoooo, the most deliciously funny little thing in this scene is when hes about to leave then hesitates a little "....and make sure he doesnt leave...." Then has to come back in because they obviously still dont get it HAHAHA that part fucking kills me
RIP Terry Jones!!! You will he missed! Sing away in heaven!
Father: Make sure he doesn't leave the room.
Guard #1: So, only if he asks nicely.
Father: No! Don't let him leave at all!
"Where are you going? "We're following you!"

"You're marrying Princess Lookee so you better get used to the idea."

And that ladies and gentlemen, is true comedic genius.
I`m sort of thinking of this in the middle of a `Game of Thrones` episode.
Somehow it sort of works!
Robert Sneddon Dave and Dan say they always feel they’re one step away from a scene becoming Monty Python.
I feel like the King sometimes at work trying to explain what to do.
