Monty Python gets the Internet (and may make some scratch off it, too)
Check out the moment when the members of Monty Python realize they'll be no charge for viewing their comedy clips on-line; it's at the 1:30 mark.
The Monty Python Youtube Channel has a number of high-quality scenes from Holy Grail, Life of Brian and The Meaning if Life, as well as their TV show, Monty Python's Flying Circus.
"The Argument Clinic" is a good place to start, "You snotty faced heap of parrot droppings! You vacuous, coffee-nosed malodorous pervert! ... Oh, I'm sorry, this is Abuse; you want 12A next door."
Then there's the stoning business from Life of Brian, the tale of the boy born in the manger next to Jesus.
Or the French taunter from Holy Grail.
It's a treasure trove of British Comedy, although it's not for everyone; my mother never cracked a smile at the Pythons' antics, even as her teenage son howled at the screen in paroxysms of laughter.

I think you have to display homosexual tendencies to enjoy British humor. Maybe its meant to be watched while wearing panties and silk stockings.
I hate the English and everything about those high browed snobs.
