* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cWDdd5KKhts The Cheese Shop Sketch]] is effectively the second coming of the Dead Parrot Sketch, with Michael Palin as a shopkeeper going to increasing lengths to pull the wool over the eyes of a customer played by John Cleese - despite going through dozens and dozens of varieties of cheese, the customer is unable to name a single one that the shop actually has in stock. When the shopkeeper finally admits he has no cheese at all and has been wasting the customer's time, the customer pulls out a gun and shoots him dead, puts on a cowboy hat, and rides off into the sunset. While the subtle absurdism of the sketch is hilarious enough on its own (it never occurs to the customer to just ''ask'' if the shop has any cheese until he's already run through dozens of varieties, and the shopkeeper inexplicably refuses to just admit that he doesn't have any until the customer asks him point-blank), the performances really sell it: it's absolutely hysterical to see Cleese's character (a cheery UpperClassTwit who uses flowery speech) gradually get more annoyed until he descends into a murderous rage, while Palin's character seemingly takes more and more sadistic glee in wasting his time.

** In a characteristic bit of Pythonesque absurdity: Cleese's character in the sketch is portrayed as a cheery, over-educated UpperClassTwit who [[SesquipedalianLoquaciousness uses flowery speech]], which the BookDumb shopkeeper struggles to understand. That's not the funny part, though: the funny part is that whenever the shopkeeper asks him to clarify himself, he doesn't just use simpler words--he repeats himself in a comically over-the-top Yorkshire accent. It's so inexplicable and stupid that it's ''hilarious''.

** At one point, the shopkeeper makes a [[BlatantLies hilariously flimsy]] attempt to cover up the fact that he doesn't have any cheese by claiming that he has Camembert in stock, but attempts to dissuade the customer from ordering it by claiming that it's too runny to eat. It doesn't work.

'''Customer:''' You do! Excellent.\\
'''Shopkeeper:''' It's, uh...a bit runny, sir.\\
'''Customer:''' Oh, I ''like'' it runny!\\
'''Shopkeeper:''' ...Well as a matter of fact, it's ''very'' runny!\\
'''Customer:''' No matter, no matter! Hand over ''la fromage de la belle France qui s'appelle Camembert, s'il vous plait''!\\
'''Shopkeeper:''' ...I think it's runnier than you like it, sir!\\
'''Customer:''' ''(suddenly getting angry)'' I don't care ''how'' excrementally runny it is. Hand it over with all speed!\\
'''Shopkeeper:''' Yes, sir!\\
''(the shopkeeper pretends to look in the cupboard, and immediately looks back up)''\\
'''Shopkeeper:''' Oh... The cat's eaten it.\\
