    I suppose it's a good thing it didn't lose to a cartoon, but...i don't know, everything i've seen of Monty Python, including the Dead Parrot and argument sketches, I never found it as funny as i expected. I think Britain has made much funnier shows over the years that have stood the test of time better. Like the Day Today: that's over 15 years old, and yet it's random version of the news still seems as relevant and hilarious now as it did back then. Which is a good thing for me, as i was too young to enjoy it at the time! Or Not the 9 O'Clock News: again, about 30 years old, and yet there's plenty of sketches I found funny. I suppose in a 60s round, Python is one of the best shows to lose to, but I think it too easily overshadows a number of superior British programmes too much of the time for me to fully enjoy it.
    Never be cruel and never be cowardly. And if you ever are, always make amends.

    You are a walking talking Doctor Who encyclopedia to me.

    Well that would have been terrible, to have Dr who lose to a cartoon, it was bad enough seeing SG1 voted out over a cartoon, i mean i like cartoon s and all that but are they really the best show of all time?

    **ok back to the subject**

    Sob sob
