Monty Python - Four Yorkshiremen

The Four Yorkshiremen skit from Live at Hollywood Bowl

I only upload these videos because i'm tired of all the shitty quality ones on youtube.

"I had to get up every morning at 10:30 at night half an hour before I went to bed..."

These blokes had it easy. When I was a young lad, we had to walk naked seven miles to and from school in the freezing cold (regardless of the season), all the while being harrassed by fire-breathing dragons. After school, we had to toil in the tarpits (still naked), where we raked the boiling tar from one side of the pits to the other for no discernible reason, whilst being lashed by cackling demons wielding flame-tipped whips. When we got home, our dad would flay the skin from our bodies and decapitate us. And we were grateful.

When Palin says "Ooh, we used to dream of a corridor!" a) he delivers it perfectly, and b) as an actual Yorkshireman he gets it :)

I was in the co op today getting some milk and the two people behind the counter referenced this and three more people joined in it was a mad time, , between them they basically had the whole sketch down

As soon as Eric Idle says "RIGHT" you know what's coming.

Many people say the parrot sketch is the best one but I say this is, not only the best Monty Python sketch but the best ever on TV.

Sucking tea out of a damp cloth? LUXURY!
There were 5020 of us and we had to share an old dirty sock that had been held over some steam for our breakfast once every 2 weeks before we had to work 26 hours a day down pit

this is exactly what people from yorkshire talk like

Rest in peace Terry Jones Out of the door. Line on the right. One coffin each. Next!

RIP Terry Jones. He's not the messiah . He's just a very naughty boy.!

There is a Cheese Shop in Kimberly, BC. The owner didn't have any Venezuelan Beaver Cheese. But she did the whole routine with me. Worth the visit!

I'm a yorkshireman and these guys were spot on on! (Besides the accents) these lads were lucky to sit on chairs I tell thee n t'old t'internet! Were a thing I could only dream of!

[hawkeyeted]

Instant classic the minute it was performed.

I’m a 54 yr old Yorkshireman and everywhere I go outside Yorkshire people ask me to recite this sketch in my native tongue and also sing the Yorkshire national anthem “ Ilkley Moor baht at “
My Gran used to say “There are only 2 types of people in this world lad, people that were born in Yorkshire and people that wish they ad been”
She played this sketch to me tons of times when I were a lad
I miss her loads but whenever I see this I say it out loud and think of my old gran and how she used to cry laughing at it
This has to be the funniest sketch ever made

These Monty Python "funny men" don't know what hard is. When we was young lads growing up in rural Australia in the 70s we didn't have fancy computers - we had to use a kangaroo for a toilet and use rusty barbed-wire and a box of old matches to wipe our bums with.

"We were evicted from our hole in the ground; we had to go and live in a lake!"

[missmr]

My English ancestry is entirely from Yorkshire; I like to think of them sitting around like this telling each other how bad they had it.

[theguywhomakesthetrees]

"Had to get up in the morning at 10pm an hour before I went to bed, and go work a 29 hour shift" I fuckin feel that...

[SunBunz]

“We were evicted from out hole in the ground. We had to go live in a LAKE!” 😂

Reminds me of some NA meetings where people are supposed to open up about their problems but instead they stooped into a not-so-subtle competition over who did the most drugs and who had the shittiest life experiences.
