Monty Python and the Holy Grail

Fifty years ago this month the Holy Grail hit theatres thanks to the financial backing of Pink Floyd, Led Zepplin, Jethro Tull and others, who saw it as a good tax write-off, when studios refused to fund it. It has consistantly been in the top 10 rankings of best comedy films of all time. It was the basis for the stage musical Spamalot.

Reading of the Book of Armaments, Chapter 2, Verses 9 to 21
“First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin. Then shalt thou count to three, no more no less. Three shalt be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shalt be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thou foe, who being naughty in my sight, shall snuff it.”

When i was in engineering we had a guy who would take the stance of holding the reigns and trotting around the workshop when he did his rounds, always brought a smile to us :) Didn't have a serf with coconuts though....
 
If you have never seen Spamalot (Holy Grail musical) you have missed a pretty good show.
