Monty Python's Fliegender Zirkus - Lost Sketches

Lost Sketches

Several behind-the-scenes photos from the specials' production were published in the group's autobiography, some of which were from sketches cut from the specials:

  • A version of the "Marriage Guidance Counsellor" sketch.
  • A sketch involving a flute player (Graham Chapman) in front of a German sign.
  • A version of the "Sir Edward Ross" sketch
  • An alternate ending to the first special, in which two stage hands are carrying a giant sign that says ENDE off a huge field. Behind the sign is Terry Jones' singer character from the Albrecht Dürer sketch.

Famous quotes containing the words lost and/or sketches:

    A woman hostage
    will call a young thief “hero”
    and look at him with love,
    even if she’s lost her mind with grief
    because her family
    has been slaughtered.
    As far as virtues go,
    who can hold a grudge?
    Hla Stavhana (c. 50 A.D.)

    Monday’s child is fair in face,
    Tuesday’s child is full of grace,
    Wednesday’s child is full of woe,
    Thursday’s child has far to go,
    Friday’s child is loving and giving,
    Saturday’s child works hard for its living;
    And a child that is born on a Christmas day,
    Is fair and wise, good and gay.
