One of my ex wives died—did you know that—it was very sad, because it was the wrong one.

The wit from those two is always absolutely effortless. Every line from this entire 4 minute clip is quotable.

This joke got glossed over but I thought was a hilarious quip:

...'and then they grow up like their mothers'

'and that's just the boy'

I love John Cleese a lot

At 52 seconds, I think he says "You're virtually a Muslim" then looks off screen and jumps. I wonder what happened there.

"I'm going to talk to these two during the break and they're going to behave when we return..."
