I just read a piece in a newspaper about the funeral service for the Pyton who
died (I forgot his name, Chapman?). The eulogy given by John Cleese was a
variation of the parrot sketch, 'he is not dead he is sleeping, he is
an ex-python' etc...

I thought it most appropriate.

CAUTION!! PROFANITY WARNING!! RUDE WORDS FOLLOW>>>!!!

Chapman's memorial service was televised a few years ago (or at least bits of
it), and I think this is where JC did the bit you mention. The part that
really sticks in my mind was when he (JC) said: "Graham (Chapman)'s writing
allowed me to be the first person to say "SH*T" on the BBC; I would therefore
like to be the first person to say "F*CK" at a British memorial
service...."
