Monty Python's Flying Circus

Wolfgang A. Mozart emcees a talent contest won by Genghis Khan; a professor gives Italian lessons to Italian students; the funniest joke in the world becomes a weapon of war.

A shepherd muses about sheep nesting in trees; the commercial viability of ovine aviation; profiles of men who lead double lives as mice; a playwright clashes with his coal-miner son; a wrestling match over the existence of God.

A satirical study of trees. Also: Cardinal Richelieu testifies in traffic court; a chain of restaurant managers handles a customer's complaint; a woman collects milkmen.

A change from street clothes to swim trunks turns into a burlesque act; a karate class exercises defense tactics against fresh fruit; a man tries to buy a book about false teeth.

The Confuse-a-Cat service for lethargic feline pets; interviews with a lizard, a duck, a cat and a man in the street; an offbeat interview for a management-training course.

Sketches include: a German composer with an extraordinarily long name; crooks plan an elaborate scheme to buy a watch; a chocolate-company owner markets "Crunchy Frog."
