The Meaning of Life - and a comment for Charmaine

This weekend I finally finished my Monty Python DVD collection with their movie The Meaning of Life.
I would like to make some comments about it.
1) For those cartoonist friends of mine who love pirates and have been living in a pond and have never seen the movie, Terry Gilliam directed a short film that preceeds (and then attacks) the main movie.
The movie is called The Crimson Permanent Assurance and is about an old accounting firm who set their building to sail and attack big business.
The crew of the CPA (a joke I have only just understood now that I've typed it out) are all very old men, who arm themselves with makeshift pirate gear - blades from an overhead fan, the fashion a dagger by attaching a receipt spike to a stamp. Their cannons are filing cabinets that fire drawers.
All lovely stuff.
Go watch it if you haven't seen it.
2) All of the Pythons put in stellar performances - Graham Chapman is especially good. Eric Idle does a lovely job in a scene where he plays a silly American woman. Michael Palin plays a range of silly characters in a very silly and entertaining way.
3) In one scene Terry Gilliam plays a Bo Peep character in a slightly husky transvetitey kind of voice. I mention this only because he looks and sounds remarkably like Kirsty Allie. I live in hope that one day he hears of this comment and is appropriately amused.

Comment for Charmaine:
I have a friend from my days at Southern Cross called Jason Blundell, or Airbags as we all know him (he crashed 3 cars in as many weeks when he first started).
I noted once over dinner that he has the kind of fresh faced look that would be perfect if you needed to cast someone in a movie about either of the world wars.
My friend Alex Harris backed this up by suggesting that Bags looked like the entire cast of the Sullivans, which is the comment I figured you'd enjoy.
