mentioned on a swedish comunity that today is johns birthday. that was a conversation-starter between me and a guy in hes 40s whos a big python-fan as well. for some reason we started talking about the german episodes and he has them, and since he lives about 1 hour with bus from where I live we decided that I am gonna get to borrow hes vhs-tapes with the german episodes and copy them to dvd both for myself and for him. :) it will probobly not be before christmas, but still, have been looking for those for since I first heard abouth them 10 years ago. :)
(the picture is from the german version of lumberjack song)
that made my day! :D

marga: yesterday night i watched the episode! what it amazed most me was that they were speaking perfect german! (at last it didn't sound dubbed in a studio)
MontyMaria: Avundsjuk! Jag vill också ha dom tyska avsnitten ;)
mrsCutout: Good for you!!!!The German episode is just amazing!I realy liked the sketch with albreht durer!!!I you belive it i was looking for the meaning of life on a dvd club and they didn't have it...instead they had the german episode so i asked them to copy it for me!!This version also includes 20 years of MP with steve martin.
aaaah, I have the 20 years of mp, recorded it from tv 10 years ago when they had this big special. but apart from the lumberjack song I havent seen anything from the german ones
Well you should see it it's quite funny!20 years was a hilarious moment with these great comediens from different cultures meeting but i was sad when i saw graham looking so bad!:(
acctually I dont really like steve martin. dont know why, Ive never liked him. :/ and yeah, poor graham. it was just weeks before he died.
Well that doesn't matter!He likes the pythons though so...!It seems to me that grahams hair are darker and more brown there!Still it could be my imagination! R.I.P.He would have loved the reunion
I dont know if grays hair ooked darker there, I think its sort of an illusion because he was so much paler than you are used to seeing him. and he was so thin at the end too. :( that poor poor man. the world is just not quite the same when someone like that dies. and even if its been 20 years, I can still start to cry when I hear the other boys talking about him and his death.
Oh yeas that's moving!You know "live at aspen"was the secon python relevant thing i saw and then i found out graham had passed!I was shocked!I googled and i learned all about it and when i saw live at aspen again i realy cried!it was so sad...*sigh*
aspen, that was the 1 hour interwiev when gilliam kicked over the urn, right? well, I dont remember if that was when I first heard about his death. I became a fan in 92, give or take a year, and I think I at least had noticed that graham had sort of... how shall I put it... I heard about projects of the other members now and then, but never anything about what he was up too. so I dont remember when I first heard about it, but I _think_ I knew before that one.
