I think the first picture is awesome, he reminds me of that Sean Penn character in the film Carlitos Way. A seventies dandy and bad boy.

Those specific orange chairs, and ones quite like it that were designed by certain artists from the fifties and sixties can exchange hands for upwards of 5,000 Euros here in the Hague. Seriously.

I'd pay them 5,000 Euros to take them away. Yuk Cripes.Ugh. people pretend to like those things as they used to pretend to like Monty Python. They are like Van Goghs = 50 million a piece for "throwing a paint pot in the public's face", as Ruskin said (rather more unfairly) of Whistler. Van Gogh was a mentally defective twat.

I def like the first photo. I have pictures from those days which are identical--not sure I could willingly do it again.

The MP team were a bunch of total Van Gogh-esq twats - but, unlike poor old VG (that's 'Van Goh' to some of you) they didn't have to await a posthumous popularity as a result of the machinations of art-world conmen.
I mean, after even deep frying them, I can definitely say that frogs are never crunchy.

I agree with one thing, Monty Python is not funny and was and remains a perfect example of the emperor's news clothes.

Funny you should say that, I loved them and I never tire of watching the reruns. I don't find many things funny.

EEEE By Gum: Benny Hill; The Two Ronnies; Dave Allen; Morecambe & Wise; Tommy Cooper; Jimmy Durante; the Marx Bros; Dorothy Parker; Elaine Stritch - er - many more: they're funny; Monty Python "deceived a generation" and people felt peer group pressure to like them..

Could not stand Benny Hill. Always thought he was a complete waste of time--I know, not an opinion shared by many. I would say yours is an apt description for BH.

No you just don't like them. Many others do, including me.

Re: How much one has to pay to achieve such a super look?
I like MP too and I'm not of the generation you're talking about.
Theres was a comedy I think that polarized people and still does. You tend to find people who don't like MP like Benny Hill. No coincidence really.
Monty Python had both brains and balls and were self confident enough to cover it up with a mask of silliness.

Cleese was funny in Fawlty Towers (but hardly alone) and in A Fish Called Wanda - but the rest of the MP team were pretentious prats. And - er - The Goons - more total twats. Happy Crunchy Frog Day, Kingstonian - just remember not to ingest the brightly coloured ones! BUURP!
