English I would probably give the fifth star to the fifth episode for Graham Chapman's response to the question he received in the final of the competition for the briefest Proust: "What are your other interests besides summarizing Proust?" "Strangling animals, golf, and masturbation." Fortunately, besides Proust, other excellent sketches appeared, in which a hairdressing expedition conquered Everest, I visited the Language Laboratory and a travel agency, where Eric Idle shone, and in the end, Anne Elk introduced me to her new theory about brontosaurs.
