I seem to remember the Pythons on their reunion tour (particularly [[Eric_Idle#Monty_Python_.281969.E2.80.931983.29|Eric Idle]]), talking about the 'German' Python series. Statements like " Ve haff no sense of humour and ve vould like you to help us get one" and them also talking about "Writing the scripts, getting them translated into German and then having to learn them phonetically".

:I don't know about the latter, but the former was true only of the first episode of the pair. Michael Palin says that to this day, he can still sing "das Holzfäller-Lied" in German, having had to learn it phonetically. --[[User:JohnDBuell|JohnDBuell]] 22:30, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
::Your first statement holds merit if you've seen the [[Monty_Python_Live_at_Aspen|Live in Aspen]] special, except Idle didn't apply a German accent when making that statement on that show (Aspen). They did, however, break into German language to answer host [[Robert Klein]]'s question before Idle goes into detail and makes said statement.<BR>
