ARTHUR: I am Arthur, King of the Britons.<br>
WOMAN: King of the who?<br>
ARTHUR: The Britons.<br>
WOMAN: Who are the Britons?<br>
ARTHUR: Well, we all are. We are all Britons, and I am your king.<br>
WOMAN: I didn't know we had a king. I thought we were an autonomous collective.<br>

OK, OK, the correct text, please!!<br>
That should be:<br>
<br>
[howl]<br>
[clop clop clop]<br>
Who's that, then?<br>
CART MASTER: I dunno. Must be a king.<br>
CUSTOMER: Why?<br>
CART MASTER: He hasn't got [shi*t] all over him.<br>
<br>
Help! I'm being repressed! Can't write the s-word here...<br>

Well, Jasper, I have 30-odd pages of text..<br>
Should you happen to want this thread closed for reasons of taking up to much server space , I can provide you with the closing scene of the police arresting the survivors and dispersing the crowd of re-enactors.<br>
<br>
Very apt, I maight add.<br>

Ave Valerius:<br>
<br>
That closing scene is too mild for my taste; I vote for the sequence where A Famous Historian has a rather unfortunate encounter with a charging knight...<br>

Aha, Sir has a good taste. Suits you Sir, suits you...<br>
<img src="http://www.dailyllama.com/news/1996/images/ccg_historian.gif" style="border:0;"/><br>
HISTORIAN: Defeat at the castle seems to have utterly disheartened King Arthur. The ferocity of the French taunting took him completely by surprise,<br>
and Arthur became convinced that a new strategy was required if the quest for the Holy Grail were to be brought to a successful conclusion. Arthur,<br>
having consulted his closest knights, decided that they should separate and search for the Grail individually.<br>
[clop clop clop]<br>
Now, this is what they did: Launcelot--<br>
KNIGHT: Aaaah!<br>
[slash]<br>
[KNIGHT kills HISTORIAN]<br>
HISTORIAN'S WIFE: Frank!<br>

Arthur: "We have ridden since the snows of winter coyevred this land..."<br>
Knight: "No, you didn't. You've got two halves of a cocoanut and you're banging them together"<br>

KNIGHTS: [singing]<br>
We're Knights of the Round Table.<br>
We dance whene'er we're able.<br>
We do routines and chorus scenes<br>
With footwork impeccable.<br>
We dine well here in Camelot.<br>
We eat ham and jam and spam a lot.<br>
<br>
[dancing]<br>
We're Knights of the Round Table.<br>
Our shows are formidable,<br>
But many times we're given rhymes<br>
That are quite unsingable.<br>
We're opera mad in Camelot.<br>
We sing from the diaphragm a lot.<br>
<br>
[in dungeon]<br>
PRISONER: [clap clap clap clap]<br>
[in medieval hall]<br>
KNIGHTS: [tap-dancing]<br>
In war we're tough and able,<br>
Quite indefatigable.<br>
Between our quests we sequin vests and impersonate Clark Gable.<br>
It's a busy life in Camelot.<br>
