Slightly Adequate Relatively Unknown Pythony Factoids #22 - Carol Cleveland on working with the Pythons, part 1:
When I first joined them, I didn’t honestly quite know what to make of it to begin with. I remember the first two or three days of rehearsals thinking, ‘I don’t know if this is going to take-off’, because they were sort of all over the place. It was fairly manic.
We didn’t actually do a lot of rehearsal. If anything, it was under-rehearsed to keep it fresh and fun. … Once they knew exactly what they were doing, we’d just stop rehearsing and the rest of the time was mucking about. Once we’d done our little bit of rehearsal we’d go, ‘Right, that’s good now, we don’t want to sort of louse it up’, we’d do something like play football. So all the furniture would be moved aside and we set up a couple of goals at each end and we’d have a match. I was always a goalie! When we were in the BBC rehearsal rooms, all the doors had little peek-through windows, and it was wonderful - as people passed by, you’d see them come back and do a double-take, and not know what to make of it. They thought we were rehearsing a football sketch that went on day after day after day.

I was sitting on a park bench just now and put my coat down. When I picked it up again, I found my wallet was gone and fifteen pounds had been stolen.
