Python skit won over guards in Venezuela
COMEDY great Michael Palin managed to wriggle out of a fishy situation thanks to a classic Monty Python sketch.
The 82-year-old was held at gunpoint by the Venezuelan intelligence service while filming a travel show for Channel 5.
But the guards let him go when they watched a video of the comedy troupe's Fish Slapping Dance sketch from 1971.
And the sight of John Cleese and Michael whacking each other with pilchards and trout secured the crew's freedom.
