Last night I met the man that BiggusDickus from The Life of Brian was based on.
He was at uni with Cleese and Chapman, is now a teacher (all his pupils and fellow staff know about his film connection - not sure if he does) and still has a great lisp.
If you don't understand the reference, drink a lot of Guinness, or eat a lot of curry (of course, you could just look incontinence up in the dictionary, but the other methods are more fun!).
Palin’s stumbling over mispronounced R’s in words like 'spirit', Cleese only getting through (sorry, thwough) to him by mimicking his phrasing of throw him to the floor, and, finally, the onslaught of joke names which aren't that funny to Palin.
As the guards around him suppress smiles from Palin's slow, methodical pronunciations of BiggusDickus, they gradually fail the test and explode into bursts of laughter.
