Pssh! Paradise! I'd get beaten with a cricket bat made out of twenty other cricket bats taped together after working at mill for five hundred and twenty seven years a day, using Wilford Brimley's moustache as toilet paper, eating up scraped together bits of my mother's leg shavings, only to come home and get ritualistically executed by my dad and five New Guinea tribesmen. And that was for Holidays!

Wasn't Cleese also one of the writers? I thought I read that...

if anyone's interested in seeing four 16-year-old girls try this sketch, do a search on "the four ladies". They changed the text a bit to make it more, um, understandable to a midwest audience at a high school variety show.

No, a lot of people think this is a Monty Python sketch but it isn't. There's a documentary where Tim Brooke Taylor talks about writing this.

It says "written and performed by..." But anyway this refers to the whole program - "At Last, The 1948 Show". My understanding is that this particular sketch was written by Marty Feldman and Tim Brooke-Taylor.
