Yes, it sure looks like John Lennon.. it’s just that at that time John had hair down to his shoulders and a beard xD. It sure does look like him in the mid-sixties, though.
Re Eric:
“Smith” is Ian Smith, the white Rhodesian PM who broke completely from the UK in 1965 and took over the colony. There was civil war when this was sketch was taped in 1972. It was a long and bloody story. Too long to tell here. Ian Smith wasn’t a fan of black nationalists, let’s put it that way.
Phonetically, Eric says:
Bleck people. Bleck people. Rhodesian. Kill the blecks. Kill the blecks. Rhodesian. Smith. Smith. Kill the blecks within the five principles.

Chapman had the craziest eyes I’ve ever seen, his expressions were punchlines unto themselves.

Eric idle, Terry Jones, and Michael Palin have headphones on. The rest, I believe, are singers. I didn’t see Terry Gilliam.

It’s possible actually…
October 27th, 2009 at 12:47 am
Oh wow. I never would have caught that unless I was listening to it.
October 28th, 2009 at 3:05 am
He certainly does, at least from that angle. Good catch.
