Subj : What is Brians mother afraid of? and Day of the Doom To : All From : Stig Carlsson Date : Thu Apr 10 2008 03:56 am From: "Stig Carlsson" In the start of "Life of Brian" where Brians mother gets a visit from the wise men and receives the gifts from them she does not like the myrrh (sp?). She seems to confuse it with some animal. Since english is not my native language I do not understand it. Please explain it someone. I have seen on TV, some years back, a sketch where a group of people, among them John Cleese and Marty Feldman are sitting on a mountain side or in a cave waiting for the doom. It will come in just a few minutes and John Cleese is telling everyone how terrible it will be with fire and frogs raining etc. They count down 5,4,3,2,1,0 and.......................... nothing happens. They look around a little and John says "Ok, same time next week". Where does this come from? I have checked the 1948 show but it is not on the CD´s.
