How robots could end animal captivity in zoos & marine parks

noims says...

This was part of the plot of the John Cleese film Fierce Creatures. Pandas are so shy the zoo replaced it with a far cheaper animatronic because no one would notice the difference.

Later in the film they show the pandas with an 'out of order' sign in front of the enclosure.

Life imitates art.

Who steals a cheese grater?

jokes and metaphors in MONTY PYTHON AND THE HOLY GRAIL

noims says...

This is Monty Python we're talking about. The fans overthink everything. We put the 'anal' into over-analysis.

Case in point, here are a few things that may or may not be relevant that he missed:
1) We see Bedevere tying coconuts to birds' legs to distribute them, as per the first castle scene.

2) When God talks to Arthur, both are played by Graham Chapman. Does this mean God is only in his/your own mind? The other knights react to what they see, but don't talk to him or reference anything he says.

3) You can see that when the black knight is down just just the one leg, he's actually played by a one-legged local instead of by Cleese.

There's lots of this rubbish, and we love it. I only just made up number two (although it is true).

As a bonus, here's a relevant XKCD:
