 It is a catchy tune. Shakespeare is funny.  Does anyone remember the names of the two male comedians that were big on the CBC during the 60s and 70. They also appeared on American TV. I remember that they often did Shakespearean humour.

 

Speaking of the CBC from Friday Night with Ralph Benmergui (I bet you all forgot about that show) .

 

Here is the bit that Don Cherry and  Scott Thompson did in 1992.

 One of the most memorable Nation Film Board Productions is the Cat Came Back. It will also get that Monty Python Tune out of your head.

 Did you know you can get all of the NFB films for free on the web.  Does anyone remember the name of the NFB Cartoon with the singing Lumberjack.

I just heard a song on the radio that I believe belongs here. I can't find it on YouTube or when I do a search. I am sure it is the Monty Python crew talking about the weather. They go through each month and describe the weather. It ends with complaining that January is here again.

 

Anyone know what this one is?
