Summary
"'Man's Crisis of Identity in the Latter Half of the 20th
Century' and more worrisome problems"
In excerpts from "The Complete and Utter History of
Britain" (1969) a Stone Age real estate agent shows a
prehistoric dwelling, the Romans share home movies of
their invasion, and William the Conqueror is
congratulated on winning the Battle of Hastings.
The "Monty Python" episode "ManÕs Crisis of Identity in
the Latter Half of the 20th Century" (1969) features
"confuse-a-cat," the arrest of a news reader, and John
Cleese as an executive interviewing an applicant for a
management training course. The episode is followed by
"Managing Problem People: Moaning Minnie" (1988), one
of CleeseÕs successful management training videotapes,
starring Emma Thompson as a hapless employee.
The unforgettable battle between a Scotsman and a
blancmange from outer space unfolds in the Monty Python
episode "Oh YouÕre No Fun Anymore" (1969).
