Your turn Q. :p
Okay...

Ah, a real toughie. Name three working titles of Monty Python's Flying Circus that didn't have 'flying circus' in it. (Hint: one of them was used as an episode title)
I know one of them was "Owl Stretching Time."
Okay, so raisindot got one. :)

"Several names for the show were considered before Monty Python's Flying Circus was settled upon. Some were Owl Stretching Time, Toad Elevating Moment, A Bucket, a Horse and a Spoon, Vaseline Review and Bun, Wackett, Buzzard, Stubble and Boot. "
Okay, okay, you got it. Owl Stretching Time and Bun, Wackett, Buzzard, Stubble and Boot were two that I was thinking of, and besides those ones that you Googled (cheater), I would have accepted, amongst so many others, Ow! It's Colin Plint!, Them, It's Them!, The Venus de Milo Panic Show, Arthur Megapode's Zoo, The Atomic Zoo, The Horrible Earnest Megapode, and The Whizzo Easishow.

Ah, I have a good one.

The Pythons use the term 'pepperpot' to describe the sort of screechy, middle-aged lady that they portray in drag. But they actually defined 'pepperpot' in a previous comedy many of the Pythons were involved in. What was that comedy, and why are they called 'pepperpots'?
