"Spam (Monty Pythons Flying Circus sketch)" is a bit cumbersome. Shall we make it Spam (sketch), Spam (Monty Python), or something completely different...? -- Oliver P. 00:09 Feb 24, 2003 (UTC)

Does anyone call it just "Spam"? How about "Spam sketch" or "The Spam Sketch"? -- Tarquin
Ah, okay... I'll vote for Spam sketch. Argh, I still can't cope with this naming business... -- Oliver P. 00:42 Feb 24, 2003 (UTC)

Yay

I love this skit!

Discrepancy in menu between audio and video of sketch

The audio of the sketch available at http://www.detritus.org/spam/skit.html and the video from http://linux.gda.pl/pub/spam/ seem to have different menus! Specifically, the video does not have the following menu item:

- Spam, Sausage, Spam, Spam, Spam, Bacon, Spam, Tomato and Spam

and the final menu item in the audio is:

- Lobster Thermidor aux Crevettes with a Mornay sauce Served in a Provençale Manner with Shallots and Aubergines garnished with Truffle Paté, Brandy and a Fried egg on top and Spam,

while in the video it is:

- Lobster Thermidor aux Crevettes with a Mornay sauce garnished with Truffle Paté, Brandy and with a Fried egg on top and Spam,

without the italicized portion.

The transcript of the sketch available from http://www.epicure.demon.co.uk/spamsketch.html seems to support the video rather than the audio.

Would appreciate any light on this issue!
