Talk:1949 FA Cup Final

Latest comment: 1 year ago by RMCD bot in topic Move discussion in progress

Hi, forgive me if this is inappropriate, but I wondered if a mention of the Monty Python skit "Communist Quiz" is appropriate for the page on the 1949 FA Cup, since that game is the final question asked of Marx in the skit. Here's the relevant quote from the script:

Presenter: Yes, yes! One final question Karl and the beautiful lounge suite will be yours... Are you going to have a go? (Karl nods) You're a brave man. Karl Marx, your final question, who won the Cup Final in 1949?

Karl: The workers' control of the means of production? The struggle of the urban proletariat?

Presenter: No. It was in fact, Wolverhampton Wanderers who beat Leicester 3-1.

(Cut to stock film of goal bring scored in a big football match. Roar from crowd. Stock footage of football crowds cheering.)

A full script of the skit (which also includes questions about West Ham United and Coventry City) can be found here"Communist Quiz.

Forgive me if this is inappropriate, but I just though a brief note might be of use to Python fans. --216.15.51.29 02:32, 24 December 2006 (UTC) ChoatewardReply
