Monty Python and the Holy Grail

Sir Robin, Sir Galahad, and the old man all fall into the botomless pit of peril. Lancelot makes it across the bridge of death, but is arrested by the police. King Arthir and Sir Buedeviere make it to the castle aaagh, only to find it already occupied by the French. Arthur calls in a huge army to attack them, but they are stopped by the police just as they are charging.

Question: When Michael Palin is thrown into the fiery pit, he is either saying Yeeeoohhhhhhh or Yelllowwwww (meaning that was his favourite colour). Despite watching it many times, I'm still not sure which one it is...so does anyone know?

Gavin Jackson

Chosen answer: It's kind of both. He says "Blue", then realises he got it wrong and starts to say "No, yellow!" but then screams as he is thrown into the pit, so it's like "Blue. No, yell. Ooooooohhhhh!"

Answer: There was once a published Script. It was Yellow. The joke was he died because he changed his mind mid-answer.
