The Spanish Inquisition | Monty Python’s Flying Circus, Series 2 Episode 2

“The Spanish Inquisition“ is a series of sketches in Monty Python's Flying Circus, Series 2 Episode 2, first broadcast 22 September 1970, satirizing the Spanish Inquisition. This episode is itself titled “The Spanish Inquisition“. The sketches are notable for their principal catchphrase, “Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition!“, which has become a frequently used quote and internet meme. The final instance of the sketch uses music from the composition “Devil's Galop“ by Charles Williams. Rewritten audio versions of the sketches were included on Another Monty Python Record in 1971. #montypython #flyingcircus #spanishinquisition
