Synopsis by Hal Erickson
In one of several sketches in this early Python episode, two Frenchmen with berets discuss the commercial feasibility of flying sheep. The host of "And Now for Something Completely Different" interviews Arthur Frampton, the man with three buttocks. A performance by Arthur Ewing and His 23 Musical Mice is followed by a lively marriage counseling session (cowboy regalia optional). A wrestling match is staged to determine God's existence. And "The World Around Us" offers a hard-hitting expose of The Mouse Problem. "Sex and Violence" originally aired in England on October 12, 1969.
