Monty Python's Flying Circus · Season 1, Episode 8

Colonel, Watkins and others in “Full Frontal Nudity”

CColonel

Watkins, why did you join the army?

WWatkins

For the water-skiing and the travel, sir. Not for the killing, sir. I asked them to put it on my form, sir: "no killing".

CColonel

Watkins, are you a pacifist?

WWatkins

No, sir. I'm not a pacifist, sir: I'm a coward.

CColonel

[disgusted] That's a very silly line. Sit down!

CThe Colonel

Now, I've noticed a tendency for this program to get rather silly. Now I do my best to keep things moving along, but I'm not having things getting silly. Those last two sketches I did got very silly indeed; And the last ones about the beds was even sillier! Now, nobody likes a good laugh more than I do...except perhaps my wife...and some of her friends. Oh yes, and Captain Johnson. Come to think of it, most people like a good laugh more than I do, but that's beside the point.
