The Spanish Inquisition ═══ Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition, not even in this documentation Voice over film of Medieval Europe "In the early years of the 16th century, in an attempt to quell the rising tide of religious unorthodoxy, the pope agve Cardinal Ximenez of Spain leave to move without let or hindrance in a reign of violence and terror that makes a smashing film...This was the Spanish Inquisition... The door flies open and Cardinal Ximinez of Spain (Palin) enters, flanked by two junior cardinals. Cardinal Biggles (Jones) has goggles pushed over his forehead. Cardinal Fang (Gilliam) is just Cardinal Fang Ximinez: NOBODY expects the Spanish Inquisition! Our chief weapon is suprise...surprise and fear...fear and surprise.... Our two weapons are fear and surprise...and ruthless efficiency.... Our *three* weapons are fear, surprise, and ruthless efficiency...and an almost fanatical devotion to the Pope.... Our *four*...no... *Amongst* our weapons.... Amongst our weaponry...are such elements as fear, surprise.... I'll come in again. Exit and exeunt Chapman: I didn't expect a kind of Spanish Inquisition. The cardinals burst in Ximinez: NOBODY expects the Spanish Inquisition! Amongst our weaponry are such diverse elements as: fear, surprise, ruthless efficiency, an almost fanatical devotion to the Pope, and nice red uniforms - Oh damn! To Cardinal Biggles I can't say it - you'll have to say it. Biggles: What? Ximinez: You'll have to say the bit about 'Our chief weapons are ...' Biggles: rather horrified I couldn't do that... Ximinez bundles the cardinals outside again Chapman: I didn't expect a kind of Spanish Inquisition. The cardinals enter Biggles: Er.... Nobody...um.... Ximinez: Expects... Biggles: Expects... Nobody expects the...um...the Spanish...um... Ximinez: Inquisition. Biggles: I know, I know! Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition. In fact, those who do expect - Ximinez: Our chief weapons are... Biggles: Our chief weapons are...um...er... Ximinez: Surprise... Biggles: Surprise and -- Ximinez: Okay, stop. Stop. Stop there - stop there. Stop. Phew! Ah! ...our chief weapons are surprise...blah blah blah. Cardinal, read the charges. Fang: You are hereby charged that you did on diverse dates commit heresy against the Holy Church. 'My old man said follow the--' Biggles: That's enough. To Cleveland Now, how do you plead? Cleveland: We're innocent. Ximinez: Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha! Superimposed caption: 'DIABOLICAL LAUGHTER' Biggles: We'll soon change your mind about that! Superimposed caption: 'DIABOLICAL ACTING' Ximinez: Fear, surprise, and a most ruthless-- controls himself with a supreme effort Ooooh! Now, Cardinal -- the rack! Biggles produces a plastic-coated dish-drying rack. Ximinez looks at it and clenches his teeth in an effort not to lose control. He hums heavily to cover his anger Ximinez: You....Right! Tie her down. Fang and Biggles make a pathetic attempt to tie her on to the drying rack Ximinez: Right! How do you plead? Cleveland: Innocent. Ximinez: Ha! Right! Cardinal, give the rack (oh dear) give the rack a turn. Biggles stands their awkwardly and shrugs his shoulders Biggles: I.... Ximinez: gritting his teeth I *know*, I know you can't. I didn't want to say anything. I just wanted to try and ignore your crass mistake. Biggles: I... Ximinez: It makes it all seem so stupid. Biggles: Shall I...? Ximinez: No, just pretend for God's sake. Ha! Ha! Ha! Biggles turns an imaginary handle on the side of the dish-rack Cut to them torturing a dear old lady, Marjorie Wilde Ximinez: Now, old woman -- you are accused of heresy on three counts -- heresy by thought, heresy by word, heresy by deed, and heresy by action -- *four* counts. Do you confess? Wilde: I don't understand what I'm accused of. Ximinez: Ha! Then we'll make you understand! Biggles! Fetch...THE CUSHIONS! Biggles holds out two ordinary modern household cushions Biggles: Here they are, lord. Ximinez: Now, old lady -- you have one last chance. Confess the heinous sin of heresy, reject the works of the ungodly -- *two* last chances. And you shall be free -- *three* last chances. You have three last chances, the nature of which I have divulged in my previous utterance. Wilde: I don't know what you're talking about. Ximinez: Right! If that's the way you want it -- Cardinal! Poke her with the soft cushions! Biggles carries out this rather pathetic torture Ximinez: Confess! Confess! Confess! Biggles: It doesn't seem to be hurting her, lord. Ximinez: Have you got all the stuffing up one end? Biggles: Yes, lord. Ximinez angrily hurling away the cushions Hm! She is made of harder stuff! Cardinal Fang! Fetch...THE COMFY CHAIR! Zoom into Fang's horrified face Fang terrified : The...Comfy Chair? Biggles pushes in a comfy chair -- a really plush one Ximinez: So you think you are strong because you can survive the soft cushions. Well, we shall see. Biggles! Put her in the Comfy Chair! They roughly push her into the Comfy Chair Ximinez with a cruel leer Now -- you will stay in the Comfy Chair until lunch time, with only a cup of coffee at eleven. aside, to Biggles Is that really all it is? Biggles: Yes, lord. Ximinez: I see. I suppose we make it worse by shouting a lot, do we? Confess, woman. Confess! Confess! Confess! Confess! Biggles: I confess! Ximinez: Not you!
