CRI听力:Giant Blue Dead Parrot Honors "Pythons" Last Show

2014-07-15来源:CRI

A giant blue dead parrot made its way across London on Monday on the back of a lorry and found itself lying on its back outside London's iconic Tower Bridge.

The dead parrot is a homage to the 'Norwegian Blue' parrot of the famous Monty Python sketch, which was first screened 45 years ago and was recently voted Monty Python's funniest sketch.
 
The giant dead parrot was unveiled to mark the screening of Monty Python's final show of their ten day residency at London's O2 Arena, which is perhaps the last time the 'Pythons' will perform together.
 
he 'Norwegian Blue' parrot, which measures 15 metres from head to tail, was commissioned by UKTV's Gold channel, which is broadcasting the final Monty Python show live on Sunday.
