:D Hilarious! I like when Fry plays the fool like that!

I am going to steal that and post it on my board!

Absolutely delicious. My first urge is to share it with everybody I know who understands just a little bit of Dracula and Vampires :-)

Awesome! I will definitely be showing this video around.

Anybody else get a little laugh at the name of the court case, "Melchett v. the Vatican?"

Actually, I could use some help with that one. I think Melchett was the character Fry played in Blackadder, but for one, he seems much younger in this sketch, and for the other, I don't see any obvious relationship with the Vatican.

So, what's the joke here? Oh, and why should he be naked? Is it just for the gag?


Thanks.

I'm afraid I barely got his humor but I did laugh at the: "oh sh*t!"

Melchett was indeed his character in Blackadder. If I remember correctly, he was a Bishop (presumably Anglican, considering it was set during Elizabethan times), which might go a little way to explaining the "vs. the Vatican" court case.

I had forgotten that Melchett was a priest. That makes it even funnier.
