Summary
In many ways, this programme provided a 'rehearsal' for Monty Python's Flying Circus.
Graham Chapman and John Cleese began writing together, producing a string of unrelated sketches fairly similar in style to those in Monty Python. Eric Idle also appeared in some episodes.
The title of the programme came from a sarcastic remark by John Cleese about the amount of time it had taken to get the programme 'up and running'.
For some reason, this programme was was only shown in a few ITV regions in the UK. It was never nationally networked.
