    Storyline

    • Trivia
      Michael Palin, dressed as a police officer, stops traffic on Westminster Bridge in the centre of London. The traffic appears to be the normal traffic, and not specialist drivers hired for the programme. So technically he could have been arrested for impersonating a police officer, which is a criminal offence in Britain.

      [first lines]

      Hamlet: [on couch] It's just that where ever I go it's the same old thing. All anyone wants me to say is "to be or not to be".

      First Psychiatrist: That is the question, whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer slings and arrows...
