Life Of Brian Page #7
- Uh, Francis, you've been
doing some work on this?
- Yeah. Thank you, Reg.
Well, quite frankly, siblings,
I think five years is optimistic...
unless we can smash the Roman Empire
within the next 12 months.
- Twelve months, yeah?
- Twelve months.
And let's face it, as empires
go, this is the big one,
so we gotta get up off our asses
and stop just talkin' about it.
- Hear! Hear!
- It's action that counts, not words.
- And we need action now!
- Hear! Hear!
You're right. We could
sit around here all day,
talkin', passin' resolutions,
makin' clever speeches.
It's not gonna shift
one Roman soldier!
So let's just stop gabbin' on about it.
It's completely pointless.
- And it's gettin' us nowhere.
- Right!
I agree. This is a complete
waste of time.
- They've arrested Brian!
- What? What?
They dragged him off!
They want to crucify him!
Right! This calls
for immediate discussion!
- What?
- lmmediate!
- Right.
- New motion?
Completely new motion.
Uh, that, uh,
that there be
immediate action
- Once the vote has been taken.
- Obviously once the vote's been taken.
- You can't act on a resolution
till you've voted on it.
- Reg, let's go now, please!
- Right! ln the light of fresh
information from Sibling Judith.
- Not so fast, Reg.
Reg, for God's sake!
It's perfectly simple.
All you've got to do
is to go out of that door now...
and try to stop the Romans
nailing him up!
It's happening, Reg!
Something's actually happening, Reg!
Can't you understand?
Oh!
- Ooh. Ooh. Yup.
A little ego trip
from the feminists?
- What?
- Oh, sorry, Loretta?
Uh, read that back,
would you?
Next? Crucifixion?
- Yes.

Out of the door,

Next? Crucifixion?
- Uh, no, freedom.
- Mmm? What?
Uh, freedom for me.
They said I hadn't done anything,
so I could go free
and live on an island somewhere.
Oh. Well, that's jolly good.
Well, off you go then.
No, I'm only pulling your leg.
It's crucifixion, really.
Oh, I see.
Very good, very good.

- Um, do, do you have a lawyer?
- No, but I'm a Roman.
How about a retrial?
We got plenty of time.
- Shut up, you!
- Miserable Romans. No sense of humor.
- I'm sorry. Bit of a hurry.
Can you go straight out?
Line on the left, one cross each. Now
Was it something I said?
- Silence!
This man commands
a "cwack" legion!
He "wanks" as high
as any in "Wome."
Crucifixion party.
Morning. Now, we will be on
a show as we go through the town,
so let's not
let the side down.
Keep in a straight line, three lengths
between you and the man in front...
and a good, steady pace.
Crosses over
your left shoulders,
and if you keep your backs
hard up against the cross beam,
- you'll be there in no time.
All right, centurion.
Crucifixion party
Wait for it!
Crucifixion party,
by the left, forward!
You lucky bastards!
You lucky, jammy bastards!
Let me shoulder
your burden, brother.
Oh, thank you.
- HHey! Hey!
- Hey, what do you think you're doing?
- Uh, it's not my cross.
- Shut up and get on with it!
He had you there, mate, didn't he?
That'll teach you a lesson.
- All right.
I'm gonna give you
one more chance.
This time I want to hear
no "Weubens,"
no "Weginalds,"
no "Wudolph
the Wednosed Weindeers."
No Spencer Tracys!
- Release Brian!
- Oh, yeah. That's a good one.
"Welease" "Bwian"!
"Welease" "Bwian"!
"Vewy" well. That's it.
- Sir, we, uh, we have got a Brian, sir.

Uh, you just sent him
for crucifixion, sir.
Wait, wait.
We do have a "Bwian."
- Well, go and "wepwieve" him,
"stwaight" away.
- Yes, sir. Yes, sir.
"Vewy" well.
I shall... "welease" "Bwian"!
- Get a move on, there!
- Or what?
- Or you'll be in trouble.
- Oh, dear.
You mean I might have to give up
being crucified in the afternoons?
- Shut up!
- That would be a blow, wouldn't it?
I wouldn't have nothing to do.
Oh, thank you.
Are they gone?
WWe've got lumps of it
round the back.
- What?
- Oh, don't worry about him, sir.
