You never know who’s going to show up

October 26, 1972

Ringo Starr and singer Lulu appear in non-speaking cameos on the Monty Python’s Flying Circus episode Mr And Mrs Brian Norris’ Ford Popular on this date.

The tramp (Michael Palin) enters and sits between them and begins his introduction, in David Frost style: “Hello, good evening, welcome … It’s …” a cue for the closing titles of the program to run. While Lulu gets up and storms off stage in a huff, Ringo (still not uttering a single word) becomes involved in a fight with the tramp.
