From: "James St. John-Pynchon" 

Carved in mystic runes upon the very living rock, the last words of
Guilbert of alt.fan.monty-python make plain:

>>I understand the show was a bit of a sleeper, and took a while to
>>catch on-- was that true?
>
> When Monty Python started we only had 3 TV channels here in the UK

Sounds like a line from the Yorkshiremen sketch.

"Oh, you had *channels*? Luxury! We had to turn the TV on and imagine
pictures in the static!"
