I've always love Graham Chapman's veddy British types like colonels and police officers, etc...
YouTube - Monty Python's best sketch ever
And Terry Jones is a hoot, especially good in the female characters...

Michael Palin? I think? That's a tough one. I do love all Python contributors.

The parrot. He does a fantastic job of pining for the fjords. Now THAT is great acting.
Reminds me of when we were kids <sniff> and our dear ol' nanny bought us a rat to play with. The poor thing was petrified of us, and never moved when we were around. We knew it was acting though, because when we would put it in the kitchen cabinet overnight, so it could find something to eat, it would always be back on our bed in the morning. One morning I think I even saw it flying from nanny to our bed, but nanny told me that rats don't fly.
It didn't matter though, we used to dress it up as a soldier and play war with it. It always won, and we all wanted it on our side, because it never retreated and just stared down any opponent. After a while it developed bad breath, and the flies started to hang around, so nanny gave it as a present to a man at the pub who didn't pay her for some "services" she did for him. <sniff> Those were the good old days.
I think that rats really can fly though. Did you notice how the killer rabbit was able to fly? That was another job of good acting. Most bunnies can't get out of character as poor little carrot and lettuce eaters that hop around with tiny hops. I'll bet the actor that played the killer rabbit gets the part for SuperRabbit when that comes out. Another part he would be great for is DraculaRabbit. He already knows how to fly and has those nasty sharp pointy teeth.
And now, for something completely different.
The Queen was reportedly photographed last week reaching behind President Obama of the U.S. and squeezing his buns, during his visit to London. No photographs are available, as the Royal Guard suddenly challenged the photographers to a football scrim for the entertainment of the delegation. Royal Guards 130, Photographers 2. President Obama was heard to say that he was pleased England had inpromptu pick-up games and regretted that basketball wasn't the national pastime.

I can't pick. They were all brilliant in their own way. It's impossible to pick a favorite.
