It's...

I've watched Monty Python's Flying Circus for years. But I just noticed the other day that when Terry Jones is playing an old lady pepperpot, he's usually knitting (English style, of course). And if you look closely, he is actually knitting (or doing an awfully good imitation of it). I've googled around a bit, and can't find any references to his knitting prowess, but it sure looks like he knows how to knit to me.
