"How Not to be Seen" is a favourite of mine.

Another thing, although not quiet a Python sketch, is from the Holy Grail CD: the Camelot Song sketch in Lego.

The Meaning of life is my favourite over all ... (Paul, I also meant DVD .. ha ha ha .. I must be equally tired)

Other Meaning of life classics .. Accountancy B movie (Crimson Life Assurance)

"This man is about to die", and has chosen his death ... being ran of a cliff by several topless woman wearing crash helmets

"We've come to collect your liver !"

Twit of the Year was indeed awesome.

Other favourites:

I really like the preamble to the Lumberjack song, with Palin as the crazy barber. However, I'm not such a fan of the Lumberjack song itself.

"How shall we **** off, O Lord?"

It's not really a Monty Python episode but it features some of its original cast- Fawlty Towers tv series

As aforementioned, "The Bishop!" thing is indeed hilarious.

I also like the episode that starts with the movie set where Cleese is the Scottish director who thinks everything is "grrreeeat!", and then they fight the giant penguin. The name escapes me at the moment.

The middle of the film (introduction) - The Meaning of Life
The Grim Reaper - Meaning of Life
The machine that goes 'ping' (and the administrator) - The Meaning of Life
The Holy Hand Grenade and killer rabbit - Holy Grail

And my favourite MP sketch:
The Crimson Life Assurance Company's invasion of the main feature - The Meaning of life
