Monty Python - Climbing the North Face of the Uxbridge Road
Climbing the North Face of the Uxbridge Road
Voice Over: Meanwhile not very far away.
Voice Over: Climbing. The world’s loneliest sport, where hardship and philosophy go hand in glove. And here, another British expedition, attempting to be the first man to successfully climb the north face of the Uxbridge Road. This four-man rope has been climbing tremendously. BBC cameras were there to film every inch.
Chris: The major assault on the Uxbridge Road has been going on for about three weeks, really ever since they established base camp here at the junction of Willesden Road, and from there they climbed steadily to establish camp two, outside Lewis’s, and it’s taken them another three days to establish camp three, here outside the post office. Well they’ve spent a good night in there last night in preparation for the final assault today. The leader of the expedition is twenty-nine-year-old Bert Tagg - a local headmaster and mother of three.
Interviewer: Bert. How’s it going?
Bert: Well, it’s a bit gripping is this, Chris. I’ve got to try and reach that bus stop in an hour or so and I’m doing it by... damn ... I’m doing it, er, by laying back on this gutter so I’m kind of guttering and laying back at the same time, and philosophizing.
Interviewer: Bert, some people say this is crazy.
Bert: Aye, well but they said Crippen was crazy didn’t they?
Interviewer: Crippen was crazy.
Bert: Oh, well there you are then. John, I’m sending you down this carabiner on white.
Viking: Lemon curry?
Bert: Now you see he’s putting a peg down there because I’m quite a way up now, and if I come unstuck here I go down quite a long way.
Interviewer: Such quiet courage is typical of the way these brave chaps shrug off danger. Like it or not, you’ve got to admire the skill that goes into it.
