Well, I wasn't expecting that!!!

 

(For J S Bach's benefit, it's a reference to a Monty Python sketch relying on comic absurdity, in which an office meeing is in progress when Torquemada (John Cleese) and the Spanish Inquisition burst into the room.  'We weren't expecting you', 'Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition'!)

I never found python funny or even worth listening too, so missed that.

Not meant in any way at all to be derogatory  (and despite Stewart’s “agree”), I think that illustrates the differences between UK and US senses of humour (or humor!). 
 

“Monty Python” appears to be a very niche thing in the US, while it had a much bigger audience in the UK. And, typically, Canada appreciation seems to be somewhere in between.
