Tunnelling from Godalming to Java is a sketch that appears in "Untitled", the tenth episode of Monty Python's Flying Circus.
Synopsis[]
Following his record-setting attempts in the previous sketch, Ron Obvious' (Terry Jones) next attempt is to tunnel from Godalming to Java. As an interviewer (John Cleese) speaks to Obvious' manager, Luigi Vercotti (Michael Palin), Obvious makes two feet and six inches of progress. Ron then attempts to split a railway carriage with his nose and run to Mercury, but dies. Vercotti insists that Obvious will now set the record for remaining underground.
