A scene from Monty Python and the Holy Grail 1975
Bedevere

How do you know she is a witch?

Peasant

She looks like one.

Bedevere

[Crowd indistinctly shouts]

Bring her forward!

Girl

I'm not a witch.

Bedevere

But you are dressed as one...

Girl

They dressed me up like this. [Crowd murmurs]

Girl

And this isn't my nose. This is a false one.

Bedevere

[inspects the nose and confirms]

Well?

Peasant

Well, we did do the nose.

Bedevere

The nose?

Peasant

And the hat. She's a witch!

Peasant Crowd

Burn her!

Bedevere

Did you dress her up like this?

Peasant Crowd

No, no, no! [beat] Yes, yes. A bit. But she's got a wart.

Bedevere

What makes you think she is a witch?

Peasant

Well, she turned me into a newt!

Bedevere

[Bedevere gives him a disbelieving look]

A newt?

Peasant

[Silence]

I got better.

Peasant Crowd

Burn her anyway!
