From Monty Python's Flying Circus All The Words (V. 1):
--------------------------------------
...So these blancmanges, blancmange-shaped creatures come from the planet Skyron in the Galaxy of Andromeda. They order 48,000,000 kilts from a Scottish menswear shop...turn the population of England into Scotsmen (well known as the worst tennis-playing nation on Earth) thus leaving England empty during Wimbledon fortnight...what's more the papers are full of reports of blancmanges appearing on tennis courts up and down the country -- practising. This can only mean one thing!

They mean to win Wimbledon.

Hilarious sketch and absolutely perfect analogy for the behavior of American bank/cs these days. Thanks, tsuwm, for much-needed chuckles.
