Macbeth, come and warm yourself by this woman,
She's here with two friends - that's a coven,
She needs to tell you something,
You're going to be king,
But you'll be killed in some years, 'bout a dozen.

Hi geggs

good twist though not side splitting +1

Anyone know the original

It's sounds like something that might come from the Goon Show. Peter Sellers as Grytpipe-Thynne "Now then Neddie, come and warm yourself..." etc. Don't know how it might finish though.

Another possibility is Groucho Marx?

Goog HD +3 Goon show theres more if you can complete the original

No, it's not a quote I know - just thought it sounded Goon Showish.

If Grytpipe-Thynne didn't say it, perhaps Major Bloodnok did?

Major Bloodnok +3 well guessed

come and warm yourself by this woman, she's........

just coming to the boil <> there she goes now.

Great slabs of goon show live in my memory even after fifty years.

That is a measure of how great they were.

And one of my favourites(from many)

From The Scarlet Capsule:

Henry Crun is explaining something he has found out about the mysterious capsule.

Neddy: "I hadn't thought of that"
Crun: "Squashed spuds in brown gravy"
Neddy: "I hadn't thought of that either"
Crun: "Sabrina (a fifties pin up girl) in the bath"
Neddy (giggling): "I do have some spare time"

Aside in the background from Spike Milligan :"I bet she doesn't"

Oh and in the spirit of the QI, my version (with acknowledgements to the masters)

Neddy, come warm yourself by this woman she's Minnie Bannister.

Bannister? Didn't I see you on the stairs?
