Absolutely fantastic! And also worth a fortune no doubt, you will hear of birds like this (not as talented) being stolen from peoples homes quite often.
I always used to like the myna bird in carry on camping ' show us ye knickers'

The bird is a African Grey Parrot (FYI)....they are not mean't to be as quite as clever as Amazon Parrots or Cockatoos. I had a Moluccan Cockatoo which used to imitate the phone perfectly.....

My parents have an African Grey. Not as talented as this one but still capable of outsmarting their dogs and the cat. Does a mean impression of my father calling the dogs from the garden- drives them mad.
Can do police cars as well which she hears going by on the road. Highly entertaining.

It was "Carry On Behind" (1975) similar in many ways to "Camping" though!

Good... but IMO nothing compared to Skidboot the mongrel - taken from the same series. I remember seeing this when it was on, and was gobsmacked.
