In the 70s Monty Python picked up this tradition by shooting two episodes of 'Monty Python's Fliegender Zirkus' for German TV.
The first special was written in English, then translated to German, and all Python members learned their German lines by heart. They didn't have time for the second special, so that one was dubbed.
