More hilarious adventures with the 'Naked Video' gang.
On the news desk, one of the anchor's reads: ''We ask Mrs. Thatcher if Sir Geoffrey Howe has a brain!''. We then cut to video footage of Thatcher answering: ''Just a tiny little bit!''.
Two Generals - Cumberland and Bingley - discuss in an interview their plans of defence against the U. S. S. R. When Bingley describes Cumberland as being 'a man with his finger on the button!', Cumberland says: ''And the only way the button could be pressed is by accident. And there is no way that I am going to press that button by accident!'', whilst all the time unconsciously jabbing his finger against a reception desk bell!
Two scriptwriters ( based on Jimmy Perry and David Croft ) mull over ideas for a sitcom set in a Japanese concentration camp. ''We could call it 'Are You Being Starved?' or 'I Ain't Half Thin, Mum' ( both titles which are obvious parodies of 'Are You Being Served?' or 'It Ain't Half Hot, Mum!' ).
Siadwell reads us this week a poem he has written entitled 'Yes'. It reads: ''No...no...no...oh all right then!''. The studio audience applauds.
'The Baldy Man' prepares himself a boiled egg ( which sports a comb over! ) for breakfast. When he taps the top of the egg with a spoon, a giant spoon falls from out of nowhere and cracks the top of his head, spilling egg yolk everywhere, much to his bewilderment and horror!
The episode concludes with a musical sketch about nuclear arms entitled 'Guardian Angel', written and performed by David McNiven.
Another brilliant episode. Gregor Fisher and Ron Bain are the stand-outs in this episode. Bain was rather good here, bringing the same robust energy to his sketches the same way he did in 'A Kick Up The Eighties' and 'Laugh? I Nearly Paid My Licence Fee'. It was a pity he left after series two to become a director. He would later direct 'City Lights' ( which featured Andy Gray ) and 'The Tales Of Para Handy' ( with Gregor Fisher in the title role ).
Funniest sketch - a driving instructor testing his pupil on his knowledge of 'The Highway Code'. After the pupil answers each question incorrectly ( such as saying a red light means go or that a zebra crossing is the best place to overtake a slow moving vehicle ), the instructor responds: ''Congratulations, you've passed, you've got your taxi driver licence!''. The applause from the studio audience here speaks volumes!
Second funniest sketch - the 'scriptwriters' sketch. Un PC I know, but it was hilarious, thanks to the brilliant performances from Ron Bain and Gregor Fisher. Besides, I am one of the most Un PC people there is and I am proud of it!
