    Storyline

    Did you know

    • Trivia
      The two flatmates who have their sketch cut are told that if they can get a piano stool they can appear later on film. Sure enough, in the school play film later on, they appear as the piano player and his page turner.
    • Goofs
      In the sketch about the Royal Society for Putting Things on Top of Other Things, the shots from outside the open window show a window that is open much higher than the shots from the inside.
    • Quotes
      • Boxing Critc: Obviously boxing must have its limits, but providing they're both perfectly fit I can see nothing wrong with one healthy man beating the living daylights out of a little schoolgirl.
    • Connections
      Referenced in Monty Python's and Now for Something Completely Different (1971)
