@cornsockgabz Are you Chris Morris? Yes thought so - very clever.

One of them is holding back a laugh at @5:16...I place my bet that it was Peter Cook

Thanks for the upload, just the kind of mental sparring I needed tonight :)

This is quite brilliant. There's no better! Cook hated the establishment for reasons best know to him - but he nevertheless maintained via satire his hatred to the end.

"Does the, er, sight of flesh... excite you?"
"I can think of more attractive features on you."

im not sure what to object to first, your pompous congratulating of yourself on your own perceived intelligence, or your dubious suggestion that the world has somehow become considerably "dumber" in the whopping 14 years since this was made. i dont recall this becoming a worldwide mainstream phenonemon in 1994 either.
