My dad found a vinyl of the best bits from the shows. OMG so funny. I think it was where Rowan Attkinson started his comedy life

yes- and i have the records too-( and I live in the USA that was shown during the heydays of british comedy being shown here in Seattle on PBS)
My favorite was a takeoff on all the uproar over monty python's Life of Brian movie- they turned it around so people were upset over the making of "Life of Python" and treating python like a religion-even revently quoting python sketches like they were Scriptures

I remember it too...it was a funny as hell spoof of the BBC's nightly "9 O'Clock News" broadcasts. It was also the inspiration for HBO's mid-Eighties spoof news show "Not Necessarily The News".
