Farting Gag

Yeah, I guess I was envisioning Prince Charles with a red nose!

Prince Who?

[milo]

I love that you called me a clown! The first person to do so!

[Pickles]

I'm honored to be the first! You're definitely a clown.

Yes, Bonny Prince Chuckles. I don't think he even needs greasepaint, Shoot. He looks plenty sappy in a Kilt.

Yes Milo, You are a clown.

I forgot. I want to thank your Country and people for forever warping me thanks to Benny Hill, Monty Python, the Black Adder, Fawlty towers,Are you being Served? And Wallace and Grommit.

I am forever in your debt!

Don't forget all those other great Brit Coms!

Vicar of Dibley, Last of the Summer Wine, Open All Hours, Allo Allo, Thin Blue Line, Keeping Up Appearances, My Hero (until the last season), Red Dwarf, Good Neighbors, To the Manor Born....

I'm sure I'll think of more later on tonight, but these are some of my favorites, as well as the ones that Scruffy mentioned.

What about Charlie Chaplin and Laurel & Hardy – They were British weren’t they?

[Grandpa Weatherbie]

Yes! I've seen bizarre demonstration's of these flame throwing devices where cigarettes have been lit. I suppose with a little practice one could light and blow out birthday candles in sequence.
A visual or a sound effect might be all that is necessary. Once Grandpa Weatherbie had bent over and requested the finger pull, that was all that was necessary for the kids to roar.
Bill Cosby in one of his skits goes on about the tradition of finger pulling in America. He said he once got a toddler grandson to pull his finger in jest, and, at the precise moment that the child pulled his finger there was an enormous earthquake. Well, Bill said, "can you imagine what the reaction will be with that child the next time anyone as much as points a finger at him?"

I'm not sure about Charlie Cahplin, he might have been English (it would not surprise me). Stan Laurel definitely was from England (London or a suburb of London, I think), but Oliver Hardy was from a small town in Georgia, USA.
