I will never forget the Two Ronnies.
I loved their "news items". One I particularly remember was about a criminal gang who did cut and shut jobs on stolen cars. They told the usual puns about various combinations of half cars with no doubt slightly rude names.
But the punch line was the police chief inspector reported as saying how clever the gang was from the driver's seat of his "E-type combine harvester". Still cracks me up.
What those guys did with nothing more than siting straight faced at a desk was remarkable.
Then the was the one about a man who stole items from delegates at an international conference. "He stole a pencil from a woman from Pensylvania, a bell from Belgian, a port from a Portugese man. ... ... ... And a woman from Nicaragua ran from the room screaming."
