* WeAreExperiencingTechnicalDifficulties: After the live airing of ''The Willetts of Littlehampton'' breaks down as various heads of programming lead groups of foreign television representatives onto the set, the continuity announcer (Graham Chapman) snarls that [[TemptingFate perhaps the head of children's programming is about to lead a party of Eskimos onto the set]]. The picture cuts to the announcement "Normal service will be resumed as soon as possible"... at which point the head of children's programming (Barry Cryer) smashes through the picture with a group of Eskimos (Tim Brooke-Taylor, John Cleese, and Marty Feldman).

* NeverNeedsSharpening: The "Stringettes" sketch (for which only the audio survives) features John Cleese as an excitable advertising rep and Marty Feldman as a prospective client with a 122,000 mile collection of string - which has been cut into three-inch segments due to bad planning. The advertising rep decides to market the idea as "Stringettes", the string that has already been cut to the right length.
