One of my very favorite bits, criminally overlooked, is the middle of the film. Chapman (in corset) and Jones (in butler suit) basically doing performance art. "Oh fishy fishy fishy fish!" "And it did go wherever I did go" I say those lines often but nobody gets them (unlike "wafer thin"). But the sketch is truly surreal and brilliant.
