Yes, it's finally happened. In a penalty shootout Eric Morecambe's favourite tongue-twister became a reality.  ;D

I must confess I scratched my head trying to understand what the thread was all about. ;D

Fortunately the link you provided made everything clear.^^

I've never heard of Eric Morecambe to be honest, nice find.

This reminds me how I discovered Milton Berle by accident just by watching the original Muppet Show, I'm fond of the original TV Series (don't laugh^^). It's old yet it's got soul. Coming back to Berle, it was good fun watching him getting totally destroyed by the 2 sour-elders always lugging around the balcony box: Statler et Waldorf. :P

Quote
...Statler: Hey, Berle? You know what? I've just figured out your style.
Berle: Really?
Statler: You work like Gregory Peck.
Berle: Gregory Peck is not a comedian.
Statler: Well?
Berle: Now just a minute, please. I have been a successful comedian half of my life.
Waldorf: How come we got this half?
Berle: Did you two come in here to be entertained or not?
Statler: That's right.
Berle: What's right?
Statler: We came in here to be entertained and we're not.
Berle: Oh, yeah? I'd love to see you come down here and be funny.
Waldorf: You first!
Berle: Ha ha ha, the audience. Don't pay any attention to him, folks. He's the ninth child of a family of eight. Let me tell this story....
Statler: Hey, Berle!
Berle: Ohhh... Yes, what is it? What is it?
Statler: You know what you're doing wrong?
Berle: What I'm doing wrong?
Statler: You're standing too close to the audience.
Berle: Oh, yeah? How is this?
Statler: You're still too close.
Berle: Oh, sorry. Is this okay?
Statler: Now little more.
Berle: How far back do you want me to go?
Statler: You got a car?...
