A hard up father presents his son with a birthday gift. As the kid excitedly opens the box, he beams: ''I've always wanted a remote control motorbike!''. However, the boy is disappointed when all he sees in the box is a pack of batteries and a sticker reading - ''Present Not Included!''.
At the news desk, a news anchor reads: ''We go behind the scenes of an N. H. S hospital kitchen!''. We then see a group of men in gas masks trying to escape from a darkened underground bunker!
A group of Orangemen discuss their individual beliefs with each other. One says: ''I am a Methodist, and I have always enjoyed freedom of worship''. The second one says: ''I'm a Presbyterian and I have had no interference with my beliefs at all''. The third one says: ''I'm a Catholic, and I have had no problems whatsoever!''. The other two Orangemen start beating him up!
An amateur Scottish folk group are visited by an ex-member who split the band to become a big star in America. They are less than thrilled to see him. ''It's terrible the way you told the whole world you were a homosexual just to get on in life!'' says one of the band members. ''Especially since you are the only one of us who isn't!'' says another!
Siadwell this week tells us tails of his day at school. ''We had a visit from the blind school dentist. Because of the N. H. S cuts he got a guide rabbit instead of a guide dog, but the council got fed up of digging him out of rabbit holes all the time!''.
A man arrives home early in the morning to face an angry wife at the breakfast table. From the excuses he keeps coming out with, we gather that he has been out all night in the company of another woman. The wife refuses to believe his stories, until he presents her with a large bouquet of flowers, then suddenly all is forgiven. We then hear an announcer's voice say: ''When words seem inadequate, deny it with flowers!''. An obvious parody on the slogan - ''Say It With Flowers!''.
A group of neo-nazis are assembled so a volunteer can be assigned to blow up the Houses Of Parliament via a suicide car bomb attack. A rather eccentric looking man is assigned for the job and when he is asked if he knows his way there, he replies ''I think so, but if I get lost, I can always ask a policeman!''.
A sketch plays over the end credits in which we see 'The Baldy Man', a blank background behind him, sitting with a look of discomfort on his face. As the credits finish rolling, he exclaims in alarm: ''Bloody hell, there's no toilet paper!''. Here, Baldy very occasionally used the power of speech, but when the character graduated to his own show in 1995, it was decided he would not speak at all. A wise decision, I thought.
A rather average episode with too many irons in different fires. Though Gregor Fisher seems to get to do more than he did in the earlier episodes, it is just a shame he seems to have under par material to work off of.
Funniest sketch - a young man bursting a huge spot on the tip of his nose, sending puss spraying onto a bathroom mirror. The man then presses a button which activates a windscreen wiper to clean away the puss from the mirror!
