Trivia[]
- The segment where Benny passes off a stuffed duck as a parrot, blaming its appearance on "the steaming" and "the shrinkage," is considered a progenitor of the 1969 "Dead Parrot" sketch from "Monty Python's Flying Circus." However, John Cleese, refutes this, saying he does not remember this episode.
