#3 is Peep Show and #9 is Royston Vasey. I'm sure I know the Monty Python and Fawlty Towers ones, but it's been so long since I watched either show that they won't come to me... | ||

The Fawlty Towers one is from Basil The Rat. As Basil is dragged off having collapsed, I think Sybil says something like, "I think it's looking like rain." | ||

I had no idea there was another town featured in The League of Gentlemen. I haven't heard the radio programme so I just assumed it was Royston Vasey... | ||
