Stuff that Funky Gibbon, why don't you?!?

While my knowledge of Python's contemporaries in British comedy is rather limited, one name I knew of was the Goodies. Never caught an episode, although now I'm tempted to go hunt them down after hearing this. Absolute surrealistic play-on-word fast-paced fun. This is what Audible needs to be doing more if they're going down the comedy path. "They defeated Kitten Kong! They stuffed the Funky Gibbon! Can they save Parliament as well?" Apparently so, if only for one episode, with the tragic death of Tim Brooke-Taylor presumably putting an end to an ongoing Goodies series.

And I always knew that wiley Joanna Lumley was a Russian agent! Strewth!
