Goofs

When the real Njorl is replaced off-screen with a dummy (in preparation for a joke later in the sketch), there is a loud thud accompanying whatever the audience is laughing at off-screen, and the police officer giving testimony (Michael Palin), as well as the officers behind him, can be seen stifling their laughter.
