    • Trivia
      In the opening sketch, where the cast are dressed as ladies running around threatening slow laborers and censoring "obscene" art, they are all wearing armbands with the letters PP, meaning "Pepperpots," the Monty Python troop's affectionate label for their old lady characters.
    • Goofs
      Mr. Gumby has visible difficulty controlling his laughter when he says, "My brain in my head!"
    • Quotes

      Mrs. Jalin: There's a man at the door with a mustache.

      Mr. Jalin: Tell him I've already got one.
