  • Any sketch starring Brian Butterfield, jack of all trades, yet master of none.
    • His injury lawyer agency, in which the business workers suffer injuries from incredibly implausible scenarios.
      • One case concerns a man who fell off a ladder after being "haunted by the ghost of his former employer," a boring salaryman who holds up his hands. The client says in his testimonial that Butterfield lost the suit and he now has to keep paying the ghost well after he dies.
      • Later on, he realises his last advert did not have a phone number on the end of it, and says it out loud...only the number he says is different from the number on the screen.
    • His hotel, featuring pillows made of printer paper, a tiny "tea-making facility", overstuffed drawers and no toilets. All in his hotel that is ranked "five asterisks, each one representing a fault with the hotel."
    • His diet plan, where you have to eat tiny amounts of food every weekday, then on Saturday, eat anything you want, from pizza to "mystery meats" and the classic "bonbonbonbons."
Brian Butterfield: You can order it exclusively online at: Double U, double double U, full stop, butterfield-diet, full stop, see oh em.

  • "Darth Vader in Love": In which the titular character meets Ada Larkin, an Imperial Commander who is his exact double; but in pink. The evil Sith Lord suddenly becomes extremely Adorkable.
  • "Ringo Remembers..."
    • "Goldfinger", where we're treated to a delightfully naff parody of a Ringo song set over James Bond-style opening credits.
    • "Christmas 1979", featuring a parody of Paul McCartney's "Wonderful Christmastime", entitled "Sexual Christmas Night". Ringo hates it so much that he calls the police, Paul is arrested and jailed, and "never wrote anything remotely sexy ever again".
