Gotta love 'Not the Nine O'clock News', Someone should upload the Flowerbed sketch, and the Bounce song (which is on after this sketch).

this is sketch is famous for introducing two new words into the english language (believe it or not). the collective noun for gorillas was made-up, and simply taken as true.

(from Wikipedia)
* Perhaps the most famous sketch was "Gerald the Intelligent Gorilla": an interview with a professor (Smith) and his highly-trained primate (Atkinson).

Professor: "When I caught Gerald, he was completely wild." Gerald: "Wild? I was absolutely livid." It led to the adoption of two new uses for words in the English language, namely "whoop" and "flange" as collective nouns for gorillas[7] and baboons[8] respectively.
