Yes, this is the episode which features the rousing production number "The Spam Song," performed by a chorus of Vikings. But wait, there's more. A Hungarian tourist, armed with such helpful English phrases as "My hovercraft is full of eels" and "Drop your panties, Sir William, I cannot wait until lunchtime" pays a visit to a London tobacconist. The publisher of the tourist's highly unreliable English-Hungarian phrasebook is put on trial, with testimony provided by a topless girl. Karl Marx, Che Guevara, and Mao Tse-Tung are quizzed on their football knowledge. Production on a WWI film is held up until all the unnecessary actors are removed. Two art critics discuss important matters with figures from famous paintings. A clergyman is interred in the Royal Hospital for Overacting. And D.P. Gumby arranges flowers. An episode with everything but the kitchen sink, "Spam" was originally broadcast December 16, 1970.
