You ever see that episode of Monty Python where aliens show up and turn everyone into scotsmen? It turns out the aliens are actually a bunch of blancmanges, and they really want to win the trophy at wimbledon, but the only thing worse than a blancmange at playing tennis is a scot. So they turn the entire population of England into scotsmen one by one, then enter wimbledon, but the day is saved by the world's best scottish tennis player, who is also the world's worst professional tennis player.

That's amazing! I really need to watch the complete Flying Circus, since I downloaded it months ago. Show kind of got in the way.

The highlight of the episode is the actual tennis match, in which you see the giant blancmange holding a tennis racket running around on the court.
