Har!  Wonder if those old Up Pompeii shows have survived.  Sounds like a series possibly influenced by Stephen Sondheim's sixties comedy, A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum. (which was also inspired by the farces of Plautus)

Frankie Howerd had previously performed in a stage version of that Sondheim musical, which led to some concerns at the BBC over a possible copyright claim. But Talbot Rothwell (of Carry On fame) who was the the principal writer of Up Pompeii claimed he had never seen either the Sondheim stage musical or its film version.

There are quite a few episodes and gag-reel excerpts from Up Pompeii available on YT. The following clip of Lurcio reading yet another non-rhyming ode penned by Nausius, the love-struck son of his master, probably gives a fair idea of the level of humour.

Why do engineers confuse Halloween and Christmas?

Because Oct. 31 = Dec. 25

Why are covens of sixteen witches so dangerous?

Because they hex a decimal system.

Who is this Rorschach guy and why does he paint so many pictures of my mother in the nude?

[TheVat]

Why he paints in the nude, I have no idea.  Perhaps it saves on his laundry bills?

Probably because the model or artist's paramour showed up when they were doing something besides painting.

If I was POTUS, when I was riding in the limo I'd put on one of those rubber alien heads roll down the window and wave to people.

It was indeed.

There are quite a few episodes of Up Pompeii floating around Youtube space.
