Similar to Cleese walk-on part in Ripping yarns

I watched that episode two days ago. It is very brief but brilliantly funny!

Are you insane man? *Books BCG firing squad for trip to Brazil*

Why, has he shot Speckled Jim?

This is probably in poor taste and rather out-of-date, but I only saw it today and it amused me.

My kids are fascinated with this show now.

Who's the sort playing Polly?

Is it Britney Spears?

Looks like it.

Is it Britney Spears?

I don't know. I'll ask the guy who made it. Incidentally, any puzzles Steve?

That is Britney... but I'm stuck on Sybil?

Condoleeza Rice!

I don't understand the point of it. Is it just a random collection of people who were famous five to ten years ago?

I guess so.

No I don't think it's random, I think it's a satire of the Bush administration a few years back. It looks a bit random now because the obvious odd one out to us is Britney, but didn't she famously do some pro-Bush gigs for his election campaigns? Yanks would have got this straight away in the early 00s.
