Door to door insurance sales sketch

hi,

I'm searching for a sketch featuring two door to door insurance salesmen, pitching to an elderly couple.

As the junior agent fails, because the elderly couple would rather spend the money on a holiday. The senior agent begins the pitch again,this time challenging the elderly male, "why is he not going to finish the job". After sacrificing during the war, he might pass without leaving anything for his wife, and then she wouldn't even be able to buy soap!!

I'd be grateful if this rings the bell for anyone, to know who this was?

Cheers
Peter

For some reason this strikes me as Fry and Laurie sketch, most likely wrong though.

I was thinking the same, they did a lot of stuff like that

But I don't think its F&L...
