Between ourselves, I always thought the Goons got a long way with funny voices, strange noises and the comic potential of the term "batter pudding". But it cannot be denied that Sellers, Milligan and Secombe changed the genre with their comic inventiveness, surrealism and sheer cheek: the BBC once banned a scene that had the effrontery to portray the House of Commons dozing gently.
