This sketch, from 'At Last, the 1948 Show' starred Tim-Brooke Taylor, John Cleese, Marty Feldman and Graham Chapman.
It portrays the briefing of undercover police disguised as provocatively dressed women.
Its humour lies more in the highly unprofessional acting than the script itself.
There's fluffed lines, ad libbing, corpsing, impromptu prompts and general anarchy. The outbreak of female aggression by Marty Feldman's character is particularly inspired.
Despite its title, the series dates from the late nineteen sixties or early seventies, and technical quality is poor. However, I think you'll find it worth investing five minutes of your time.
