ELV note: Germans find this 11 minute, 1963 British skit so insanely funny, it’s a New Year’s Eve tradition to watch it throughout the entire country. The English, oddly, do not. Then again, the English, oddly, are a pretty odd bunch…as this sketch so aptly and uproariously objectifies.

“Same procedure as last year, Madame?”

“Same procedure as every year, James.”
