That one makes me laugh because my parents are/were like that - I'd be 
watching the one programme I wanted to on a given evening, and that time 
was the time they wanted me to clean my room or whatever.  30 minutes 
later or an hour earlier would've been fine, but they always - without 
fail - would interrupt whatever it was I was watching to tell me I had to 
do something /right now/.

But the funnier one is the aeroplane sketch:
