It is a nonsense (think Lewis Carol) game from the British radio comedy
being old to being decrepit. It is off the wall humour the same set of
comedians that Monty Python came from.
That was the background. It is also a social signifier. (And make what
you will of that.)
You may have noticed that we Brits like absurd humour and often pepper
our speech with references to times gone by. This is a fine example.

But let it never be said that British humor doesn't keep up with

Thanks, I had not seen that clip. It's good to see Ronnie Corbett still
working. He was in that group of comics who came to the fore in the
60's. (He's 83, you know! :-) )
