Sir Digby Chicken Caesar - The Complete Adventures Sung to the tune of the Devil's Gallop.

Sez Wikipedia: Sir Digby Chicken Caesar and his sidekick Ginger are recurring characters created by British comedians and actors Robert Webb and David Mitchell. The character originally appeared in the radio series That Mitchell and Webb Sound as Sir Digby Caesar-Salad, but later became Sir Digby Chicken-Caesar for the television version, That Mitchell and Webb Look, shown on BBC2.[1] When Sir Digby returned to radio, his name had become Sir Digby Chicken-Caesar.

That Mitchell and Webb Look is pretty funny, but it's no Peep Show (previously)

I thoroughly enjoy the Sir Digby Chicken Caesar stories and I hope Ginger doesn't have to go back on the game.

My other favourite skits are Lager Beer and Medical Drama

You're right, no Peep Show, but they gave us Garden Centre Natives.

My favorites are still Angel Summoner and BMX Bandit and Bad Vicar.

When David Mitchell gets on one of his spittle-flecked, apocalyptic rants, he is truly a wonder to behold: Football! and Your comments?.

It might be worth noting that UK users can watch the current series on iPlayer (although currently only episode 5, as the rest have expired...).

Can someone explain why I can't find all of the snooker announcers on YouTube? Seems like a bad miss.
