One of the more famous sketches featured the cast "going out for an English" after a few lhassis. They mispronounce the waiter's name, order the blandest thing from the menu (apart from one of them, who opts for the safer option of a curry) and ask for 24 portions of chips. This parodies the often-drunk English people "going out for an Indian", ordering chicken phall and too many papadums. This sketch was recently voted the 6th Greatest Comedy Sketch.

Goodness Gracious Me - Going for an English
Goodness Gracious Me - Hindu Santa
Mr "Everything Comes From India" - A man who insists that just about everything comes from India or was invented by Indians, including William Shakespeare, Cliff Richard (who was actually born in India), Leonardo da Vinci, most English words: (Veranda, shampoo, conditioner), the British Royal Family (all except Prince Charles, whom he claimed to be African), and Superman (who is apparently Indian as he has two jobs and can run faster than the trains).
