According to a sketch in a comedy show from so long ago I can
barely remember it, the source

fixed and the river dried up.
I don't think it was Monty Python, though it might have been.
Possibly one of Python's
precursors.
Seem to remember that one!
Goodies?
Going well off topic here.
It was an isolated sketch, whereas Goodies had themed episodes. TW3,
maybe. Something like
that. The only reason I don't think it was the Python's is I can't
find it on youtube or even google. I
was beginning to wonder if I'd imagined it.
