The last ever episode of Ally McBeal has just played on Channel Four. This off-the-wall series that introduced American t.v audiences to the word 'Penis' (and even showed one in the guise of Robert Downey Jr) was the epitome of American humour. The final episode, as befitted such an internationally famous programme, was filled with fond remembrances, sad farewells and plenty of tears culminating in Ally leaving Boston for New York. There wasn't a dry eye amongst the cast and the whole thing was very moving. Then the announcer between the programmes said:
Now that's British humour for you.
