From The Black Adder, Episode Five:
Edmund: Gentlemen, gentlemen, surely we aren't the sort of people who
believe in this sort of thing. I mean, next you'll be telling me that
washing your hair in bats' droppings stops you going bald.
Lord 2: But it's true! I couldn't find enough bats, and look what
happened![removes his hat to show his baldness]
[Later...]
Percy: No, no, really, I'm serious. Only this morning in the courtyard,
I saw a horse with two heads and two bodies!
Edmund: Two horses standing next to each other?
Percy: Yes, I suppose it could have been.
Edmund: Honestly, Percy, I bet you're just the sort of person who
thinks that sticking your finger up a sheep's bottom on Good Friday
will make you fertile!
Baldrick: That's rubbish!
Edmund: Quite, really.
Baldrick: It's Easter Monday.
Edmund: Yes, remind me not to shake your hand during a religious
festival, Baldrick.
