I've only recently discovered Bob Mortimer's brilliant performances on Would I Lie To You? It was hard to pick just one and maybe this is technically too long to be a "moment" but fuck it.
Kevin Bridges buying a horse was the funniest story on there. Apparently it went on for much longer live.

Yeah, that one's great, but... I'd still take a lot of Bob's ones over it.

from the Steptoe film
If it was a talking parrot you'd better check for a tape recorder stuffed up its khyber!

Not really a 'moment', is it?

Not many of these are, really. Did he irritate you, Ray?

Not many of these are, really. Did he irritate you, Ray? No, not really. I got it, it was a meta update on the shaggy dog story, the sort of thing that Ronnie Corbett did to string out what was essential a quickfire joke. But, as he said, that sort of thing works much better in a venue than it does on film, because of the tension build, atmosphere, whatever: pluus, it was nine minutes, and actual payoff, when it came, was a a pretty feeble piece of wordplay. I'm all for painters painting about painting, or writers writing fiction about fiction, but comedians wringing laughs out of deconstructing jokes? Nah, not really. So wasn't irritated, he just failed to engage. I could see the schema.

The bloke who does those strips is some kind of genius. The artwork alone is fantastic.
