The original spam entry, from the Flying Circus.

I think of jolly ol England and the following pops into mind:

Mr Bun (Eric)
Morning.
Waitress (Terry J)
Morning.
Mr Bun
What have you got, then?
Waitress
Well there's egg and bacon; egg, sausage and bacon; egg and spam; egg, bacon and spam; egg, bacon, sausage and spam; spam, bacon, sausage and spam; spam, egg, spam, spam, bacon and spam; spam, spam, spam, egg and spam; spam, spam, spam, spam, spam, spam, baked beans, spam, spam, spam and spam; or lobster thermidor aux crevettes with a mornay sauce garnished with truffle pâté, brandy and a fried egg on top and spam.
Mrs Bun (Graham)
Have you got anything without spam in it?
Waitress
Well there's spam, egg, sausage and spam. That's not got much spam in it.
Mrs Bun
I don't want any spam.
Mr Bun
Why can't she have egg, bacon, spam and sausage?
Mrs Bun
That's got spam in it!
Mr Bun
Not as much as spam, egg, sausage and spam.
Mrs Bun
Look, could I have egg, bacon, spam and sausage without the spam.
Waitress
Uuuuuuggggh!
Mrs Bun
What d'you mean uuugggh! I don't like spam.
Vikings (singing)
Spam, spam, spam, spam, spam ... spam, spam, spam, spam ... lovely spam, wonderful spam ...

Waitress
Shut up. Shut up! Shut up! You can't have egg, bacon, spam and sausage without the spam.
Mrs Bun
Why not!
Waitress
No, it wouldn't be egg, bacon, spam and sausage, would it.
Mrs Bun
I dont like spam!
Mr Bun
Don't make a fuss, dear. I'll have your spam. I love it. I'm having spam, spam, spam, spam, spam ...
Vikings (singing)
Spam, spam, spam, spam ...
Mr Bun
... baked beans, spam, spam and spam.
Waitress
Baked beans are off.
Mr Bun
Well can I have spam instead?
Waitress
You mean spam, spam, spam, spam, spam, spam, spam, spam, spam, spam?
Vikings (still singing)
Spam, spam, spam, spam ... (etc.)
Mr Bun
Yes.
Waitress
Arrggh!
Vikings
... lovely spam, wonderful, spam.
Waitress
Shut up! Shut up!
The Vikings shut up momentarily. Enter the Hungarian.

Hungarian (John)
Great boobies honeybun, my lower intestine is full of spam, egg, spam, bacon, spam, tomato, spam ...
Vikings (starting up again)
Spam, spam, spam, spam ...
Waitress
Shut up.
A policeman rushes in and bundles the Hungarian out

Hungarian
My nipples explode ...
Cut to a historian

Superimposed caption: A HISTORIAN

Historian (Michael)
Another great Viking victory was at the Green Midget café at Bromley. Once again the Viking strategy was the same. They sailed form these fiords here, (indicating a map with arrows on it) assembled at Trondheim and waited for the strong north-easterly winds to blow their oaken galleys to England whence they sailed on May 23rd. Once in Bromley they assembled in the Green Midget café and spam selecting a spam particular spam item from the spam menu would spam, spam, spam, spam, spam ...
The backdrop behind him rises to reveal the café again. The Vikings start singing again and the historian conducts them.

Vikings (singing)
Spam, spam, spam, spam, spam, lovely spam, wonderful spam. Lovely spam wonderful spam ...
Mr and Mrs Bun rise slowly into the air
