* [[Camera Abuse]]: In an episode of ''The Kenny Everett Television Show'', Kenny tells the handheld camera operator to "c'mere". The operator obligingly rushes toward Kenny, and we see his face getting bigger and bigger - until it suddenly drops out of sight as the camera apparently hits it. |

As the two stumble through multiple crack-ups and retakes, a stream of bizarre characters walk into and out of one of the stalls behind them, until eventually they notice and [[Corpsing|break up in laughter]] at the sight. |
