• Announcer : [Apologizing to upset viewers about the Hedgehog sequence in the "I Like Trucking" musical sketch in the previous show]  We have received a large number of complaints about a sequence you may remember from last week's program. Where a hedgehog was seen to be crushed under the wheels of a lorry. The BBC would like to apologize to hedgehog lovers everywhere for any distress caused by this sequence. But, would like to point out that the hedgehog used was in fact a stuffed hedgehog and we feel that we have proberbly exhibited less cruelty to hedgehogs per se, than whoever it is, who goes around stuffing them. If you now who these people are, then please write to us at this address. WE WANT TO KNOW WHO STUFFS HEDGEHOGS. Not The Nine O'Clock News. BBC Television Centre. Wood Lane. London West 12.
