Richard, thank you that is a much fuller list, but it still doesn't nail down the original source (but does mention the possibility of British comedians of the 30's and 40's). I think this might be a popular culture thing that has been forgotten in the mists of time, I was hoping someone might say "Ahh yes that was part of such and such's radio play, or it was seen in this such movie".
