    This is an English TV sketch. An elderly man (famous English comedian) enters an oldfashioned English greengrocer’s shop to complain about his BlackBerry not working.

    When he talks about his dongle it’s an English double meaning referring to the male sexual organ.

    if there’s anything you might not understand - English humor can sometimes be hard to follow just ask me.

    Yes @Don Alaska I love it too. You can see what a hard time the guy playing the shopkeeper has trying not to laugh.

    My mother was British. When you grow up around cockneys listening to Terry-Thomas and watching Benny Hill, and retire for the evening to the sound of relatives asking if you want to be knocked up, this is your brand of humor.

    I believe there is a strong correlation between those who enjoy this, those who enjoy Monty Python, and those who "get" The Far Side.

    Years back, a cartoon depicted a person showing his Blackberry to a big dragon, towering ahead of him, declaring he had a new Blackberry. Next view showed the dragon happily munching the guy's Blackberry, claiming he had been longing for one!
