<div>According to a sketch in a comedy show from
so long ago I can barely remember it, the source</div>
<div>of the River Thames was traced to a dripping
tap. Which was fixed and the river dried up.</div>

<div>It was an isolated sketch, whereas Goodies had themed

ECCLES: Two hundred and eighteen miles long, ayy <br>
<br>
BLOODNOK: And you know it's thirty yards wide <br>
<br>
ECCLES: Thirty yards wide <br>
<br>
BLOODNOK: You see he has the answer to both questions <br>
<br>
SEAGOON: Ahh, you know how wide it is, you know how long it is. But!
Can you tell me where the source is? <br>
