This was one of those Cleese written sketches where the character can't speak simple English anymore for some reason. I think it was his way of deconstructing the standard sketches he knew before Python where the same words would always be said in the lead up to punchlines, and he probably got so sick of saying the same phrases this was his breakout from it.

I always had the suspicion that when Eric laughs at the 'look out of the yard joke' he only says that to conceal the fact that he actually started laughing at the sheer silliness of the 'man with very long arms'...but maybe it's jus my wishful thinking....I so want them to crack up, it's just not human to keep a straight face during that

I'm wondering whether these things are actual mistakes or due to modern video formats not cutting away the screen border like analog CRT TVs did. Even digital TV broadcast, last time I checked years ago, would have a lot more image contents on my capture card than what you saw on TV. You could see that by checking how far away from the screen edge the network logo was. There was a hospital TV show that had a mic in the picture so often that it became almost comedic.

The genesis for most of python's sketches was the fact that at this time and before, sketch shows would often have very staid lines and styles just repeated over and over for main stream audiences of the day, cleese himself had participated in many of these such sketches during his time on the frost report and so having characters unable to even execute their lines properly was their way of escaping the comedy tedium of having stock standard set ups to everything hence why many cleese sketches have characters getting bogged down in being unable to even start a sketch or wrapped up in syntax.
