Wasn't it Victoria Wood married to The Great Soprendo?
Cilla was married to 'Our Bobby'.
As for the fez etc, I'd say Arnie Schwartzenegger in his first gubernatorial speech.

Hmmm, you need a clue, I think...
He always wore this outfit. He also wore glasses and had a Hitler moustache.
Oh, and there's a QI Klaxon primed...

Adolf Hitler suffered from a lack of non-peripheral vision, so he quite literally couldn't see what was straight in front of him. For this reason, when shaving, he always left a bit in the middle of his upper lip, believing himself to be completely clean-shaven.

Rubbish ! It's where he kept his rare pet, a pygmy budgie called Niles. Notice you never see any pictures of Hitler snogging anyone. His budgie would have got crushed. Also this thing with the salute. It wasn't a salute. One night, whilst giving a little pep talk to 50,000 passers by outside the Reichstag, his budgie was irritating him by leaning over and pecking his front teeth every time he opened his mouth. Taking some birdseed from his pocket, he threw some over the balcony and said "Seeds, Niles" in the hope that the bird would give him some peace. Unfortunately, the gesture was misinterpreted by the crowd and they all copied him in a Pythonesque fashion.
