In popular culture

• In "Episode 4" (series 2) of the BBC Radio 4 comedy sketch show Dead Ringers, there is a sketch called Police Crash Bang Wallop (also a parody of Police Camera Action!), presented by Alistair Stewart, in which Luke and Blubber, Professor Pat Pending, and Dick and Muttley are described as a bunch of boy racers who are flagrantly disregarding the rules of the road. They are said to be repentant, although Dick says, "Drat and double drat," followed by Muttley's snicker and laugh.
