Unmistakably yes, a 70s haircut and sideburns may date it, and the voice and modulation stay the same, capable actor he was in true farce form to play the fop of this running gag.
I can remember the format and the only character’s name that leapt out at me was, “ Pudding” attributed to the former child actor in the cast answering the door to “Captain Beaky” writer Jezzer Lloyd.
Hi, ta for that, but in the interim, I've Googled the show...coincidentally, she also played another character called 'Pudd'n' in a different show- talk about typecasting... this show was another victim of the dreaded tape-wiping..suppose we should be grateful this clip survives...

It was purposely done that way.
Awful....but somehow good all at the same time. Harking back to a world lost forever
Apart from Lummers, who were the rest of the cast? Some recognisable faces, but putting names to them is a prob...
"Pudding" was the actress who played the schoolgirl Mary Macgregor in the film The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie.

....named Jane Carr- and it was 'Pud'n', not 'Pudd'n'- in a US animated series from 2001....
@@mjones4083 Her name is Jane Carr. Went to the USA which is why she's rarely on UK TV.

French intellectuals…
