Apologies. You mentioned the Moores earlier in the thread so I assumed...
She was integral to the original mainstream patriarchal protest in popular "Yank" culture.

You are correct I was not familiar with Mr. Yarwood. I'm reminded of Austin Powers.
I edited my post to add stuff while you were posting. My apologies even though there's no need for me to offer an apology. The moors stuff was about the difference between "mores" and "moors". We can leave that behind us unless someone is so obsessed they bring it up again. I did look her up and found a video near the top of the search that seemed to be a decades-old version of Frazier and wasn't too funny until the very end:
I have to say I really don't like the Austin Powers movies. While there are certainly many very funny scenes, the humor is just a bit too much like Benny Hill for me.
