They go after all sorts of religious and new age nonsense on their show. I spent wasted a good part of yesterday watching the first two seasons of the show in their entirety.
They had one skit of a couple looking to buy a used wardrode at a yard sale. When the proprietor informs them that the wardrobe has a portal to Narnia, they ask if they can take a "test ride".
SPOILER ALERT: (I couldn't figure out how white out the text; the "font" tag doesn't seem to work here in the comments.)
Moments later, they emerge from the wardrobe in full medieval/fantasy attire announcing how they'd just spent years in Narnia. But then they decline to buy the wardrobe because "it was a bit too Christian for their tastes."
I think my favourite so far is the Nazi uniform one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JEle_DLDg9Y
In the tradition of "Dave Allen At Large" (remember that one?).
My favorite one is "History Of Numberwang", namely Colosson's rampage.
"I AM COLLOSON! I AM NUMBERWANG! THE WORLD IS NUMBERWANG, THEREFORE I AM THE WORLD! YOU MUST ALL DIE!!!"

Try Dara o'Briain for some more chuckles- I love his comparison of dieticians and nutritionists to dentists and toothyologists
