My law teacher
was today laughing at the ridiculous fictional cases that the exam boards come up with for the exams, normally basing them around soap characters and the like. She brought up the example of one paper giving "Baldrick has been arrested on suspicion of stealing turnips."
A student who sits to the left of me pipes up "HAS HE?" We laugh at her and explain that it's just a hypothetical case, and a ridiculous one at that. Teacher continues speaking...
3 minutes later, the same student chips in "So he didn't do it, then?"
We explain that he's a fictional character from Blackadder and so he couldn't possibly have done it.
The chav-tastic girl next to her then contributes "oh, I've seen that, it's got that Mr Bean bloke in it but he's someone else..."

Pillocks.
