Summary: Tony appears in two sketches - one for Little Britain and one for My Family.

My Family sketch description: It's a dark and stormy night and Ben and Susan Harper are in bed. The various members of their family come in, afraid of the storm, and get into bed with them. Son Nick has just come from a celebrity party and many of the celebrities, including Anthony Head, follow him and climb into the bed, afraid of the storm as well.

Little Britain sketch description: The establishing shot shows the PM returning from a week at a NATO conference. Sebastian greets him by jumping into his arms and wrapping his legs around the PM's waist.

Inside 10 Downing, Sebastian and the PM are having a meeting with the chief admiral. The admiral is concerned about defense and urges the PM to come to Portsmouth and spend some time on a vessel to see the need for new ships. Sebastian thinks this is very clever and accuses the admiral of planning to get the PM on a boat, ply him with rum and get him into a hammock. He knows what sailors get up to. The PM says that's enough and asks the admiral to continue. The admiral wants to extend an offer to come on board a ship - which Sebastian thinks is so blatantly obvious. The PM wants to check the diary for the following week, but Sebastian insists they are busy. The PM insists and Sebastian says he can go if he wants, but he better not come running back asking fro Preparation H. The PM tells Sebastian to leave and Sebastian flounces out. The PM sits on the edge of the desk next to the admiral, apologizing for Sebastian. The admiral responds by saying that they wouldn't have to share the hammock as he runs his hand up the PM's thigh.
