The three-and-a-half-minute sketch is set in the fictional Green Midget Cafe in Bromley. An argument develops between a waitress, who recites a menu in which nearly every dish contains spam, and Ms Bun who does not like spam . She asks for a dish without spam much to the amazement of her spam-loving husband. The waitress responds to this request with disgust. Mr Bun offers to take her spam instead and asks for a dish containing a lot of spam and baked beans. The waitress says no since they are out of baked beans; when Mr Bun asks for a substitute of spam, the waitress again responds with disgust. At several points, a group of Vikings in the restaurant interrupts the conversation by loudly singing about spam. The irate waitress orders them to shut up, but they resume singing more loudly. A Hungarian tourist comes to the counter, trying to order by using a wholly inaccurate Hungarian/English paraphrase book (a reference to a previous sketch). He is rapidly escorted away by a police constable. The sketch abruptly cuts to a historian in a television studio talking about the origins of the Vikings in the cafe. As he goes on, he begins to increasingly insert the word "spam"\ into every sentence, and the backdrop is raised to reveal the restaurant set behind. The historian joins the Vikings in their song and Mr and Ms Bun are lifted by wires out of the scene while the singing continues. In the original televised performance, the closing credits begin to scroll with the singing still audible in the background.
