Milligan: It's all rather confusing really!
And from the String Robberies (my apologies if it's not stricly

Neddie: You poor Scottish fool, can't you see that the robber has
simply cut the string in the centre and pulled the two ends apart thus
giving the appearance of a missing piece. If you pull them together
again there's the missing piece.
Sottish PC: Aaarrgh Aye yee right sir! But wait, when you do that it
get's shorter at both ends!
Neddie: Gad yes! So we're not looking a missing centre pience but
rather two short-ends! Seargant, arrest all people who own two pieces
of string.

No, it's definitely "sudden piece of cardboard". The line
is by Valentine Dyall, playing the Sheriff of Nottingham
in "Robin Hood and His Mirry Mon", a special broadcast
in Goon Show series 7, and he quite distinctly says
"sudden". The dialogue is all Shakespearean
and medieval. Bluebottle has just made his entrance,
hence "sudden". "Sodden" doesn't fit because there's
no water around, and Auntie Beeb would NEVER have

Yur, I remember 'em every time I read anything about them they are
generally described as a very poor relative of the radio shows... I
thought they were very good. I was born after the Goons radio shows
finished, but I can still remember the puppets: they made an indelible
impression on me as a child, especially Eccles and Bloodnock [then
came 'Do Not Ajust Your Set', 'I'm Sorry I'll Read That Again' and
Monty Python... what chance did a child stand?], and I'd love to see

Bloodnok: Isn't it? Well, let me know when it is, I'll be there.
And in a similar vein:
Seagoon: Bloodnok this is a fine time to turn coward!
Bloodnok: I know that's why I chose it.
And in a more similar knee:
Seagoon: Plan X, what's that?
Bloodnok: First train to Dublin, then submarine to South America.
Seagoon: You're not going to run away from the enemy?
Bloodnok: There's no point in running away from anyone else, is there?
And in a slightly dissiminar set of teeth:
Retired field marshals queueing for their pensions:
Spriggs: Stand aside, Jimmmmmmmmmm. I am field Marshal Spriggs
I tell you. I want to get to the front.
Peter: You never wanted to get there during the war, did you?
Spriggs: Are you calling me a coward? You're a liar, I'm a retired coward!
"Thynne"
I think that the luvverley lass from Swindon has passed on - I read it
in an obituary somewhere.
Four pallbearers were used to carry her out two abreast.
Chris from Saska-chewing.
(Question: Does Melvyn Bragg understand Goon Shows? Watch this space.)
"Right, lads, - round the back for BRANDEEEE!" (Bloodnok, passim.)
"Pass him what?" - Eccles.
"Nurse, he's out of bed again" - Tim Brooke-Taylor, MD (who he? -
Spike.)

Indeed there are!!
In "The Case of the Missing CD Plates", number 5
of the 6th series:
Henry Crun: (to Neddie) Don't you worry, young man. We
shall have that heavy piano off you before you
can say "Jack Robinson." But don't say it for the
next seven hours.
In "The Mummified Priest", number 1 of the Vintage
Goons series:
Seagoon: Stay where you are, Major. I'll... ha ha...
I'll have you out before you can say "Jack
Robinson."
Bloodnok: (immediately) Jack Robinson. (pause) You liar!
In "The Kippered Herring Gang", number 5 of the Vintage
Goons series:
Seagoon: Bloodnok, how long to drive down to Brighton?
Bloodnok: I can drive you there before you can say "Jack
Robinson" in Chinese.
Seagoon: I can't say it in Chinese.
Bloodnok: Curse! Then we're going to be held up.
Seagoon: Bloodnok, I'll learn to say it in Chinese.
Just... just... just give me time.
Bloodnok: All right, six month's hard labour. Take him
away, will you?
FX: DOOR CLOSES
Greenslade: Six months later....
FX: DOOR OPENS
Seagoon: (in fake Chinese) Yung-ting-mateevan-hobbinton!
Bloodnok: What's that?
Seagoon: (normal) "Jack Robinson" in Chinese.
Bloodnok: Splendid! While you were saying that, I drove
you to Brighton.

Crun, to Seagoon: Don't worry, we will get you out from under that
heavy piano before you can say Jack Robinson. Just don't say it for
another three hours...

Seagoon specialised in being run over by Minnie and Henry. After the
wick in their engine had gone out, the unconscious Seagoon (who could
not hear) was asked whether he needed succour.
"Just what I need! A glass of succour!"
