Benny did it first

Not sure that I've ever seen it anywhere else, but in the Gavin Blod episode (I'm not 100% on the episode but it's on the season 3 dvd) Benny pulls an Indiana Jones with a swordsman. Henry Mcgee challenges Benny to a duel and while he's swinging the sword around, Benny pulls a gun and shoots him.

Everyone wants to credit Harrison Ford for the move but Benny did it first.

A young jedi named Darth Vader, who was a pupil of mine until he turned to evil, helped the empire hunt down and destroy the jedi knights. He betrayed and murdered your father.

Also because of the "Only Fools" episode "Hole in One" everyone credits John Sulivan with creating a joke that Benny did in 1970. Which is the one about the Isle of Wight not being overseas, to which the answer is "you try walking there".
