I do remember Bruce Forsythe's Generation Game and the "plays" put on by the Balls Pond Rd Amateur Dramatic Society.
And I was once taken to a pub called The Entertainer on that thoroughfare to hear quite a good band. 
The Phantom Sporran Fondler of the Balls Pond Road! Wow! Lots of classic UK hmour sources being conflated here.
I think there was a Goon show script called 'The dreaded batter-pudding hurler of Bexhill on Sea.' - written by Spike Milligan.
There was also a Two Ronnies serial called 'The Phantom Rasberry-Blower' also written by Spike Milligan.
There was also a Peter Sellers comedy record track 'Auntie Rotter' which mentioned the Auntie Rotter Home for Oprhans, Balls Pond Road, London.
Have I missed anything?
Best regards
