Definitely The Two Ronnies. 'That's all we've got time for, so it's goodnight from me'...'And goodnight from him'.

“When I first started in television at Granada... Sidney Bernstein said to me that the worst words ever uttered on TV were, ‘I'm sorry, that's all we have time for.’
Especially since they were always uttered just as someone was about to say something really interesting."

It's a common sign off isn't it? I remember it from Newsround and Blue Peter. Two Ronnie's was "that's goodbye from me, and it's goodbye from him" or something like that.
