Was something like:
In the future, two archaeologists are examining an early 21st C teapot. One of them proclaims "It's a ritual object connected to a fertility cult!"
"How do you reckon that?" asks the other.
"Well, one priest would lift the lid from the top, another priest would then drop dried leaves into the middle" replies the first.
"Right…." says the second " Then what?"
"A *third* priest then pours boiling water over the leaves and replaces the lid" declares number one.
"So how's that got anything to do with fertility cults?" Asks number two, "I don't understand"
"Well…" Replies number one smugly, "The first priest then cries 'So who's going to be Mother?'"
Apologies to Mr (not Dr) B (and whoever he pinched it off)
P.s. I'm still on the train, I got the wrong one, fell asleep and am currently passing through Latvia. Which is just as well, as it means me coat is already on...
