First Google hit is Wikipedia:
"Timothy "Timmy" Mallett (born on 18 October 1955, Marple) is a TV presenter and broadcaster who achieved cult status in the UK on Manchester's Piccadilly Radio and then later on TV-am. He lives in Cookham, in Berkshire. Mallett is most notable for his striking visual style, involving loud shirts, colourful glasses and the giant pink foam mallet, labelled Mallett's Mallet that he carries with him, sometimes hitting children on the head, as well as his 'utterly brilliant!' and 'bleurgh!' catchphrases."

I believe the connection to the video is Mr. Mallett's looks, as described above and portrayed pittoresquement here:
