"Kung Fu Kapers" is an episode of the award-winning British comedy television series The Goodies. It is especially known for causing a viewer to die from laughing.

This episode is also known as "Ecky-Thump". It was written by The Goodies, with songs and music by Bill Oddie.

Tim and Graeme are attempting to learn Kung Fu in the Goodies' office, but Bill is extremely disparaging of their techniques, and shows them that he knows some rather impressive martial arts skills of his own. Under pressure from the other two, Bill reveals himself as a master of the secret Lancashire martial art known as "Ecky-Thump" – which mostly revolves around hitting unsuspecting people with black puddings while wearing flat caps and braces.

Bill agrees to demonstrate this "ancient Lancastrian art", with great reluctance, in a series of bouts against Tim and Graeme (who pose as various martial arts experts who are "foreign members of their families"). Bill wins against every "expert" merely by hitting them over the head with the black pudding (except the Scots one who is knocked out by a wayward boomerang). Tim ends up with all four limbs in plaster, in a "kung-fu" style stance, so he will be "ready" if Bill comes back. Graeme points out that Tim can't actually move. Bill has meanwhile opened a profitable Ecky-Thump class, and subsequently stars in a series of Martial Arts flicks, such as Ecky-Thump Meets Mary Poppins and Enter With Drag-on.

The night before Bill and his Ecky-Thump "army" are to go on the march to attack with their black puddings, Graeme adds a "remote control device" to the black pudding mixture – leading to unexpected wayward black puddings for a bewildered Bill and his equally bemused Ecky-Thump followers.
