John Challis invented the laugh himself based on that of a woman who used to go to the same pub.

"....she would laugh and, if you can imagine Boycie’s laugh in a female fashion, it then made everybody else laugh, people used to come to the pub to hopefully hear her laughing.

It said in the script, ‘Boycie laughs at one of his own jokes.’ And I just did it and everybody laughed and Sullivan said, ‘Keep that in.’ It got into the scripts, ‘Boycie does one of his laughs.’ And I’ve been doing it ever since.”
