Matt Holness in the IT Department in sketches from the short-lived, one-series-only sketch show 'Bruiser' (2000) starring Olivia Colman, Martin Freeman, Matt Holness, Charlotte Hudson, David Mitchell and Robert Webb.
All clips are from episode 4.

Essentially it was seen as a programming language for beginners. (And to some degree it still is.) In short: Java is wank.
