Men in dresses has rarely been used in british comedy as a stand alone gag, but mostly to reinforce the existing joke.
Wherever MP used a man dressed as a woman to play a woman, it reinforced the ludicrousy of a situation, reinforcing the comedy. Go back and watch some of those sketches again, and imagine how different they'd be if the women were actually played by women.
