The BBC's bi-annual England Are Out Of A Major Tournament compilation, this time an incredibly well-made production using the majestic 'Numb', from the Pet Shop Boys album Fundamental.
Featuring the iconic tones of the late Patrick Allen, this offering from Lazyboy (Lazy B in the UK, due to people accidentally buying their CD thinking it was a chair, or something) is the follow-up to Underwear Goes Inside The Pants. It is good. Listen to it, and heed it's words.
From an episode of An Audience With Jasper Carrott, the brummie stand-up riffs on the Pythons pretty much apropos of nothing. All done in an affectionate way, mind, and all the more enjoyable for it. Warning: as this is from the 1970s, he does get a shock-value laugh from usage of the word 'bog', but it's worth persevering with nonetheless.
The full length version of the Carling England Old Boys advert. As entertaining as he is, does Peter Reid *really* qualify as one of their greatest ever players?
Or, how to use a handkerchief. A government information film on how to avoid snotting all over your fellow citizens. Quite how people who go about kicking people into rivers are 'pretty harmless', I'm not sure, but the performance of the excellent Richard Massingham more than makes up for these concerns.
The one-off Lynx advert shown in a break for the England vs Sweden World Cup match. You know, smug ZooNutsLoaded berk gets lots of women. It's like someone filmed NotMarkX's life, and put it on screen.
A marvellously creative concept for a sketch-based comedy show, performed on a single camera, with a revolving stage, performed as-live, in one take, with no advertising breaks. Duly snubbed, ignored, disliked and (finally) grudgingly transmitted by the networks. A great shame. Enjoy this while it lasts, folks.
Added to the YouTube melting pot especially so stupid American Christian Right idiots can try and campaign against it existing, the stupid American Christian Right idiots that they are.
Britons! Do not drink disinfectant! Another slice of Richard Massingham goodness, as we are told how to deal with soiled handkerchiefs. No, after sneezing in them. Filthy.
Thanks to the vigilant Fraserkatie, this clip is confirmed as dated from 1979. A gloriously slapdash way of promoting a flagship TV channel, with some shoddy animation of a pantomime horse. Aces!
