h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

*checks his most recent copy of British Hit Singles* You're not in here, P.

That's 'cos it's an EP, not a single

have we gone back in time???

hmm.... just looking for a please.... anyone????

Oooh the Timewarp! If this is meant to be a 100th Birthday party we should way do the Timewarp...although now I recall the awful image of Jason Donovan dancing it in a thong and suspenders maybe not

BB, you want Nigel to win? Hmm at least you didn't say Damon...

As for this giraffe thing, I'm confused, how do you propose to find a voter with a large enough DVD player to fit a giraffe in? Picture the scene if you will. You promise them their DVD, their DVD arrives on Christmas morning, a small child runs up laughing with glee and happiness at the gift they've been waiting for all year. Hurridly they unwrap the paper, a smile spreads across their small face as they see the contents...but then oh no whats this, a piece of paper with a message on, oh joy a treasure hunt, how much fun to make this present last so much longer thinks the child and excitedly reads the message "sadly we could not fit your gift in the envelope so we have left it outside, enjoy and thankyou for convincing your parents to vote". Caring not for the bleak winter wind the child runs out into the lane in only their dressing gown and slippers, searching everywhere, looking all around and then they see a trail of foot prints to the grass. They look up and before them is the wonderous gift which they have waited for all year, the item which they've been promised and have dreamt of for almost 6 months...and there in it's splendour is a large 15ft high giraffe witha large 15ft high DVD attached to it's back, the giraffe shivers, the DVD breaks and the father appears and says sorry son, our DVD player only takes 4" discs we'll have to send it back...and what then. There'll be complaints you know, you'll end up on Watchdog with Anne Robinson winking at you..and what next...where would it stop, Richard and Judy, Trisha...Kilroy?

No, I definitely think you should reconsider the promotion...maybe try hamsters, they'd fit on a DVD

Our EP is called "DVD Killed the Video Star"

As for the giraffe DVD - didn't you know that DVD stood for "Tardis In A Disc" which is how they pack in the explosions etc. As the DVD is bigger on the inside than the outside, a giraffe easily fits.

Aaah the Buggles, first video on MTV that was, revolutionalised pop music...course not as much as Dire Straits 'Money For Nothing' but it was a good attempt

Anyway, I still hold my doubts about these DVD's you know, surely if they're Tardis's there's a danger of Darleks escaping and also what if the Giraffe gets lost and then when you try and load the DVD an elephant appears in it's place? That wouldn't do at all

*thinks back* Jason didnt look too bad in those stockings as far as I remember... but then again, anyone who was in Scotland on Saturday would know about my RH infatuation.....

So are we gonna Time Warp? *blushes wondering if she has finally lost it by trying to organise an online Time Warp....*

Oh has nobody else starting Timewarping yet? I've been doing my syncronised dancing in my stockings for the last ten minutes.

And yes, there is a good possibility that Daleks might come out of DVDs. That's why they have those rectangular cases.

I was waiting for confirmation on the Time Warp thing but seen as how others have agreed to be foolish too then I think we should start it right now...do we need to do all the lines at the start and who wants to be the professor bloke with the board? *thinks am I making this too advanced now*

Btw, where abouts did you get to see RH and was it the last tour? What did you dress up as ...slowly realising you may not have dressed up like I did and am now feeling foolish...er aahh ummm...

Change of subject, P you do realise that just because Darleks aren't rectangular it doesn't necessarily mean that they can't fit through rectangular holes? I think you may have been led astray by Fisher Price childrens toys, I mean everyone knew that the red triangle would fit in the yellow square hole, but just because it wasn't the correct way to get the triangle in the box it didn't mean that it wouldn't work!

*blush* yes i did dress up.... I was Magenta... its so dreamy... oh hang on... shall we start at the beginning?

btw this has convinced me to finish my RH entry.... it'll get completed soon

I saw it in Edinburgh at the Playhouse... It was an amazing production... last night, it was just so spontaneous... I've seen it 3 times now as a production and the film countless times.... and i think i know all the script, actors and audience! oh dear... what a thing to admit...

The Daleks are perfectly safe in the Tardis, to get to the only exit from the TARDIS is up a ladder, so they won't bother us at all.

Talking of ladders, hairy legs often make tights ladder, even when attempting to do the time walk.

BB... time walk??? which did you go see

and the stockings are usually holey anyway... especially in Frank's case.....

*Peregrin would sing but he's forgotten the words... somebody remind me*

tut tut... how anyone can vote for you if you dont know the words to the timewarp.....

its astounding... time is fleeting...

any of it coming back to you???

I saw a version where they altered the words everso slightly so they wouldn't get sued....

It's just a step to the left...

I made a deal over at the drive in window that I assume is effective here too. I'm providing this spectacular red wine (It's actually magic) to the F&F at a very low cost, and they've agreed to offer a glass free to anyone promising to vote for the Masque. If this is out of line for this establishemnt, please tell me so. But I think you should try the wine, first...

um... I think Menza may have a thing or two to say... apart from the poisoning, I thought we were politics free here...

and that production must have been good to watch BB.... apart from the audience shouting out their lines, I bet they were making corrections to what the cast were saying as well.. now that would have been one to see...

and btw... its a JUMP to the left, STEP to the right....

Don't we have to bend our knees now?

*Starts bendy knees and singing "sayyyyyyayayayayyy Lets do the Time Warp aggggaiiin" whilst spinning hair and waving arms*

Hmmm... anyway, I saw it at Sheffield just before Christmas I think it was and much amusement was had by all when that annoying bloke with the glasses from the double glazing adverts and possibly Coronation Street was heckled and so started a fight Quite scarily I was sat on the second row purely by accident which meant that I was sat with all the highly dedicated fans (and I mean highly, they had been to every single performance since it started touring!) who all seemed to know Jason, it then got more scary when he walked right over in front of us and attempted to flash before kissing the girls next to us...I was soooo glad I managed to duck

Anyway BB, she's right you wouldn't have a problem, the idea is to wear fishnets so you'd cope Oh and if you are going to wear tights you should buy higher denier ones and then you'd possibly get away with it...

So if there's a ladder before the exit of the Tardis how do the giraffes get out, once they got half way up they'd bang their heads and fall down again...that's assuming they can climb ladders at all, I mean stairs obviously but ladders?

*DD chrages in wearing black satin basque, fishnet stocking, red feather boa, and heels*

Hello, I heard we were doing the time warp.

*looks around*

Where has everyone gone?

Don't worry DD, there's still time for the timewarp, after all, let's do the timewarp again...

As for the Giraffes, they take the escalator out of the DVD. . The Daleks can't go on it as it is still a staircase.
