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

Another video where the concept was stuck going round and round in my head until I could get it out into my computer.

If you haven't watched "Toast of London"... watch "Toast of London"

Cheap flights.

Use of the f word warning. Well sort of the f word.

Many years ago, I saw a breathtakingly beautiful film of Anna Pavlova's Dying Swan, reproduced by a marionette. I have never been able to find it since. Can anyone confirm that it really existed and where it can be found today? I would love to see it again. It was really old and fuzzy in black and white, but so are the videos of Pavlova herself.

I loved those Saturday Night Live Harry Potter parodies (following Rosa's link)

Thought this was a skit, till I remembered some 1980s music videos really were that dire. Then it was somehow even funnier.
(Even better if you know anything at all about karate).

Ouch!

(Was that a Rhea Perlman cameo?)

Who's Rhea Periman? (Sorry to be so ignorant!)

It did remind me of a great music video skit by...er... (can't remember)... those Brits of Indian extraction who did a BBC radio comedy series in the 1990s ("Going for an English", etc). (Their video featured some Holy Man jigging around with the beat).

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhea_Perlman

Rhea Perlman is an actress most widely known for playing Carla Tortelli on Cheers (1982-1993). She's married to Danny Devito. In the Karate video I thought I saw her face right after the "dog with a karate bone" (around 3:30), but probably not.

Oh yes, I remember her well (just couldn't place the name).
I must watch it again!

Ah - think I saw her (just after the dog?)

An unusual cover of Donna Summers' 'I'm in Love.'

That was... "fun"...




But I needed a palate cleanser after that.

Here's my favorite cover of that song.

Turn up the base.

Oops!

Here's the linkee!
