Deaf woman signs most ridiculous song, EVER
Almost certainly GC, but it gave me a hearty chuckle today so I thought I'd post it again.
Yes, it's "Put A Donk On It", but with a woman in the bottom right-hand corner, signing the lyrics and having a ruddy good time doing it.
I particularly like the bit where she signs "Donk da-donk donk donk donk donk donk"

that is really good. Especially since I don't think I would have lasted 15 seconds without the BSL. I'm assuming it's British Sign Language. Does anyone know?

Don't know for certain
My BSL is very patchy to say the least as I've only really used Makaton, but this does look like BSL to me.
I think the donk-a-donk-a-donk thing is what you sign when there isn't a sign for the word you need. The signers on the Spice Girls tour back in the day had to do something similar for "Zig-a-zig-ah!"

they had signers...
on tour?
When I go on tour I want to take sign language, Warlpiri, and Navaho translators on stage.
I hadn't heard of Makaton- just looked it up. Cheers

It's BSL. *[citation needed]

It's also MAGNIFICENT!

That's a good point... by the way, not to be pedantic, but I think you meant "pedantic" :P

Aren't most people hired to do signing of regular hearing?
Then again, she might just be reading it...

I love the signed shows
Sometimes when I'm too lazy to actually *go* to bed, or on C4 at the weekend, I'll watch the random signed repeats of shows - they're brilliant fun. Hollyoaks has a whole different storyline.

I'd love to see massed BSL 'Put a donk on it' become this year's rick-roll.

I had no idea sign language was that effective.
It really adds to the donkage.
