It ain't GC to me
if I haven't seen it. Enjoyed that, and, in an attempt to start an argument with anyone who wants it, I think the audio source is a very good stand-alone movie - with a beginning, middle and end - considering the sprawling, sometimes insufferable source material.

Original Ivor the Engine sketches, Clangers, the actual camera he used for the animation and A REAL BAGPUSS! Bloody marvellous.

How did that get past the GC filter?
I've recently heard it was written to prove that Italians liked any song that sounded English, so he wrote a song that sounded English but was in fact gibberish, and it was successful.
I don't accept the premise though, as I nearly always have to like the sound of a song before I'll start thinking about the lyrics. I remember my girlfriend saying "This is great - listen to the lyrics!", and I could only say "But I don't like the music - I can't get as far as the lyrics!"

Nostalgia for Victorian values is wilfully blind to the cruelty of the era.
Most of it was built on near slavery, here and in the colonies.

Victorian values
Market stalls with opium, work houses for the poor, port for breakfast in Number Ten, no employee safeguards, the Empire still existing and child prostitutes. The Tory ideal.
That's why they are forever banging on about it. They just want to relive their Eton years.

Has UNICEF not assisted them too? Can you find a specific example of a group of needy children that UNICEF has ignored?

I was in Mailbox for a week of post-uni work experience.
Got really alarmed at the racially segregated workforce, the insanity of the bosses, the pretentiousness of all but one producer, and the cuntiness of all but 2 engineers.
When I left I didn't ask anyone for references and I've never applied for a BBC job, so well done Beeb.

Our boss was ok as he knew we were only there for the week.
More or less gave us free reign and signed us off a day early as we "clearly knew our shit" and authorised 1st class travel back home all expenses. Only time ever that happened as they shut down our OB unit 1 month later therefore ending my illustrious (and short-lived) BBC career.

Walk in to the open plan office you see in the background of the news, nothing seems that out of the ordinary except for Nick Owen. Now let's walk through to
Radio resources and marvel at the whiteness. Onwards to the Asian Network office and marvel at the hundreds of brown people.
I'd never seen such a segregated bunch of people before. It was like an American prison movie or something.
