Hmmm. Never visited that one before!

So give us the short version recap of the group: Do they like Benny Hill
stuff? Monty Python stuff? Higher brow stuff?

All of the above?

(Actually, my two favorite clips: "Bird Gone" and "Oh My God" are British
videos...)

I'm with you. "Oh My God" is one of the funniest gags I've ever seen!

Not really, that's all a bit old now.

Usual corny gags but which tend to be topical.
There was a run on Michael Jackson one liners when he was up in court eg:
What's MJs favourite after dinner sweet? Under eights (Ther is a brand of
after dinner mint called After Eights)

Goerge Bush jokes are pretty regular too. If you like Bush you may not like
them, if you dont like Bush well you will hate yourself for liking them.

Then there are the long running gags such as the blue tile or the brown
stick.

Not to sure but the favourite video is the Bird Gone. Although you describe
it as British it is new to us and has never been broadcast.

The crashes as ever prove fascinating

Really? That's interesting. It was sent to me by someone who described it
as British.

It's advertising a car that's not even sold here in the States.

Australian, perhaps? What's the car?

[Jay Honeck]

It's a "Ford Sportka".

See it at http://alexisparkinn.com/photogallery/Videos/BirdGone.mpg .

The video sure looks British to me, complete with a "UK" url.

It certainly is British. The Ford Ka is quite common on our streets in
the UK. It has been around for a while. I have not heard of the 'Evil
Twin' version but that does not mean it does not exist. I cannot see the
number plates clearly enough to be able to detect the year of first
registration.

I doubt that it has appeared on UK television, but if it had, it would
be followed by an assurance that 'no birds or any other animals were
injured in the making of this film'.

Yes, its a Ford Ka, but in the Uk there is a television show which shows
commercials from around the world, including those from the Uk that never
make it.

They would not get away with showing cruelty to an animal. I suppose it
might have been make as an agency promo.

You think that's a real bird getting creamed?

I was assuming it was all done with CG.
