Have to recommend you watch "Brian Pern at the BBC" on BBC 4. (For those who don't know, "Brian Pern" is an hilarious and brilliant parody of Peter Gabriel (and Genesis).

Apart from the fact that it's very funny anyway,the opening song contains a trivia note about Jeff which was so funny I nearly spat my dinner out laughing.

Not unless someone puts it up on YouTube or has recorded it and can upload it. The only other way is to use a VPN proxy server that fools the iplayer into thinking you're in the UK.

I love Brian Pern!

Isn't the Thotch drummer the same guy who played Tony Angelino in Only Fools And Horses?

This is may favourite BP clip -

"'Got my Mind Set on You' with From the Jam"

"Who are they?"

"It's the Jam without Paul Weller"

"I got a seating plan here. You can either go between Ann Widdecome and Steve Cram or Todd Carty and Ross Kemp."

"I'm not sitting next to that big gorilla"

"Right, I'll put you next to Ross Kemp then".

Michael Kitchen is wonderful .

Eloise: unomusette, you are so right about all of us being a tiny bit from Birmingham. I can't tell you how many times I have had the Birmingham blues and wished I could be there. Aug 29, 2024 15:01:23 GMT
