Thanks for taking the time to post the clip - like everyone else, I think Bill did a fantastic job explaining it all. Thanks also to Dolly and Kate for doing the business (is it me, or did Wonderbra take the easy option with Kate when, instead, they could have had to contend with containing, restraining and re-aiming Dolly's lovely Dollops).
Like Bill I live in an area that can't yet receive Freeview and so appreciate the clip so much more. I hope the digital signal gets sorted soon - else in 2010 I'll be trying to watch telly through my much under-used HL6232DB Hostess Trolley (I won it in a free draw - honest. And has been on Ebay 3 times without one bid. Sits in a box along with the still-boxed and Ebay rejected Remington F7028 Footspa Sole Soother ... another free draw win - why bother entering free draws??? ... any offers?).
Oh God, I may have to pluck up courage and watch it. Everyone in the pub saw it apparently.
They cut out the cake sitting!!!??? Are they mad?? Our version is shot from the side which isn't quite as good. But will dig it out when time allows.
As a lover of all kitch 60s/70s products I would offer to buy the hostess trolley. Unfortunately I live in a house with similar physical properties to a lighthouse so everywhere is up or downstairs, something Hostess trolleys, like daleks never mastered.* The Footspa can fuck off though. EVERYONE has owned a footspa and kept it in a box on top of the wardrobe...

* I know the daleks managed it in later series...but Hostess trolleys didn't.
