Life and love and happiness...
A rousing video for you all! It has a lot to answer for in terms of sowing the seeds of my interests to this day.Sit back and enjoy !
Wow, what a flashback. I remember that from its original UK airing, though I was too young to really understand it at the time. I was terribly disappointed that the last time it was shown it had been redubbed into a childish spoof, and it's a shame it's never been released on DVD.
Ah, how could we forget. The tune is still in me head. :)
It's available on DVD. See http://www.amazon.co.uk/Flashing-Blade-Complete-DVD/dp/B00005LW4C
And it's only a fiver. (you can also buy Robinson Crusoe, Belle and Sebastian and those weird German thingies Tinderbox and the scary other one.) I must find the box and watch FB again.
