Excellent stuff, as usual.

I found this a bit disjointed. He started off by introducing the instruments of the orchestra then gave up. I got the impression that it was a badly edited version of a much longer show. The best parts for me were the theremin and the cow bells.

BTW, if you want to hear the ITN News theme without the "humorous" comments, it's here:

I agree, although it was great, it seemed very disjointed. I'd rather they just showed the full gig in all its glory. And I wish they played more of Bill's back catalogue. The whole version of Insect Nation for a start!!!

Just got round to watching this. Brilliant! Though do agree about editing thing. The man's a genius...

Part Troll was on last night. A work of comedy genius, especially the BBC News theme as apocalyptic trance. "And now ...the weather!"

An unedited version is to be released later this year on DVD
