Sock Puppets & "Darleks"


I was going to blog more about energy saving light bulbs but I was listening to Dean Friedman's Real American Folk on t'internet and heard this lot guest doing a very funny version of Letter from America. This isn't it- but it does involve Dr. Who...

Energy saving light bulbs - I confess to ahving them all over the flat now. It's the light they give I actually like in the evening.

I've had them all over the house (& outside) for years now apart from the ones on dimmers in the lounge uplighter and bedrooms. The colour rendering and ligh quality has steadily improved with the better makes.

I love the sock puppets! I can't believe I've never seen these before.

I suspect I'd have to watch Dr. Who to really get it, though.

Is this some kind of Scottish insult?

Very amusing with the sound turned off.

CC, as far as I know, the man is Scottish. (Dean Freadman told me there was only one of them, but how well he'd be able to tell he was actually Scots I'm unsure, being a New Yorker). The Producer is Kev Sutherland, the Beano artist. I'm sure D.C. Thomson wouldn't like it if it was regarded as offensive to Scots.
