I recently watched the Wicker Man for the first time - what a hoot! Everything from the traditional pastiche (it's all there, innit? Obby Oss, Sword dancing, Abbots Bromley, maypole...) and musical pastiche - I especially loved the deranged glee with which Christopher Lee sang Summer is Icumen In. Pretty glorious all round, really. LOVED Britt Eckland's writhing, slapping dance. That's one I've never seen at Bampton...

But the bit that really had me gasping with laughter was Christopher Lee in his Mayday costume. I don't know if it was the wig, the dress or the dancing that was the funniest.

Top hokum.
