Enjoy! |
22 Oct 09 - 03:07 AM (#2750021) Subject: RE: Dizzy Rascal, Rapper Morris! From: SteveMansfield Good stuff. On the strength of this evidence you can probably expect to see Mr. Rascal (that quip (c) Jeremy Paxman) headlining the BBC's coverage of next year's Cambridge Folk Festival ... |
22 Oct 09 - 03:09 AM (#2750023) Subject: RE: Dizzy Rascal, Rapper Morris! From: Nemesis There's a multi-layered host of visual metaphors around social justice in this video .. Ye Olde Big Issue, dated 3rd October 1842 ... maybe 3rd October (2009) is when it was filmed (?), but "1842" .. what's that about? Guessing it might be Edwin Chadwick's report: "The Sanitary Condition of the Labouring Poor" ?? |

22 Oct 09 - 07:20 AM (#2750108) Subject: RE: Dizzy Rascal, Rapper Morris! From: LesB Doesn't work for me. When I click to open the vid, the screen gets a light grey mask over it, and an 'Error on page' message appears in the corner. Cheers Les |

When I click to open the vid, the screen gets a light grey mask over it, and an 'Error on page' message appears in the corner. Sounds like plug-in misery to me - I'd guess that you've got an older version of Flash on your machine than the video player needs. To play the video you'll need to go to http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ and get the latest Flash player version - not a bad idea anyway to be honest, as there have been several security issues& exploits around Flash recently. |
22 Oct 09 - 01:26 PM (#2750385) Subject: RE: Dizzy Rascal, Rapper Morris! From: GUEST Or just cut and paste www.factoryfilms.net/music-director/wiz then click on the "Dirtee Cash" link for Dizzy and Sompting Village Morris and "Clinic/ Tomorrow" link for Rachel from SVM's |
22 Oct 09 - 01:29 PM (#2750388) Subject: RE: Dizzy Rascal, Rapper Morris! From: LesB No My Flash is up to date. I even downloaded it again to make sure. It worked on Firefox, not in IE. Mind you it wasn't worth the effort in the end & I had to turn the noise down. Cheers Les |

22 Oct 09 - 02:51 PM (#2750450) Subject: RE: Dizzy Rascal, Rapper Morris! From: SteveMansfield Having watched it again, I spotted the morris side this time ... but isn't that Seasick Steve on ukelele? (Yes I know that sounds like something from the old Bonzo Dog Doo-Dah Band number) |
22 Oct 09 - 05:10 PM (#2750562) Subject: RE: Dizzy Rascal, Rapper Morris! From: GUEST Oooooooh, Seasick Steve .. didn't spot that one .. did think the 'casting' of particular actors for different characters was spot on! |
22 Oct 09 - 05:15 PM (#2750567) Subject: RE: Dizzy Rascal, Rapper Morris! From: Nemesis Seasick Steve possible .. paused it 1'18" in, briefest of flashes ... don't think so, will ask SVM if he one of theirs? :0) Did you spot the 'Tolpuddle Lane' that they're being lead down/ away/ astray from? |
23 Oct 09 - 02:04 PM (#2751195) Subject: RE: Dizzy Rascal, Rapper Morris! From: Nemesis Hello LesB, I tried viewing this on a different/ new computer and got the same grey veil thing you described .. it's just the the PC's settings apparently |
