When I downloaded it I inadvertently clicked on the mp3 option instead of mp4a.

They sounded like the Chipmunks.

The sad thing is I listened for a minute and a half before deciding it wasn’t deliberate.

Third comment in row…Merchant has even got his own myspace site.

I think I’ll send him a message and see if he responds. After all, Barnaby Joyce did.

Oh, and Ricky’s co-writer/director is Stephen Merchant, not Stephen Marchant.

Oh, it’s a very chic Melbourne thing.

It’s the new black.

In other words, I don’t know how to fix it.

That’s about right. Of course, since they switched to electronic typesetting the beloved typos of yore are few and far between.

Grauniad…

That takes me back. Private Eye mag, circa 1984?

Hey Darlene, love the blog. Just one thing, though. Are you seeking treatment for that lipsynch problem or is that, you know, a Melbourne thing?

Yeah!!!!!!!!!!!!

Big time thrill except my ipod is dead as an ipod whose battery stopped working after less than a year.

Hopefully I will still be able to download.

I tried to download the earlier Ricky poddies via can’t remember but I had to pay (starts with A…Audible) and it didn’t work.

Ricky rules.
