Yes folks. The rumours are true. The Star Wars Holiday Special (a topic of fierce discussion -at least that is how I remember it- at the September Sydney Blog Grogathon) exists. And by the wonders of the interwebs and YouTube, I bring to you gentle LP reader all ten parts as Christmas gift (and especially for Steve Edney and tigtog).
Enjoy!

I have to admitt I just couldn’t watch all of it. The part with Chewbacca’s family, Itchy, Lumpy and Malla, if funny for a few minutes.
Well, in days gone past I wouldn’t have watched the reviled thing for fear of tainting happy childhood memories of Star Wars.
But since Lucas himself has spent the last decade ruining such memories, maybe I’ll click the link. No, I won’t. Or maybe a little… No. No. *moves mouse to first video*
I had to stop the video 51seconds into part1, can’t find my Babel fish.
This *was* one of my childhood memories of Star Wars.
Awwwww, a solstice present just for me (oh, ok, for Steve and everybody else too). At the moment I can only look at the wrapping, because the computer I’m using doesn’t have a sound card. That should be remedied tomorrow.
Yes me too Mr Lefty it does.
