| her name is rio | |
i finally found it, one of my favourite comedy sketchs ever! the scene opens in a rural english animal sale ('mart' as we called them) with all rural english farmer folk standing around waiting for the sale to begin. after a little while the 'herd' is brought out, and its a herd of six 'new romantics'. the bidding starts and a lucky farmer buys them.
he gets them home and all stabled up. then he gets some recording equipment and set it up at their stable door. he then says "name rio" and slowly the new romantics respond and start to sing duran duran's "her name is rio" song. then cut to next scene and the farmer is selling mix tapes at the local market of various new romantic songs. brilliant stuff.
bbc: "big train" season 1 episode 6.
