UK dopers beware, Kylie = Florence. Robbie = Dougal. Non Brit-dopers will have no clue what this post means.
Hmmm… Doesn’t look hopeful then (even though I quite like Robbie and Kylie, in a general sort of sense) - Magic roundabout works because of the deadpan narration - if the characters speak for themselves, a huge portion of the charm is eradicated.
Oh my God!!! I feel like Homer in the Mr. Sparkle episode!
When I was in London in summer of '00, I bought my then-girlfriend a sexy little tank top with that dog on it. I had no idea that he was part of young Britain’s collective childhood memories, and humbly apologize for my now-fiancée’s delightful bosom making me think dirty thoughts whenever I see that dog.
Somehow, I knew as soon as I read the thread title that this was about Kylie (Minogue) and Robbie (Williams) starring in a crappy remake of something called “Magic Roundabout” which you clearly treasure. Don’t feel so bad - it’s been happening to us here in the U.S. more and more these days. Any week now, Limp Bizkit is going to do an entire album of Led Zeppelin covers, and I’m going to have to burn down the record company’s headquarters.
