That's very odd - I thought I had seen the last episode, where all the characters go into hiding, but that clip is completely different!

This is the "big finale" at the end of series 4, episode 90 of the series
There are discussions as to whether series 5 is to be filmed

Here's one, sort of...

Ian Anderson was commissioned to write a musical about an ageing rocker increasingly at odds with the World. Adam Faith was going to star, but the project was dropped and Anderson turned the material he 'd created into an album for Tull.

See, you've learned something, eh?

I was just overwhelmed by Catherine Deneuve's beauty, and so he became 'some bloke'

I quite liked his bike.

Like it or loath it, Georgio Moroder's soundtrack for Metroopolis is superb (IMHO)

Pat Benatar:



Bonnie Tyler



Jon Andersen



Freddie Mercury

We Will Rock You...the musical

Following on from the Jethro Tull story behind the film

The "We will rock you" plot is suspiciously similar to that of the novella "Anthem" and Rush's interpretation of that as 2112

I love Superstar, but to have the baby murdering Herod portrayed as a camp guy asking jesus to walk across his swimming pool is just the cherry on the cake.

A threesome for @PaulB

The original version ... (Starts with tearjerker build-up, song itself at 3:35)



The more familiar version ...



And a bonus version ... (song starts at 4:05)

There's a line in that song that, under the right conditions, never fails to make me blubber. A similar reaction is also produced by a line in, for some unfathomable reason, the song 'Danny Boy'.
