Zanzibar

[anteros_lmc]

I'm trying to write part of a book chapter about Indefatigable midshipman Henry Hart. As well as having a long and successful naval career, Hart was knighted for his diplomatic services, which included a mission to the Imam of Muscat in Zanzibar.

All I can think of though is "Off to Zanzibar to meet the Zanzibarbarians!" *headdesk* I'm never going to get anywhere at this rate...

Muppets do Indefatigable! Starring:

Camilla as 'the chicken' ('put the chicken down Styles.')

Beaker as Oldroyd

Kermit as Horatio

Miss Piggy as Mrs Mason

Fozzy as Archie

Waldorf and Statler as Capt Hammond and Lord Hood

I suppose that was not much help, really. Maybe you have some other casting ideas...

A nice glass of muscatel ought to help.

Reminds me of this excellent video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nBqMv-ElRUQ. Happy distractions!

ROFL! Perfect casting. Especially Beaker as Oldroyd. And Kermit soooo is Horatio XD

Though kittycallum is right, aoupleofnutcases has already cast this film. See link below ;)

Big fat ugly baby eating... They really don't like girls do they?

*** Just got sidewased watching three more vids. I really like 'I want to talk about me.' The editing is so clever and crisp.

I am a complete sucker for fan vids and I have huge admiration for those that have the talent and skill to make them. I wish I could!
