My God, I remember that! Can't remember the lyrics, but it was a great song
(and a great show - starred Tim Brooke-Taylor, Bill Oddie, and Graeme
Garden). I would bet that Bill Oddie wrote the song. These three guys
had previously worked with John Clees, David Hatch, Eric Idle, and Joe
Kendall on a radio show called *I'm Sorry I'll Read That Again*, which
Bill and Joe frequently wrote songs for (including the infamous "Persecuting
Pigeons in Trafalgar Square," which I've inflicted on readers of this
notesfile before... and I won't even go into that great serial, "The Curse
of the Flying Wombats"). I can't remember the episode where the Funky Gibbon
appeared, but the one where Bill was the crazed master of the Welsh
martial art Ekke-Thump (consisting mainly of bashing people over the
head with a black pudding) will live in my mind for some time. And then
there was the one where the world was taken over by Rolf Harrises ...
