also that hilarious country bumpkin at 5:35 "'Orse's 'Ead 'Andle!"

I love the poem he quotes at 4:04 =]

Gervase is very entertaining. But I often wonder if all the stories are completely true. I think there is a lot of dramatic licence used in his performances. But I still laugh lots.

@soundzok I think you are right. Some of the childrens' jokes in his books are apocryphal,I'm sure.

@soundzok

His books are fictionalised accounts of (mostly true) events, so it's a mix of stuff he's seen and stuff he's come up with himself. I kind of wonder if he still remembers which are which now :)
