Just gorgeous, and the songs not bad either!

I do wish they had of recorded the Australian Mikado. Not to take anything away from the NZ Essgee productions actors derek and Terri but its not the same without helen and simon. i wish they would something like the merry widow or Forum again or even pinafore.

Oh, how could I ever leave her out? The chemistry between them is obvious in all their performances together, she a brilliant soprano, him a top-notch tenor.

Their is a trio of Gilbit and Sulvin musicals that Simon, John and Helen did. (H.m.S pinfore, Pirates of penzance and The mikado). During A scence in Pirates of penzance (Paradox) John really really bazare things that had nothing to do with the stroy line, to try and see if Simon would laugh...He diden't it set off another actor though. :P. All their preformacec make me laugh. :P.

I have been searching and waiting a WHALE'S age for clips of this Essgee Gilbert & Sullivan performance!!! Simon Gallaher doesn't disappoint, as usual. John, well, he pretty much admits his status at the end of this clip, and I think he speaks undeniably truthfully! The two make a very good contrasting pair. I like'em both!
Don't forget Helen Donaldson!! Her's and Simon's voices compliment each other well. All of Simons productions are brilliant and stand alone in their brilliance.

But of course, Simon and Helen were like a modern-day Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers, and three's a lucky number.
If they had taped all of them with the same cast, I bet the videos would've sold thrice as well. But, Terri Crouch and Derek Metzger did do a good job in their own right.
I heard positive reviews about the Merry Widow and 'Forum. My favourite cast member of all is Jon English.
