It seems to be a reasonably straightforward syncapated five four time signature

xD

Haha, I was looking for this clip just a week ago and couldn't find it. I was on the verge of trying to upload it myself and then you come along very timely and do it instead :) Thank you!!

Hugh Laurie really cracks me up as Wooster :D

I don't think people like Hugh and Stephen particularly care for the monarchy.

... If you were to accent the words if, were and fashion, I think you´ll find that the correct rhythmic pattern would emerge. :) I heard this song in a metal night in Finland played as black metal. Weirdest sensation without chemical assistance ever!

OMG HOUSE

sorry i had to...

This scene alone is worth a couple of CBEs for the whole bally lot involved. Otherwise the New Years Honours list would not be worth the the dead trees sacrificed for the good of whatever.

I hereby plant a flag in their by now ample midsections and claim them for the Federation of Mankind. You, sirs, have been annexed.

holy crap what a sophisticated joke LOL!

[Jo Mannisto]

I can't stop watching this! Haha. Great song, and both of them are brilliant and funny.

I've been meaning to get up and get dressed for about an hour now - but one more episode won't hurt...

Epic

Minnie the Moocher was first recorded in 1931, however it dates from 1927 as a jokey version of another song that was frequently played live,

Why did I make most of these mistakes myself when I first tried to sing this??

"It seems to be a reasonably straightforward syncopated 5/4 time signature, sir."

Well, that's easy for *you* to say...
