Strange, poignant and very funny. Their reactions are great. The performances and direction spot on.

I remember seeing a similar sketch on an episode of Monty Python's flying circus, but I guess great minds think alike.

Haha! The bird walk is classic. Great film.

I use to do this with a friend I sat on her arm and refused to leave until she acted like she was setting me off to fly! OK well I'm not normall but I showed this to her and she was very shocked that there was a likeness!

So that's how the GOP got Sarah Palin ready for the 08' Presidential Campaign.

Odd and wonderful. Alice and Jacqueline are so talented!

[LiekaQueenofDarkness]

This is just... brilliant. I have no idea what category it comes under - it just *is*.

[christiemalry]

Great! Love it! It's like a less funny, less economical and less well-acted Big Train sketch...

[raveqween0x]

Haha. This is brilliant!

I don't know why this is funny. It just is. Surely the rules of comedy now need to be re- written. Brilliant.
