This film is so well directed. It was great when I first watched it and it's still great now. Just a shame we don't see it on mainstream tv channels.... Can't you get a sponsor to pay for an advertising slot on ITV and Five? Everyone does seem to be jumping on the green bandwagon now.

[GreenpeaceUK]

If only... sadly a restictive advertising code currently prevents Greenpeace from running TV ads - apparently we're 'too political' or something.

Does anyone know whether the actors involved did it for the cause, or were just paid like another job ? I'd genuinely like to know if they were in it for the right reasons.

[GreenpeaceUK]

Thanks for the question. The answer is that they did it because they sympathised with the message, not because they were paid. We don't have any spare cash to buy celebrity support, and would't even if we could - unless celebrities genuinely believe in an issue then their support is easily exposed as fake - and hence worthless (remember Naomi Campbell and the PETA anti-fur campaign?)

We did not evolve, we were always human and always will be human, if evolution was real (which it isn't) we would still be evolving and we arn't.

ps. The worst thing were doing to the planet is littering, cut down on packageing and things will get much better.

[GreenpeaceUK]

maybe you are right (on a personal level)- you do sound remarkably unevolved.

I like the blue bits...

To the people that find alien theorists “laughable”, well your arrogance is one day going to kill you. Who are we to believe that our planet, one of the youngest in our galaxy/universe, is the only planet supporting life? Heck, it’s already a KNOWN fact that life DID exist on Mars.So yeah, if you’re the one laughing at alien/ufo theorists, then you’ll be one of the first casualties, because your arrogance and ignorance has blinded you and led you to believe something totally unbelievable.;o)

about aliens!

[terfle1106]

What about the planet Primrose, in the galaxy of the Gayclapped-Moonjumper ? These little aliens are called "pinkies". They use psychadelic space ships with " universal gum " written all over their space suits. They come to earth to spy on "the badies", you know, those fat yellow submarine people (the Yellies) responsable for over fishing our seas... Duh !

the economic recession or depression, will force us all to make simpler choices: one phone per family (just call back when you come back from work, like we used to do not long ago)wash dishes clothes and body with the same old big white soap (remember?) and hang them to dry outside. Trash the tv cable , enjoy walking in the park and watch the sunset.

Digging this short! I wonder what it would take to get Eddie Izzard to do a reprise of this role....
