where did you get this?

[masterpete84]

It's from a compilation of the British TV-show "Not The Nine O'clock News". Found it on the web ;-)

Whats the name of the song?

[masterpete84]

I don't know. I don't think it has a name actually...

OMG Rowan Atkinson was a sex bomb in this one !!

Rowan looks HOT

[Anastasia910Peace]

This is quite scary. Rowan Atkinson made me surprised. I love his charming style rather than this one, but I still like him.

@PsychicChickpeas ..And here I was, thinking I was the only one thinking Rowan was so good looking in some of those Blackadders! :)

If you look closely at the end, Griff does not appear to be wearing a flesh-colored bikini bottom! lol

@joe9320 ...Actually, just type in *Hot Gossip - Walk on the Wild Side * here on youtube, and you will see what I mean. Apparently, they were also regular dancers on Kenny Everett's show, which would have been airing around the time of this parody sketch. 'The Nancy Boys' referred to the very affeminate male dancers in the Hot Gossip troupe.

@creatornat Got a link?

@joe9320 ...This is most likely a parody of a dance troupe/performance artists called,'Hot Gossip'. They had overly sexy dance routines with women in skimpy clothing, and would dance to popular music at the time. So, the joke was, most likely, that they appeared far from 'gossip' and a lot closer to 'blatant pornography'.

[PsychicChickpeas]

@vettae Rowan Atkinson is quite hot, or at least was. Edmund Blackadder, especially in 'Goes Forth', is a bit of alright indeed!

Blondie just posted a link to this from their official facebook page!

The Not The Nine O'Clock team were great at "taking the p**s", loved the show.
