Does anyone have a relatively high quality video of the dance that the BBC Newsreaders did for Children in Need? And if so, could they point me to a url or something?

Thanks

Sorry if this has already been posted or anything.

There is a badly resized clip of the dancing news presenters on the BBC CIN website. Below is a direct link to the .ram metafile.

It only seems to work on people with a fast internet connection, but if you are on a 56k, then dont worry because you can use the Streambox VCR to download the clip to your hard disk and play it as many times as you like without being connected to the internet.

A quick update re this problem of the anamophic clip

One you have downloaded it using StreamBox play it full screen but use your monitor controls to squash your screen to 16:9. Then it looks v. nice.

One gets this Streambox VCR by searching for it on Google. You will find a link in on a webpage somewhere on the Internet. It's a hacked copy and is technically illegal (Streambox, the company that made it got prosecuted for it by RealNetworks).

You will find link someday.
