I've never seen this series before (I was only 2 when it originally went out!) so thanks for sharing that link Mr Mathias. Rik Mayall really is on top form here, isn't he? His performance, voices, everything. Oh and I love that legged chair! I want one. That was FANTASTIC!

Oh and I love that legged chair! I want one.

Very glad you enjoyed it Mr King. There's a definite dose of Jackanory. There's also a teaspoon of "Noggin The Nog" in there, which was of course produced and narrated by local genius the late Oliver Postgate in a Blean-based cowshed. It occurred to me once I'd started the drawings that both this Nasrudin animation and "Noggin The Nog" were visually inspired by the Isle of Lewis chessmen. Here's some wonderful Noggin, from a bygone TV age . . . http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jisqle37uWI Funnily enough, I DO remember Rik Mayall's turn reading "George's Marvellous Medicine" on Jackanory. Although I have far stronger memories of him reading on a similar (but cooler) CBBC programme called "Wham Bam Strawberry Jam," which I can't seem to find on YouTube, but which I definitely recall. Why thank you. Very glad you enjoyed it Mr King.

This is a brilliant little story, and the accompanying video is just perfection. Good references to Canterbury and projects of old! Brings back memories of Jackanory...which apparently Rick Mayal did an episode of! Shit the bed, i missed that one! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iCvg_y-jgpI My my!
