I was wondering how long it would take before someone put something like this up.

Oddly enough, the Mrs and I were talking about all the resignations yesterday afternoon (our time) and the topic of the Downfall parodies came up. She asked where the one was which related to this. I quite bluntly said, “If it existed at all, Tim Blair or the Cat would have it up already.”

Lo and behold, that evening…

“Sweet! That’s my video.”

Editing videos is no small or swift task (mine is exclusively of rugby matches, for the coaches to analyse – isolating all scrum engagements, all line out jumps, all set piece ball clearances, tackles well made and those that should have been and the like). Inserting captions too takes time to ensure perfect placement.

Well done Steve, no mean feat.

Sweet! That’s my video. It was great fun putting it together. My favourite line was “And don’t play any Springsteen. Annabel hates Springsteen.”

I thought I’d seen enough Downfall parodies, but I was wrong.

Certainly the unpolishable McT. might have been mentioned, but what the heck.

And clearly the Roxon woman had been giving some final tips for Mein Fuehrer’s hair.

The ABC 7pm News played a section of the clip last night, but of course sans humourous subtitles. They will be spinning in the centrelink queue when PM ABBOTT sells the ABC, hopefully.

@Leigh

People trust other people more, and take them more seriously, if they are wearing glasses. Particularly so for women.
