I came across this by accident long after the demise of the platform it was put out on. I know that this was done to raise money for a worthy cause, and I really hope that someone (I am looking at you Mr Reiner!) can get everyone to set aside their egos and need for the pennies (or cents) (which they obviously did initially) and release this as a dvd to raise more money for the charity.
The inventiveness of the performers and their use of what was to hand (loving the light sabre Mr Black!) was a joy to watch. I have only found various snippets on you tube and they are all my favourites - ROUS - best use of a corgi ever (can I say that?) is the one that stands out (that and the hands pushing the wee furry performer out to "attack").
If you can find the episodes on you tube then watch them, in these depressing and scary times it is "a bright star shining in the firmament" (yes that is Lena Lamont!).
If nothing else it is worth looking for the clip of Rob Reiner in bed asking Grandpa to come back and read the book again the next day - and Grand Pa is Carl Reiner.
