What Do You Think, Squashy Legs?

Of course, you realise this is all [profile] shaggycub's fault.  About 5 years ago, he had a copy of a video that included French and Saunders's "Whatever Happened To Baby Dawn?"  That weekend, we headed off to Provincetown for the Boston Gen-X Bears annual (November) trip, including sitting in a hot tub in the pouring rain at midnight...  But I digress.  Anyway, a copy of "Whatever Happened To Baby Jane?" arrived on my doorstep and the only image I have in my mind is of Colin sat at the top of the stairs in our guest house wailing "Jaaaane... Jaaaane!" as I can-can down to the lobby...

I love, love, love French and Saunders. I only wish we'd get them on BBCAmerica instead of endless reruns of Cash in the Attic ([livejournal.com profile] jedibear calls it Crap Grandma Left Us

Wow, I was just thinking about that myself recently. I was trying to add that "F&S" reference to the imdb entry for "Baby Jane", and couldn't seem to. I really should get the new "Baby Jane" DVD, the original DVD release that I have was about as craptastic as the other WB releases. Riddle me this, Batman? Why did the VHS version of "Baby Jane" have a trailer, and not the DVD-I still can't wrap my mind around that one. Ah well, at least we've been spared a DVD release of the Lynn/Vanessa Redgrave version of that movie, made for TV. Now THAT was craptastic.
