http://www.boardsmag.com/screeningroom/commercials/3421/; Very nicely done video: in 60 seconds it shows how a good looking, but real, woman is turned into an impeccably beautuful face on a billboard. The process includes makeup as well as photoshopping.

YouTube - Allo Allo! Season1 Pilot (PART 1): Oct 14, 2006 3:56pm 2 reviews humor, video, comedy, british
http://video.stumbleupon.com/?p=ahzlhka1eq; Talking about British classics, someone has uploaded episodes of the old britcom "'Allo 'Allo" on youtube, It is about a cafe owner in occupied France and the twisted plots he finds himself in. French dialogue is represented by English spoken with a French accent. In a later episode a new character enters the scene: an English spy posing as a French gendarme who speaks French with an accent. Imagine how that is represented!

BBC - BBC 7 - Homepage: Oct 14, 2006 3:42pm 11 reviews internet, radio
http://www.bbc.co.uk/bbc7/; Now that I have a flat-rate GPRS subscription and a phone that supports streaming audio (realplayer), I have been trying out various Internet radio stations during my 30-min commute each way. BBC7 is one of my favourites. Mostly replays of classics. But not having had a chance to hear the classics (like the Hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy) in the first place, they are all new to me.
