i haven't seen that clip before, i started watching it but i think it's somehow lost on me (i've never heard of that skit before lol )

the 4 yorkshiremen I know that Monty Python did it but its older than that...basically they top each other with how miserable their childhood poverty was...funny!

I completely forgot about Galaxy Quest! That is one funny movie, especially if you are a Star Trek fan. He was hysterical as the "spock" character. I have to go buy that movie this weekend. Thanks for reminding me of it. See, I think he would make a great barber.

I love Galaxy Quest and he was just brilliant in it! I'm not a massive Star Trek fan, well not a complete nerd about it anyway. I love Next Generation with Jean Luc Piccard, Data, Troy, Rieker, and all the amazing stories that came along with them. I don't mind the other series, but that one is my fav.
And yes, he would make an excellent barber.

Your acting teacher named his/her kid Sweeney Todd! What is this child going to think the first time they see the musical (Hide the knives.) That was a nice story. I love how the down under folk call school uni. That is so cool. People here can really boring about it. "I am going to school." Sounds so much better to be off to uni.

I think it's just Sweeney, but after Sweeney Todd. I'm pretty sure he's been indoctrinated into musicals from a young age. His father has an amazing singing voice. He's going to be a very smart kid I'm thinking. Chip off the old block!
Yeah, I say school too, but mostly uni. You say "I'm going to school" when you're in primary school.

Alan Rickman isn't going to be the title character that is Johnny Depp - but wait...someone named their kid Sweeney Todd??? that is cool! I know a couple that named their kid "Forest Ranger" but this is even cooler...

Tis cool isn't it? Not sure if it's Todd too but the Sweeney is definitely because of the musical.
