...why the fact that Talulah got her training in North Carolina would be a good thing?

Guess who's been listening to the Bugsy Malone soundtrack?

Ha ha ha ha

I don't know but it is just a funny random question!

Ha ha ha!

We could've been anything
That we wanted to be
And it's not too late to change
I'd be delighted to give it some thought
May-be you'll agree that we really ought
Two, three, four

We could've been anything
That we wanted to be

Yes, that decision was ours
It's been decided we're weaker divided

Let friendship double up our powers

We could've been anything
That we wanted to be
And I'm not saying that we should
But if we try it, we'd learn to abide it
We could be the best at bein' good guys

Flowers of the earth
Who can even guess how much
A real friend is worth?
Good guys, shake an open hand

May-be trusting
If we try to understand
No doubt about it
It must be worthwhile
Good friends do tend to make you smile

We could've been anything
That we wanted to be
Yes, that decision is ours
It's been decided we're weaker divided
Let friendship double our powers

You give a little love
And it all comes back to you
(Da da da ra da da da)
You know you gonna be remembered
For the things you say and do
(Da da da ra da da da)

You give a little love
And it all comes back to you
(Da da da ra da da da)
You know you gonna be remembered
For the things you say and do
(Da da da ra da da da)

Can I just point out that this should be pronounced "who can even guess how much a real friend is WOITH"

I'm assuming there's some sort of cultural reference. Or maybe it's some sort of bizarre rhyming slang. Carolina...Va...no...it's a children's musical Hannah...stop it.

"Does anyone know the way....to Blockbuster............."

Always thought that Bryan Ferry was ahead of his time in naming a little known video rental store... I hope someone has given him deirections by now. :-)

Thanks Marco. Helpful as ever! :wink:

Becuase Arkansas wouldn't have rhymed with "No one south of Heaven's gonna treat you finer"

Any body who is anybody
Will soon walk through that door
At Fat Sam's Grand Slam Speakeasy
Always able to find you a table
There's room for just one more
At Fat Sam's Grand Slam Speakeasy

Once you get here, feel the good cheer
Like they always say in the poem
Fat Sam's ain't humble
But it's your home sweet home

Plans are made here, games are played here
I could write me a book
Each night astounds you
Rumours are abuzzing
Stories by the dozen
Look around you, cousin
At the news were making here

Anybody who is anybody
Will soon walk through that door
At Fat Sam's Grand Slam Speakeasy

Da da da da da da
Da da da da da da
Da da da da da da

Hoo ya, Hoo ya, Hoo da da da da
See the politicians
Sittin' by the kitchen
Said he caught his fingers
In the well he was wishin'

Once you get here, feel the good cheer
Like they always say in the poem
Fat Sam's ain't humble
But it's your home sweet home

Plans are made here, games are played here
I could write me a book
Each night astounds you
Rumours are abuzzing
Stories by the dozen
Look around you, cousin
At the news were making here

Anybody who is anybody
Will soon walk through that door
At Fat Sam's Grand Slam Speakeasy

sorry, don't know...but I think you'll agree the best song is:


so you wanna be a boxer?
wanna be a champ?....................

[GJ Peck]

Thanks Neil!

See peeps - you really can Ask Collins Anything!

i've got I'm feeling fine in my head at the mo:

"...forget about sophistication
keep it simple
thats my style

Love at its best, a pleasure to make it,
A chance and a test, I'm willing to take it
If this strange new feeling is something that you're feeling tooOOOOOO...."

I'm feeling all nostalgic about when I was Bugsy Malone now...

And the night I forgot whether I was meant to say Dollars or Bucks and said £40 Ducks.

Oh dear.

Best bit's at the end when they all get covered and make up - ah bless!

You could have been anything that you wanted to be
And its not too late to change

We could have been anything that we wanted to be
Yes, that decision was ours
It's been decided
We're weaker divided
Let friendship double up our powers

We could of been anything that we wanted to be,
And I'm not saying we should,
But if we try it we'd learn to abide it
We could be the best at being good guys
Flowers on the earth
Who can even guess how much
A real friend is worth?
Good guys shake an open hand
Maybe we'll be trusting
If we try to understand
No doubt about it
It must be worth while
Good friends to tend to make you smile
We could of been anything that we wanted to be

You give a little love and it all comes back to you

You know your gonna be remembered for the things that you say and do

I wanted to be in Bugsy Malone so badly....

I think I'd have made an awesome Fat Sam. My school only decided to do it when I was too old to actually play anyone.... However a lot of my accessories (icluding my pimp cane) went towards the costume of Dandy Dan.

I did get to be in Guys and Dolls though - so I had my gangster ambition realised.

And Hannah? Forty Pounds Ducks? Thats bonkers!

Reminds me of the Gary Larson cartoon of a bunch of gangster-looking people in long flasher macs and shades, standing around in a forest with binoculars.

The caption: "Boid watching"!

[G J Katie]

Everybody loves that man, Bugsy Malone!

[Gold Double Pink Joinee Stooz]

I bet when Hannah was Bugsy Malone she actually looked like Jamie.

[PJ Hannah B-R]

nah - I had no facial hair. I did look very very butch dykish though. I was gutted. I wanted to be a lipstick lesbian :-(
