Ello all,

Was just having a look online to try and find the Navy's spoof to Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody (follow up to the Army's Armadillo one!) and discovered that it was done by the crew of HMS Campbeltown! Here are links to the articles and to the video itself:

Right Logs - that's the Army and the Navy. What about the RAF??

Exactly what I was thinking WC1! :lol: Am trying my best, but so far my attempts at persuasion have failed. There were requests in RAF News, but as far as I know no-one has come up with anything. I guess Top Gun covers are a bit cheesy, but I'm sure the boys would welcome any suggestions of what may be appropriate/humourous! :?

That's excellent! I'd not seen it all the way through before.

Cheers

Have emailed the Courier about it so hopefully they will put a link in next week's paper :D

Just a thought, Davie, but why not put the file on the VistKintyre website for download? Aside from anything else it'd generate a bit of extra publicity for the website.

Cheers
Gary

Sounds good! I also have a copy of the video on my computer, so if the download link ever stops working let me know and I can upload a copy onto my website for download that way :D

Thats the first time I've seen it all the way through too .
It's brilliant , Thanks Logs.
I've E-mailed the link to Brian May at his Website , but I know he is on tour in America at the moment so I hope he gets to see it .
By the way if anyone out in America is going to see Queen and Paul Rodgers , I'm sure you'll enjoy the concerts as much as I did .
Just a further note I've just realised that it will be 30 years next month since Bohemian Rhapsody was released . How time flies , has there ever been a better record released ?
Cheers
