Yo there, champs,
After tackling a question in Episode 48 concerning Young Einstein, we found ourselves wondering: whatever happened to its splendidly-named star/director/producer/writer, Yahoo Serious? It’s a whole twenty years since that magnificent film came out, and yet Mr Serious’s CV has been looking rather sparse of late. Perhaps a clue to his recent whereabouts lies in this nugget from IMDB:
Some news reports have confused Yahoo Serious, whose real name is Greg Pead, with the antiques dealer in Sydney named Greg Pead who accused the former Royal butler Paul Burrell of having an affair with him in the 1980s. The two are not the same person nor are they related.
Frankly, the prospect of being confused with someone who actually WANTS people to know he romanced Paul Burrell would be enough to send anyone into hiding for as long as the world’s supply of tinned food can keep them.
But what to listen to while you’re hiding in a remote cave while your reputation is ruined by a former-butler-fancier? Why, Answer Me This! Episode 48, naturellement!
And keeping old Yahoo company this week are topics including:
the Essex University bunny cull
homophones
stereotypical students
old-fashioned romance
My Super-Sweet 16
John Candy
sorbitol
regal philately
2 Unlimited
weapons of mass destruction
and
Ruth Badger.
Plus, Olly looks an umbrella-bearing gift-horse in the mouth; Helen releases her girly side; and, if you thought Martin the Sound Man’s beatboxing sucked, wait till you hear his attempts at techno.
