“I think we've all considered pooing all over it at some point.” - Andrew Ellard, Official Webboard

This is Night Hawk

Gah, this is driving me mad!

I’ve been watching loads of the excellent ‘Allo ‘Allo recently. When René and the gang are communicating with London via radio, a certain sound effect is used to indicate interference. That sound effect is also used somewhere in Dwarf… but I can’t think for the life of me where.

Any ideas?

From 6:50 onwards - that radio interference noise.

It’s *definitely* used in Red Dwarf somewhere - but where?

Is it used in Psirens, over the Kochanski message?

Good idea, but no - I’ve just checked…

The guy playing the German right at the start of that clip - was he one of the Kaleds in Genesis of the Daleks?

Also, why are the dates all to cock on this entry?

Sorry, more questions than answers, there. I’ll have a listen now myself.

Yep! Guy Siner. Although I didn’t know he was in Genesis until you just mentioned it…

Well, it is an old article I’ve dredged up…

Is it used in Terrorform when the crashed Kryten is cutting his hand off?

I have another one for you and it’s a biggy. It may take a few listens, but in Return of the Jedi when Luke takes the X-Wing down for the first time to see Yoda. Just before he crashes into the swamp the afterburn on the engine is identical to Starbug when it is seen moving away. I’m sure someone must have heard this beofre?

Ooops, sorry I’m late. Good idea, but no - I’ve just checked. Anyone got any other ideas?

And: this clip is one of my favourite scenes in ‘Allo ‘Allo! They way it builds up to the end of the scene is perfect. And it’s the bloody pilot!

So… any more suggestions?

I’m currently working my way through the first four series of ‘Allo ‘Allo (*God*, it’s such a fucking great series), and every time they communicate with England, it drives me up the wall…

I haven’t got any suggestions yet, but i look into it. By the way a good program i used in the past for ripping ac3 files and converting them into mp3 and/or wav is “ACE DVD Audio Extractor”.

Hope this comes as some small amusement.

A clip from the upcoming The Peter Serafinowicz Show.

And what’s the noise when the water is thrown all over Michael-6? It’s the same noise that comes out of Kryten at the end of the deleted Marooned strip poker scene!
