The "Victor Meldrew" Song
rras...@my-dejanews.com
Victor and his wife are forced to listen to in the middle of the traffic jam?
You know the one: the garage mechanics recorded it on one of Meldrew's tapes
and it's about what a pain in the butt he is.

I'm going from memory, can't remember it all, maybe someone else can fill in the gaps?
"There's a bloke/we can't stand any longer/Always on the bleedin' moan/Every time/We fix his
bloody Honda/he's there grousing on the phone/First we fixed his car's ignition/checked his
brakes and ? and then/overhauled his whole transmission/He just brought it back again!
"Victor Meldrew/Victor Meldrew/He can stick it up his bum/Up his bum/He can bugger off to kingdom
come!".
Or something like that. My favourite One Foot episode, but sadly not available in North America
:(

Or what about that episode where Victor catches his foot on a rotting
hedghog. Now that was amusing.
In the states, I've managed to find (limited) videotapes of One Foot in
the Grave , retail at many Border's Books and Music shoppes.
