i'm not sure how many of you will be able to view this (its BBC iplayer, which may not work outside of the UK) but i'm sure the technical wizzes among you will figure it out,

this was probably the best done docu on NK yet - how they got away with the stuff they did, and the level of access these guys got is fantastic! short story - three danes (two of them koreans who were adopted by danes as babies) enter NK and perform in front of the national assembly doing a comedy skit (they are not comedians at all). basically they got to do an entire comedy performance despite having no training or comedy skills.... with awesome results....

theres the link, if you can figure out how to make it play, its well worth the watch....

Daveproxy.co.uk is a decent uk proxy, but the iplayer doesn't seem to be loading anything. Perhaps it's just e-x-t-r-e-m-e-l-y slow.

Nope. Just not loading.
Any codec I should know about? No install pops-up.

'UK Nova' is a torrent tracker for UK TV. I've downloaded this from there and will be watching it soon.

To the custom of the country he invited us accordingly to amuse him with dancing, singing and clownish behavior. Though we fulfilled this obligation with little talent and as little enthusiasm, our performance was to the liking of the king and his court.
