i think don't look down was recorded ages ago, before even the dog on
wheels video.
apart from performing i could be dreaming and chris geddes doing his
bobby gillespie dance, they also recorded a little piece with each of
the band members, a little biographical piece in the vein of 'why don't
you?' (an early morn old uk telly program, but lets not savage the list
with more telly reminiscence, you'd think it was all we ever did!).
	chris's piece was recorded in a football ground
	isobel's in a park, walking her dog
	stuart murdoch's in a bus station
	sarah martin put up in shelves in her new flat
i'm sure the others were there too, but i forget what they did, mick
cooke wasn't yet in b&s officially, and i don't think he got a bit in
the filming. but he did get mentioned on an album sleeve as the
filthiest mouthed of all of b&s.
