'The King's Speech'



No, no, this is not that wonderful Colin Firth in the Oscar winning film of the same name. Oooh, I love Colin Firth, great actor in every role he's played.

Instead, it is (I suppose) a parody of sorts.

Killa Kela, English multivocalist and an amazing human beat box, together with Stig of The Dump and Friends sends a message to Prince William and Kate Middleton -- it is appropriately a message to the betrothed pair from a council estate to the Royal estate.

Killa Kela gets the beat going, with the wedding march, horsey sound effects and a snatch from God Save the Queen (I think). A little bit of rap with Stig of The Dump taking a poke at the pair ("congratulations to Wil-li-am but more so to Kate coz you'll be marrying into mil-li-ons), and bonny Prince Charley ("hi ladies.... do you have my space).

Definitely worth a watch, giving the fairytale a common touch. And of course, they will celebrate because they've got the day off work.
