You're shitting me, right?

They've made a movie out of the Magic Roundabout? Who's playing Zebedee?

No, it's quite genuine. I'm not sure who's doing all the voices, but Jim Boradbent's Brian, Joanna Lumley is Erementrude, Kylie is Florence and Robbie Williams is Dougal.

And I believe Tom Baker is voicing a character called ZeeBadDee. No idea on Zebedee.

Not that I have any clue what Magic Roundabout is, but Richard O'Brien is voicing Zebedee.

I love that man.

The Magic Roundabout was a short kids animation that was an essential part of the childhood of any Brit kid growing up in the early 70s.

"Time for bed," said Zebedee.

The Magic Roundabout was a French children's TV series brilliantly dubbed into English by Eric Thompson (father of Emma).

He just made up new stories to go with the visuals, creating a surreal world that was part of any British child's life in the early 1970s.
