They only have audiobooks, and DVDs, but we want the songs!

Also, is it wrong to have a bit of a thing for the dude who 'does' Dick Turpin? Blush

i love it to. i was crying laughing at the Pachacuti Incan song.

I know one of the actors (he used to have a crush on me at college) and he is still in touch with a friend.

Would IBU to get back in touch with him so i can ask him all about the series?

I want the songs too.

My favorite has to be Charles the Second. Had me laughing all the way through no matter how many times I've seen it.

I love the songs! I was looking them up on iTunes the other week to see if they were on there but sadly no. Pachacuti and Literally are my favourites. I really fancy the actor that plays Pachacuti Grin

Maybe we should start a campaign to get them released!

I've just double checked itunes too. They definitely need to bring out a cd. It would be on all the time in our car!!

Tickets for the prom sold out pretty much instantly:(

I'm using an iPad so can't really use audio capture either:(

As for my favourite? Has to be HighwaymanGrin

The songs just stick in your head, loved the boy band King Georges and Spartan High School Musical. 8yo DD2 lives the programme, and 18yo DD1 watches it too (we called it revision for A level ancient history!)

The songs are all on the CBBC website. You can download the lyrics too - so you can sing along Grin.

Here then click on Watch Clips.

I'm not picky - I'd snog any/all of them.

Ooh I'll have to have a look at Dick Turpin!

Would it be CBBC? I'll have to have a wee look Smile

Yes - it's on CBBC (not that I spend too much of my time on there, oh no. I haven't watched all the behind the scenes stuff either Blush).

YANBU. I'd buy it and DiddyDragon & DiddyCakes are far too young to appreciate it.

The Pachacuti song actually gave me rib ache I laughed so hard. Matthew Baynton is a comedy genius. Grin

Did anybody see the Stephen Fry episode? I may have had a suffusion of fangirl squeeing:)

The seated tickets for Sat are all sold out, but there are still 1000 promming tickets for sale on the day. If we weren't off on holiday the following day I'd definitely be tempted to go.
