A "documentary" on flying penguins by Terry Jones.

lol

Yes, very believable!

i love penguins.

pmsl - def showing my 8 year old, he will believe it

Lol at them landing in the jungle!

I know that this is a spoof, but they are found amazingly close to the equator for birds that we only 'view' as being snow lovers!

Can't wait to show penguin obsessed ds2 this clip tonight!

Then we are off to the southern hemisphere to see them for ourselves tomorrow! (real ones, I mean!)

.

but yes, Jackass pengwins are found off the coast of south Africa. In fact one of the largest colonies of jackass pengwins can be found off robbin island.

Boo! Hiss!

I get a 'This clip is only available for download in the UK' so all of us living elsewhere can't join in on the joke....

Saw it this morning - dd was entranced

In my pre-coffee fug I was taken in momentarily and then I remembered the date.

pmsl, it's brilliant
Want to show ds but he's all tucked in to bed with a sickness bug so isn't interested at mo!

LL is that link your own little spoof?

I love the clip where the penguins in the foreground are watching the others take off!

Can I just say that I was gutted to realise that this was a fools day joke! I caught a glimpse on the TV and thought they were brill, and during a really shite day they kept making me grin.

Oddly, there was a report about Big Ben's face changing to digital which I knew was a joke, not sure why I didn't click about this!!
