POOKIESNACKENBURGER In... HELL BENT (1985) Channel 4 TV UK
Just found an old episode of a 1980's UK comedy music show called "POOKIESNACKENBURGER" on Youtube.
The episode in question is from 1985 and is called "HELL BENT".
It concerns itself with a spoof "Black Metal" band called IRON LUNG who are recording their latest album in a haunted abbey which has been converted into a recording studio, whilst the band try to raise Satan to do their bidding.
The songs are quite amusing, although overall the show isn't quite as funny as i'd remembered.
Far better than "Bad News" though!
I did enjoy the "Wicker Man" styled pub scene.
The show only ran for one series, with each episode spoofing a different genre of music.
Pookiesnackenburger were a real band who had initially formed as a busking ensemble.
Some of their members were later behind the "Stomp" musical/dance extravaganza.
Complete credit and major thanks to tim50stroud1 who ripped & uploaded this video, had his account @ youtube hacked, and then took the time to upload it all over again. Leave the man some positive comments for all his work.
