Theo Astley

Theo Astley
In the spirit of the great Rick Rolls... this is a few seconds of Rick Astley's "Never Gonna Give You Up" video with our Theo bobbing on top (a bit too high, I admit - suggestive of a really long neck, but a necessity because of Rick's really big hair in the original)... I have to admit that this is not my idea; it was a friend who suggested the juxtaposition. For use in later videos (and indeed still pictures), that same friend painstakingly digitised a chin for Theo, which definitely opened the door to more creative endeavours, and avoided the issue of the 'ghostly third hand' seen here. But here, it's a decently creepy thing indeed (and here we are at Hallowe'en), and I think gives it a certain charm.
