This was amazing--the impressions were dead on, and the whole E! parody was hilarious. What is this from?

He did a very good Lennon and a dead on Ringo, but the Paul impression wasn't totally there. Pretty funny.

i loved it....i thought the paul was amazing! (besides the obvious fact that he's not all old and wrinkled like sir paul) the lennon was great too.

I thought this was related to that spiritual psychic who contacted John a few weeks ago...

fucking hilarious. that guy rocks. he's on a really funny show called Look Around You which you can see on BBC America. It's produced now but it looks like a science and technology show from the late 70's. brilliant!

That 'John' was spot on! He even did the tongue-pushing-out-the-bottom-lip thing.
'Paul' or 'Ringo' didn't do the wavey double peace signs, though.
See enough Beatle interview footage and you'll know what I'm getting at.

I thought the Paul was disturbingly spot on, with the head weaving and everything.

I think I'm going to set up a series record for that show... this was brilliant.
