The Rutles

on BBC Two England

The semi-legendary life story of the pre-fab four -
Dirk, Nasty, Stig and Barry -as told by Eric Idle
Michael Palin , Neil Innes Mick Jagger , Ron Wood
John Belushi , Dan Aykroyd Gilda Radner , Bill Murray 'Let it rot', 'All you need is lunch' and 'W. C. Fields forever' -just three of the numbers in this story of Rutlemania. Any resemblance to another famous pop group success story is of course entirely intentional.
Written and conceived by ERIC IDLE Music and lyrics by NEIL INNES
Directed by GARY WEIS and ERIC IDLE An ABOVE A VERAGE/IDLEWEIS production
