Or perhaps Big Dawg got wetha! Or something.

Couldn't resist this. Simple proposition. Take high profile DJ and stick him in an incongruous situation. Hilarity ensues.
It's yet another example of the BBC getting things right. It's a small, almost throwaway thing. But it's new and surprising, it's entertaining and engaging. And people can and have been distributing it.
Well, it could be a little more distributable, if there's such a word. The only potential criticism of this is that I've had to do a cheeky grab, rather than embed a link. Sending a URL in an email is a bit 2003 when it comes to online video, isn't it?
In fairness, the iPlayer is beginning to allow embedding, like this Foals clip (via OU). But it just feels a bit wonky. Perhaps someone could put us straight: it's not about placating advertisers so is it a rights thing? In which case, why not offer embedding across the board (from the beginning) and disable it where necessary?
