Tom (singing to the music): Who will buy this wonderful feeling?

Tom has a knack for music, because he can always accompany a crappy music score with a famous song, while a normal human being couldn’t possibly. The song he sings in this one is “Who Will Buy?” from Oliver! It was sung by Mark Lester (or at least, Mark Lester's character, Oliver; there's some debate over whether or not it was sung by Lester)—it’s set in a street in the rich part of London (as opposed to “Consider Yourself at Home”, sung by Jack Wild’s The Artful Dodger, in the poor part of the city) in the morning. It starts with one girl singing the song as she sells flowers, and street vendors gradually appear and sing along, until it’s about half of the city’s businesses dancing around. Oliver! is a pretty fun movie to watch (I personally love it), as is just about any musical, because you have to wonder why the hell people suddenly just break into song.

Mike: Helen Mirren enters first.

Helen Mirren is a renowned British actress who first made her name in the “Prime Suspect” mini-series. She’s been nominated for several Academy Awards, and most recently won for her role as Queen Elizabeth in The Queen. Helen Mirren is an incredibly good actress; please excuse her for the god-awful Teaching Mrs. Tingle.
