At 3:09 i just noticed that young Gatesy looks a lot like Wilbur Soot...

I saw this live at the 2002 Adelaide Fringe. Met my future husband 3 months later who had been to the same show. We bought the VHS, and watched it on endless repeat to soothe our babies to sleep. Now they are teens and can recite it word for word, and pepper conversations with the jokes. "Hey mum, look over there. It's you, shutting the fuck up!"

amazing that the SS Defenseless got an origin film this year!

One of the coolest experiences of my life was as a 14 year old on Christmas in 2005. I watched this while Gatesy was present. I had just got a new guitar which I still distinctively remember Gatesy playing TNT by Ac/Dc on and proceeded to tell us cool stories about the making of this show.

Everyone's a tosser, but there are 3 slightly more

Wow! I've been a fan for years and I've never seen this! Brilliant! Hilarious! Somehow new found respect!

I had never seen this show, thanks so much for uploading it! Tripod rocks!

Gee, that night had lots of good pirate stories enough...

I'm so glad this exists. I had a signed DVD version but I literally watched it to death and can't find it anywhere to buy again. I don't even care about the quality, I'm just happy to be able to watch it again.

I've been looking for this for years!! I live in Canada so can only really youtube Tripod. How has this been up for almost a year and I not know? That was just as ridiculous as I expected it to be. I love it!

But everyone's a tosser! Do you think you're better than me?

INSUPERABLE!!!! I'm in love <3

THANK YOU! I've been wanting to see this since I saw "Ghost Ship" on SideShow.

I wish there were a place I could buy this! It's not available for purchase on their web store!!! /sob

Thankyou soo much for sharing this!

I keep finding new Tripod videos. This group is amazing. I can't believe I found them so late in life.

Scott? You wee'd, we play. A giant robotic dog that walks on water. XD

Thanks for sharing! Have just recently discovered the magic of Tripod and have just bought a couple of their albums on ITunes. They're just to good to be true... I could pretty much watch Yon do his little dance all day :D

Thank you so much for uploading this! I've been trying to find this recording for ages! And it was totally worth it. Greetings from the Czech Republic! :)

Thank you for this, I lost my copy of Tosswinkle so it's awesome to be able to watch it again! :D
