Long before Eric Idle decided to make the Rutles, he briefly flirted with the idea of turning Pommy- his Tommy parody- into a feature length motion picture. History has ultimately smiled on his decision but part of me still wants to see Pommy. Sure, the idea is paper thin and lacks the timeless quality of the Rutles but the Neil Innes soundtrack would've been outstanding.
Below you'll find the original sketch that played on Rutland Weekend Television.
