I bought the English tape, one of the most delightful British "period" comedies ever. So naturally I got the CD. But for reasons I can't imagine, many scenes are abruptly and awkwardly cut, most objectionably the final soliloquy of the soubrette, "We truly rule the world, the Sun and I." Unhappily, British CDs are incompatible with US technology. So the only way to see this marvelous movie is to locate an original videotape. It's still a wonder. But tiny executive brains seem capable of pissing in any pitcher of fresh water.

Even if you never heard Gilbert and Sullivan, this movie is still incredibly fun and entertaining. All these trash can "rappers" think they can ryme, but only Gilbert and Sullivan have the complete control of the English language and are the epitamy of excellent.

Quality of the overall acting and production is excellent. Anyone with the slightest interest in Gilbert and Sullivan should watch it. It seems that it is largely historical correct while still retaining entertainment value. Highly recommend.

Probably not as good as being such a huge G&S fan makes it seem but wonderful just the same
