Ronnie Barker's Hellraiser, anyone..?
Ronnie Barker's Hellraiser

Dressed in moderate bondage regalia, he stands sandwiched between Cleese, who wears an executioner's garb, and Corbett, in a full Gimp bodysuit complete with breathing straw.
Quote: “I look down on him, because he is a lowly gimp, but I look up to him, because he has a very big whip.”
Wait A Minute… Wasn’t It? Clive Barker.
Lily Allen's Annie Hall

Tracing the relationship from its early days to its eventual breakdown, Allen lets her trademark razor tongue loose in describing exactly what went wrong in the relationship, and how none of it was her fault.
Quote: “That sex was the most fun I've ever had without laughing.”
Wait A Minute… Wasn’t It? Woody Allen
Michael Jackson's King Kong

Quote: ‘Twasn’t the fall that killed the beast, ‘twas a lethal cocktail of prescription medication.”
Wait A Minute… Wasn’t It? Peter Jackson

Wait A Minute… Wasn’t It? Wes Craven
Karen Carpenter's Escape From New York

David Cameron's Avatar

Matt Lucas' Star Wars
The Film: A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away… Matt Lucas stages a one-man space opera detailing the fight for homosexual equality.
Matt directs, plays every part in a variety of ill-fitting costumes, writes the theme tune, and sings the theme tune.
