How to lay a carpet

To improve the sound reduction and general quality of the studios, we had 'sourced' lots and lots of carpet.

Follow the carpet lay adventures and some very unusual carpet cutting techniques - the pros need not worry!

Craig flexes his arm muscles, unaware that a runaway riderless motorcycle is about to crash up his behind.

   

Craig and Jim marvel at how well that have wrapped Malcolm up in a piece of carpet.

Craig does his gnome impersonation. Jim tests his pointing finger.

   

Malcolm, Jim and Craig try to re-create the famous sawing-the-lady-in-half trick, without the lady.

A row of computers.

   

Suddenly Malcolm sees some blood appear on the saw and the trick seems to have gone very wrong. Jim and Craig count their hands.

More computers.

   

A carpeted corner.

Some records - the singles

   

Jim re-creates his standing-to-attention pose that he perfected when doing guard duty at the palace.

The CD's

   

Craig re-creates his man-at-CA pose that he perfected when working as a shop window dummy.

Tracey runs around chase her imaginary friend while Malcolm stands on a box looking around the corner.

   

Craig admires his carpet corners.

This is Jim looking surprised.

   

Tracey the Disco Deva shows off her moves. Craig eating crisps.

Jim smiles as his catches a black hoover-snake.

   

Now Jim shows his dance moves. Craig still eating crisps.

Another tragic working accident. Here Craig gets his hand stuck in a carpet roll. Later on Malcolm and Jim repeat their carpet sawing trick.

   

Tracey sits down on the new carpet but does not see the upward pointing nail.
