The BBC's Non-Sensical Attempt to Get You Watching the Olympics

This advertisement is airing on the BBC to promote their upcoming Olympics coverage. Like NBC in the U.S., the BBC will be handling all of the U.K.'s 2008 Beijing Games coverage. It's just too bad we don't have any idea what the hell the BBC is trying to say in this two-minute spot. Do you?

It's Monkey Magic! It was my favourite show when I was 8 (shown on ABC in Australia).
