... ...  We hear about an Ofsted Assembly and how eight tired, old inspectors, with little meaning to their existence, decide to take the bull by the horn, give up any pretence at reasonableness or legitimacy, and form a  Showaddywaddy  tribute act :   Showandtellytubby.
Now it's not rocket science to figure out that a tribute band's remit is to perform the songs 
in the manner of the host group    .    or as near as dammit 
But not here.   
So  Showaddywaddy's inimitable  Three Steps to Heaven  become, in the hands of  Showandtellytubby,      Three GooseSteps to Heaven,  which show us,  
in no certain terms,  how the march of  Real  Educational  Progress  is best undertaken 
by Fascist means. 
We know this to be so because Ofsted say as much,
that is  Showandtellytubby  sing as much.

 . . We also hear that the Assembly is billed, misleadingly, as  .  .  
                                (an)   Introduction to  ... . The Ring Cycle
Kolee (?Ynnit(ms))  would be there   (of course)   . .
   coz ! ud b mad 2 miss brad (Wiggins)     !?    innit

Except  the misleading  RingCycle  billing is     well      misleading  .

  .                 . ....             .    ..   .  .  ...
