I just found this through another site.
I didn't know but Seth MacFarlane, the twisted mind behind the Family Guy cartoon is also a big fan of analog photography. In his latest show, he did a spoof of the muppets and used a Diana as the perfect camera for the characters.
If you missed the show, you can get it here as a torrent (http://torrent.zoink.it/Family.Guy.S09E18.HDTV.XviD-LOL.%5Beztv%5D.torrent)... the episode is titled “Foreign Affairs”...
Check around 6:20 for the best part :)

Hi Francois.
I wonder if you could help me, please? I've downloaded a "torrent downloader" which has allowed me to download the torrent. However, how do I open and play the torrent? Which bit of software do I need to associate the .torrent file type with to open it? I've tried windows media player but no use.
Please bear in mind that I am not at all computer savvy, so please explain in words of one syllable. :)
Thanks,
Paul.

u need a torrent assembler (or whatever)
http://www.utorrent.com/ (http://www.utorrent.com/)
then when you click on the torrent file, uTorrent should automatically open and start working its magic.
-
Like Hookstrapped said, download and install uTorrent.
The torrent file is just a type of bookmark... uTorrent knows what to do with it.
When you click on the link, tell the browser to open with utorrent. This will start the program and give you full file info and ask you where you want to save it.
Once you're done downloading it, the link in the program will turn blue. that means you're only transmitting and that the download is complete. At that point, you need to hit the stop button or it will eat-up all your bandwidth. You can then delete the link in the downloader, the file is on your drive.

Thanks guys. I've downloaded utorrent and I'm now downloading the Family Guy torrent. Mind you, it's taking an eternity. Hopefully, I'll get to watch it tonight!! (Crap broadband speed where I live......!!)
-
Actually, the speed depends on many factors when it comes to this format:
Number of people who have the file (seeds)
Bandwidth
Program configuration
Number of up/down slots
and so on...

I love Family Guy! ;D
Just watched...looks like a mini Diana in fact.
-
Kinda hard to say... but it's still cool :)
I wonder why nobody does a puppet based series like the muppets anymore?
-
only recent one I can remember is "greg the bunny" but there is often puppets on the US late night talk show "The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson".

The only puppet we had on American late night is the insult dog... not very artistic or even credible...
We still have Barney, Sesame Street and Between the lions on the air, but to me that doesn't count :)

The muppets were good entertainment but spitting image were better.
