Schindler's Lift
You are advised that this may go down as well as up.



The issue of piracy has called out no less a legend than Garth himself. Garth lays it on the line and comes to a definitive conclusion.

Rosario room service
Years of experience have had their effect on Caramba's roving correspondent, who has learnt to deal with the vagaries of life on the road in varied and innovative ways.

However, are the right lessons being learned? Answers in an email to ian@gillan.com but remember to write on both sides of the email - Caramba has its finger firmly planted on the hot pulse of the war against waste.



CTV Competition
With David Attenborough-like élan our intrepid, and indeed it must be said multi-skilled, operative discovers an arboreal rarity and presents a challenge.

Question: Where is this tree to be found?
Prize: The prize is a pair of tickets to a DP concert near you, good for a year.
Or, if DP are not playing anywhere convenient, maybe something out of Ian’s shed.

COMPETITION CLOSED



Coca Cola Display Cabinet Review
Coca Cola Display Cabinet fully tested and reviewed. A new in-depth consumer service from CarambaTV and our itinerant presenter.
We do it so you don't have to.



A Private Message for Caramba's Translators
A very big thank-you to Caramba's intrepid translators.
It is, of course, strictly forbidden for anyone else to view this message.
Ha!



Xmas Message from Ian.
Ian returns to the expansive comforts of his own home for the festive period.



Our intrepid science correspondent is at the very cutting edge of scientific research and innovation.



Ian gets into the swing of that wind farm thing.



The Doctor's in..... or maybe he should be called.



A cautionary tale.....



Lotta Dogfish Round Here
Piscine housing crisis averted. Nothing misses the eye of Caramba's roving correspondent.



Incongruity Rules
Ian's Tardis only partially dematerialises. The excesses of the modern rock star laid bare. How long can this pampered lifestyle be sustained?! The sumptuous extravagance of designer living.... pah!



My Half Sister In which Ian introduces an important and much loved member of his family.



Via Funchal That 'after the gig' moment... the show goes went on. Pluckiness to the fore and not just guitarists either.



Have a great time ...as if you wouldn't anyway.



Saving On Transport In these cash strapped times it is heartening to know that the full value of the road crew is appreciated and taken into account when dealing with the band's budget.



The War Correspondent Risking his very life, and the occasional limb, from his deeply embedded position on the front line CarambaTV's war corrspondent enlightens us on current events.



Stupid Saucepan Sometimes you just have to wonder. Is CarambaTV's intrepid reporter trying to boil his head Australian stylee or is he taking part in a low-budget Dalek audition? Answers on a postcard please.



Looking Up Just going to show that there's always room for improvement and roundabouts find a more practical use.

Notice how the cars are obeying the arrow direction sign on the Caramba screen.



Moscow Nights You might wonder that after so many years touring that a little forethought might have been employed..... so near and yet.....



Quality Sundials Only the best is good enough - you just know that cheap copies wouldn't be accurate and would stop working in a couple of months.



Road Sign Who says that public authorities can't be imaginative.... enter the twilight zone.



Abstract Art Rock n' roll artistes marvel at the cleverness of the modern artist.

Warning: This video contains a dispute as to authorship but then that may explain a lot....



Daft Packaging Always subject your ideas to the rigours of scientific testing. CarambaTV's New Year Special, filmed in glorious colour by CarambaTV's Moving Pictures Department.



Priceless Mistletoe There are good, sensible, well-prepared escape plans worthy of Colditz prisoners. Then again, there are other sorts of escape plans...



Silly Chateau If not the Chateau D'If, then where.....



Stupid Seagulls It is the Editor's contention that the 'Statue of Liberty' has spent too long under the UV lamps in the tanning studio.



Silly Graffiti A bunch of ASBOs? (UK reference). Mind you, it'll no doubt be up on eBay shortly.



Silly Air Force. ...but closer examination revealed the full might of the Swiss Naval Air Arm. They had been so very sure they'd ordered the right size aircraft carrier........ well, at least they didn't have to find the money to pay for flying lessons.

The dogs of war unleashed... one at a time.



Lugano under attack. ... shock and awe. Well, mild consternation and disbelief, probably....



Stupid Paint. ... but two up on Henry Ford.



Stupid Hotel. The answer as to where all those Lego bricks go when they hide from you..



Stupid Car. Ian views the return of vegetation with relative equanimity.



Stupid Palace. Featuring an ideal little hideaway from Romania. Small is clearly still beautiful. Notice, no doubt with relief, the visual absence of vegetation but then remember it's dark and wonder....



Stupid Palm Tree 2. Ambushed... paranoia... obsession... vegetable conspiracy. Remember our advice, do not stare down any piece of serious vegetation, they might get you back...



Stupid Palm Tree 1. Third in the Stupid series and first in the 'Vegetable Matter' sub-classification. There is no end to stupidity in the world and we have tasked Caramba's naturalist cum anthropologist to detail it all. Note Ian Paice warming up in the background.



Stupid House. Second in the Stupid series and first in the 'House' sub-classification, brought to you by Caramba's very own John Pilger. Cecil B DeMille eat your heart out.



Stupid Bed First in a series, brought to you by Caramba's very own roving gopher reporter correspondent. Hours and hours we spent trying to think of something to keep him occupied.
