It reminds me of the story, probably apocryphal, I heard about The Magic Roundabout, which was always deeply trippy. Allegedly, the BBC bought it from the French company that made it, then came in and said to the young interns, 'Right, you lads all went to good schools, you speak French, don't you?'
'Oh yes, yes, of course!' came the response.
'Fab. Translate this lot for us, would you?'
They meant to get onto it and do a good job, but it was the 60s and drugs were cheap and before they knew it there was a day to their deadline and they were all a bit off their tits and they suddenly realised their French wasn't quite what it could be, so they just made it all up.
And yet, The Magic Roundabout STILL makes more sense than that video!
