"Promotional film"[edit]

Isn't Eric Idle's "promotional film" for this song referenced in the article truly one of the very early music videos in the modern sense of the term? It sure bears a lot of resemblance to what came out on MTV five years later, and very little to earlier performance videos which basically consisted of filming live performances of artists in a concert context. Isn't there somewhere a reliable source stating as much? 2600:1004:B164:24A7:59B:86B5:5C65:218 (talk) 02:30, 24 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Crackerbox Palace versus Friar Park[edit]

The article says that Friar Park is nicknamed "Crackerbox Palace". It would appear so to people because the Friar Park mansion is used for the video, and at the beginning of it a sign on the property says, "Welcome to Crackerbox Palace". It is my understanding that this is just for the video but that in real life, Friar Park is not nicknamed this. See this documentary video which corroborates this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7t48-vwIVD4
