You should be aware that the version of BKtMM on the _AotSW_ CD
(which was originally the B-side for the British "This Woman's
Work" single) is heavily edited and remixed.  Some people, such
as Vickie Mapes, call it the "ruined" version.  Sadly, the soundtrack
to the movie is extremely hard to find.

As for "G.L.C.", this half-hour Comic Strip movie was shown on British
TV in the spring of 1990.  It has been repeated at least once.  Kate
wrote *all* the music for this, which includes several instrumental pieces
besides the song "Ken".

Kate made her debut acting role (besides videos) in another Comic Strip
movie, "Les Dogs."  This was also shown for the first time in the spring
of 1990.

Yes, quite a few of us have seen both of these Comic Strips.  I have 
them on videotape.  Before anybody asks, I can't make copies of them
right now because I only have access to one VCR.  But I'd be happy
to show them to anyone who wanted to drop by.  I live in Livermore, 
California.
