British troops in the Royal Dragoon Guards at their Al Faw base in Iraq do a spoof of Tony Christie's song, "Amarillo".

Their version is called, "Is This The Way To Armadillo?" It was based on comic Peter Kay's original spoof of the same song done for Comic Relief which features a whole host of familiar faces.

GREAT PERFORMANCE! The High morale in the worst of environments, the imagination, the orginality,
the talent, that went into this, gives me immense pride in my British Heritage! You won't find this kind of esprit in any American unit!
