A little bit of Wisdom

As I move in and out of the living room, jumping through time and space to find a place to settle in either my bedroom or the lounge room, I’ve noticed that the ABC — who play old movies late at night — are playing a movie which is actually pretty decent right now.

It’s called [url=http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0047298/]”One Good Turn”[/url] and stars what seems like [url=http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0936295/]a very cool actor named Norman Wisdom[/url]. He’s certainly doing a good job of the idiot role.

I do have a curious question, mind you, on one of the elements in the film.

At one point, as the characters are on a train to see another part of the country, they sing “Botany Bay”, [url=http://folkstream.com/010.html]an Australian folk song[/url].

For an English movie, this has me a bit confused.

Anyone know why the kids sing this in an English film?
