The video for “The Importance of Being Idle” will receive it’s world premiere on Channel 4 at 7.55pm on Friday 1 st July . Featuring Welsh stage genius, Rhys Ifans, fresh from an award winning performance as Peter Cook in “Not Only, But Also”, the film sees Ifans as a Billy Liar character in a 60’s London setting reminiscent of such classics of British cinema as “Up The Junction” and “Saturday Night and Sunday Morning”. Ifans plays a funeral director high kicking his way through a New Orleans style funeral procession as bemused onlookers watch the procession and demonstrates an unnerving talent for dance routines.
