    If thats the bit I think it is, there's a clip on Borats home pages. It's hilariously outrageous, although admittedly, slightly uncomfortable to watch... He gets them to sing "throw the Jews in the well" !!!

    We thought they were actually acting as they were so blatantly bone-headed.

    It was pure comedy whatever they were He loved them and then ditched them at the flip of a coin.

    I thought they were actors at the time as they didn't really play up to the camera, if they were legitimatly[sp?] drunk?

    Anyone know when Borat will be shown at the cinemas up to? I fancy watching it again.
