They're back with something old, something new, something borrowed and something... in the second half if everything's going to plan! The trouble is they've been working with the American comedienne [Joan Rivers] in London's West End and she's taught them some very bad things. Now they want to show these things to other people.

They may well also premiere some even fresher songs as a try-out for their Broadway debut in early 2003.
