Roger K. has discovered someone who has taken the first few 1963 episodes of Petticoat Junction and made it into a movie. 

As usual, we see a minimal amount of bouffant in evidence, sadly.

It may not be St. Patrick's Day, but Jennifer points to this delightful YouTube:

 "There's a woman who loves drawing ladies in huge gowns. She seems obsessed with the crinoline.
She gives away drawings by letting people download them.

Here's her favourite album: The Twin Princesses."

A comment from Ed N. regarding this YouTube:

"I'm sure it wasn't intended to be, but she sounds like she's patronizing idiots!
Like there are people (especially girls) who don't know this??? Like she's revealing some big secret. Almost funny...

  "The girls should consult the experts ... US!"
