Big tits, Small dicks, poofy blocks in military uniform :)

The Victorian mudfields come alive thanks to the fellas from the D-Generation. Comedy genius with subplots like Stupid Hat Day, Gov Frontbottom's one man performance of South Pacific & the lost ABC camera plus heaps of fake facial hair. Comedy at it's finest! 10/10
