Neil and Chris have said it is not a well-known Hans Christian Andersen story. More than that we do not know.

"The most incredible thing" by Hans Christian Andersen is the story PSB has chosen for the ballet with the Spanish dancer Javier de Frutos.

When the tale begins, a contest has been proclaimed in which half the kingdom and the hand of the princess in marriage will be the rewards of he who can produce the most incredible thing. A poor young man creates a magnificent clock with different lifelike figures — Moses, Adam and Eve, the Four Seasons, the Five Senses, and others — which appear at the stroke of the hour. All agree the clock is the most incredible thing and its creator is named the winner. Suddenly, another man smashes the clock and all then agree that this act is even more incredible than the creation of the beautiful clock. The destroyer is to wed the princess, but at the wedding, the figures of the clock magically reappear, defeat him, and then vanish. All agree that this is the most incredible thing, and the princess and the young creator of the clock marry.

he he, very good but if you look again you'll see that the word 'c***' has been auto-corrected to 'clock'.

I have a feeling this is going to be one of those bad examples of what happens when you are surrounded by yes people.

following a late night telephone call to Chris' cousin twice removed I can reveal that
the Hans Christian Anderson idea has been abandoned in favour of a concept involving
're-imaginings' of PSBs' back catalogue. In homage of Pleases 25th anniversary next year
the first track will be Tutu divided by zero
