New television, direct from Belle and Sebastian HQ

As the release of the new Belle and Sebastian record 'Write About Love' looms, the promotional monster that is B&S HQ rumbles into action with this new video. Although the presenter (Dougie Anderson) is unbearably badly scripted and the hand picked nature of the audience is all too apparent, the short is pretty gorgeous. Nicely shot, looking like a moving Belle and Sebastian sleeve, it includes some interesting cameos from some of Glasgow's finest, including Bjorn from Wake The President and John from Butcher Boy. Oh, and of course, the new songs are showcased and they sound pretty promising.
