but this is quite old.- ethangk, on 07/04/2008, -0/+1its worth getting ahold of the whole first series, its pretty damn funny with some seriously messed up parts
- cusoman, on 07/04/2008, -1/+1If people couldn't figure that out by the you tube title and the fact that it clearly said "BBC Three" on the top, along with the British accent, they're pretty dense :P
- jamesarice, on 07/04/2008, -0/+1BBC Three series.
- bbbren, on 07/04/2008, -0/+2yeah, i've watched all the youtube videos, they're fantastic.
- Bowd99, on 07/04/2008, -0/+6It's a shame Monkeydust never got the respect it deserved, I guess the darker elements of it were a bit too much for the average viewer.
- oliversan, on 07/04/2008, -0/+0I loved Monkey Dust when it was on, so incredibly funny.
- Scratkiller, on 07/04/2008, -4/+25OMG....another dupe

- celkin, on 07/04/2008, -1/+33That was even better the SECOND time it was posted on Digg in the past three months!
- 11Christine, on 07/04/2008, -5/+1Google and internal Digg search couldn't find it. Could you give me a link?
- uberduger, on 07/04/2008, -1/+2http://digg.com/hardware/The_Internet_Is_Expanding
94 days ago apparently. It didn't make front page, but I couldn't be arsed to trawl and find the nearest front page one... :) - 11Christine, on 07/04/2008, -2/+0Well... then it would probably be buried within a couple of minutes.
- uberduger, on 07/04/2008, -1/+2http://digg.com/hardware/The_Internet_Is_Expanding
- Chicken, on 07/04/2008, -0/+1Did the other 2 times make it to the front page?
- 11Christine, on 07/04/2008, -5/+1Google and internal Digg search couldn't find it. Could you give me a link?
- SuckMyDigg, on 07/04/2008, -0/+2That was awesome
- Mitchellkohl, on 07/04/2008, -3/+2I'd hit that.
- scabbers, on 07/04/2008, -0/+3Monkey Dust rules. It's too bad they'll never put it back on TV after the 'homegrown bombers' thing actually came to pass.
- jimmick, on 07/04/2008, -0/+2The what?
Someone elaborate- Bowd99, on 07/04/2008, -0/+1Elaboration:

- takatoo, on 07/04/2008, -0/+30http://digg.com/comedy/Remember_the_sound_of_a_dia ...
this is ***** old as the bitches in the vid - Smaugrens, on 07/04/2008, -0/+1That was great. Around when dialup was popular this is probably the best guess I had as to what the hell those sounds were.
- uberduger, on 07/04/2008, -0/+0They used it as a BBC Three advert before I'd ever seen Monkey Dust, and I remember watching it and thinking that it was the best advert I'd ever seen.
- Rabbitez, on 07/04/2008, -0/+2You've obviously never seen the dancing car advert.
- uberduger, on 07/04/2008, -0/+0They used it as a BBC Three advert before I'd ever seen Monkey Dust, and I remember watching it and thinking that it was the best advert I'd ever seen.
- bensone1, on 07/04/2008, -0/+2I kinda miss hearing this when I was connecting to the Internet using my Dreamcast. Alas, those were much simpler times.
- GeorgeStone2, on 07/04/2008, -0/+1Holy *****. Nostalgia-five!
- djcreamy, on 07/04/2008, -2/+3The purpose of this comment is to respectfully express my discontent with this repeat article.
Please consider my discontent expressed. - SniperZero, on 07/04/2008, -0/+1The internet is evolving.
- CurlyFoot, on 07/04/2008, -0/+4Old as balls, but still a classic
- digitalpencil, on 07/04/2008, -0/+1always wondered how dial-up actually worked..
- PrometheusBorn, on 07/04/2008, -1/+0Do you mean..... sexually?
Mmmm... - Jack9, on 07/04/2008, -1/+2Dupe
- OpCzar, on 07/04/2008, -0/+1Nobody back then knew you could turn that awful sound off, I guess. Maybe ISP's weren't telling so they could use it as selling point for DSL?
- INTERNETMASTER, on 07/04/2008, -1/+3OLD
- Kornstalx, on 07/04/2008, -0/+2I made a ringtone from that clip's audio.
People look at me funny :) - smarty927, on 07/04/2008, -2/+3This is OLD!
- BetterOffEd, on 07/04/2008, -0/+3It just hit me that there are people reading this on the internet right now that don't even remember what that sound is or means.
We're gettin' *old* people...- 42Vindictive, on 07/04/2008, -0/+2Egads... You're right... O_O That makes me feel old.
- yaosio, on 07/04/2008, -0/+1Maybe they should take on some funny writers.
- Ursad, on 07/04/2008, -0/+1Just me who thinks that was to fast for dial up?
- nelwan, on 07/04/2008, -0/+2someone commented this on youtube.. thought it was kinda funny.
"I actually do like the sound. It meant that the line wasn't busy." - darlyn, on 07/05/2008, -0/+1Oh my, that was horrifying.
- supermanred, on 07/05/2008, -0/+1Gotta love the BBC.
