XTC: The Road to Oranges & Lemons

"a rarely seen home-made film by the band explaining the album (and themselves!)"

The Road to Oranges & Lemons is a promotional short for the 1989 release of Oranges & Lemons. It features Andy, Colin, and Dave documenting and spoofing XTC's career from its formation and meeting with Barry Andrews, to recording its albums, to the "Dear God" controversy, and finally to Oranges & Lemons. The three make use of toys, pictures, and briefly a potato, to represent (and poke fun at) the different people XTC meets, as well as background sound effects and backdrops to represent different locations.
