Sad news for film buffs: the ‘Hitler’ video spoof of AHIPP has been removed from YouTube.

The scenes, showing a ranting Fuhrer apparently sounding off in his bunker about the Tories and Home Information Packs, were a great hit in the industry.

As one enthusiast remarked, the video was viewed many more times than HIPs themselves.

Our own favourite line was where a weeping woman listening to the apoplectic ranting is comforted with the words: “Don’t worry, Rosalind, he was never going to advertise anyway.”

Most of the Hitler parodies have been taken down after the owners of the rights to the original film, Downfall, decided to protect their copyright.

However, it is understood that several copies of the Mike Ockenden spoof video were downloaded before the ban, and are still doing the rounds.

After the election, maybe agents will be handing them out to vendors instead of HIPs.

Simon - thanks for your support and Rosalind, we are very pleased that you enjoyed your cameo appearance. And to our friends at AHIPP, you've gone a bit quiet chaps. It's been a while since you've made a misleading video, released flawed statistics or made empty threats against anyone at all. Go on, tear yourself away from Monster.com and make another video. We dare you.
