The video below has become a surprise YouTube hit this week after Ian Smith, aka Harold Bishop from Neighbours took to Trafalgar Square on Thursday to perform the Neighbours theme tune with his 330 piece brass band.

The performance was to mark the move of Australian soap opera Neighbours from BBC One to Five this Monday.

Ian has admitted this week that he will be taking a reduced role in the soap from now on, to try to avoid the adverse reaction he gets from Aussie youngsters.
