Framing footage

The video starts with Bill Wyman—who conceived and developed the compilation

MBE on it, he comments, "They never did give us one of these, did they?", and takes it from the jacket. He sits down at a computer terminal and pulls up the first video. After the first video, he remembers that something might be in the room. He pulls a cloth off an exhibit, which is Jagger in suspended animation
, wearing a c.1973 stage outfit. Wyman wakes Jagger up and they go through the exhibit, "playing" videos on such things as a microwave oven and an old TV, but mostly on Wyman's stylized computer, making pithy comments all throughout.

MICK: "Bill, you ever try and sleep in the same room as Keith?"
BILL: "No... but I've tried to sleep in the same hotel as him!"

The piece ends with real museum guards crashing through the locked door and carrying Wyman off, Jagger still in the exhibit glass. The image fades to Wyman being woken up by Jagger backstage, as it's time to go on. However, Wyman now has an MBE on his jacket.
