advance warning concerning scary drummer 

Dankzij De Dijken results in a record and a video of the same name, and both are, thanks to a television broadcast in march '95, very successful. 

In the same period Nits produce the music for Bedlam Brittanica a BBC-docudrama. In october the band compiles their greatest hits and some new songs on Nest, their self-produced video clips on Vest and rare recordingsl on the CD Quest.

 The single Broken Wing of Nest has as an extra a bonus cd with three Beatles covers, with which the group joins the revived Beatlemania following the Anthology project. For the Boudewijn de Groot-tribute Als De Rook Is Verdwenen they cover the song Een Meisje Van 16 (Une enfant de 16 ans)
