Frankie Howerd - the bloke off old Tv who dressed as a Roman servant wearing a dodgy syrup of fig [ wig Spaldy].

Too bad that wasn’t correct.

Can’t use his “A funny thing happened on the way to the forum” gag.

(But does anyway)

Some good and funny stuff! Learned some new words. Thanks

Dialects appear to have been minimized by the internet but some that come to mind that don’t occur much in the US unless around UK expats

Bollox

Fig. Learned that today
Fags.

Spanner is unique since it covers a range of tools we call sockets, box wrench, open end wrenches, crescent wrenches as well as just being a tool in general like being an ass or dickhead

Amazing how many English words I drop into French conversation innocently & produces folks staring at me as they sure translate into some totally different meanings.

Classic recently was referring to Boris Johnson as Bojo - apparently translated into French as a rather 'dark art form' performed by night working ladies of entertainment in my nearby port of Nantes.

One more from the English urban dictionary for you, Spaldy.

Chris Wood is just a poundshop Harry Kewell.

Guy has no loyalty or desire to help a team and will just go where the money is, first chance he has had to jump ship and he has gone in the middle of their relegation battle. Left us and refused to play.

Tough for Burnley but honestly think they're going down anyway so to get 25m now for him is great business, hope they can reinvest that and stay up at Newcastle expense now.

[hopelesslyoptimistic]

Wonder if they will start playing like Burnley now 😆

Agree completely. Just like that other guy, Charlie Taylor. Now what club does he play for? Burnley I think. Wont be surprised if he jumps ship too.

You make my nuts tighten.

Sorry, it (the spanner) makes my nuts tight.

'You are awful, but I like you'. Name him in one.... Prize for 1st.

How far has comedy gone downhill since those days? Your lot Mrs Brown F off Winny lol the *******! make benny hill innocent. BTW Andy and Billy I love Mrs. Brown Boys and a lot of Irish shows which I watch on our ABC channel like the BBC without any fees lol.
Brassic and the young offenders are a couple of recent ones I have watched which made me laugh.
