Recently, the great Humphrey Lyttelton, passed away. He had a marvelous voice, ideal for the radio. I often spent many hours listening to ‘I’m sorry I haven’t got a Clue’ Often I didn’t understand all the jokes, but, I enjoyed listening just for the sense of fun and offbeat humour. As mentioned in this post - The Real Meaning of Words, “I’m sorry I haven’t a Clue” often played on the meaning of words:
Quotes from Uxbridge English Dictionary
Satire - seated in a more elevated position.
scandal - footwear you should be ashamed of
telepathy - you can’t be bothered to turn on the TV
Varnish - to disappear in Mayfair
Xenophobia - fear of Buddhists
From: The Uxbridge English Dictionary Seventeenth Edition (approx) Completely revived As heard on I’m sorry I haven’t a clue.
