    That is how they speak in Yorkshire.

    This is what people in Cornwall sound like. (Traditionally if no longer)

      Hmmm, if this actually means anything l would love to know!!!!

      I have been a big Goodies fan, and just thought 100 years ago when l first saw it, that they made it up?

      PS: How do you get a video to show up and not the link? I can't work it out anymore.
      Yep, pretty easy, just cut and paste the link up the top, cut and paste the browser URL link to the video. Forget about the URL below the YouTube video, it doesn't work!

        Yes it all means something. Dialects change in England every 20 miles or so.

        Your headline is 'There is nothing wrong with things that bothering idiots don't understand.' I wrote Yorkshire but I should have written Lancashire.

        Buntiest chompers in the clundy means something like The tastiest pies in the country or maybe food in the country. You chomp on your food. It means chewing. Horses still chomp or champ at the bit if you have heard that phrase.

        People from the West Country (Devon, Dorset and Cornwall) have a drawl to their speech.

        They say Oooohhhh aaarrrrhhh. Pirates such as Sir Francis Drake came from the West Country.

        If I ask you to impersonate a pirate what would you say? Ooohhh Aaarrrhh

      That episode of the Goodies was about various martial arts. The particular clip showed Bill training for the ancient Lancastrian art of Ecky Thump, which I see you've corrected in a follow up post.

      Never call a Yorkshireman a Lancastrian, and vice versa. The War Of The Roses lives on.

      Why do garden gnomes smell so bad?
      So that blind people can hate them as well.

        It sure does. It was only recently that either Cricket Team would take someone from the other county.

    `Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
    Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:
    All mimsy were the borogoves,
    And the mome raths outgrabe.

    "Beware the Jabberwock, my son!
    The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!
    Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun
    The frumious Bandersnatch!"
    He took his vorpal sword in hand:
    Long time the manxome foe he sought --
    So rested he by the Tumtum tree,
    And stood awhile in thought.
    And, as in uffish thought he stood,
    The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame,
    Came whiffling through the tulgey wood,
    And burbled as it came!
    One, two! One, two! And through and through
    The vorpal blade went snicker-snack!
    He left it dead, and with its head
    He went galumphing back.
    "And, has thou slain the Jabberwock?
    Come to my arms, my beamish boy!
    O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!'
    He chortled in his joy.



    `Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
