    LAME

    I'm gonna limp forever;

    National Health is to blame.

    Starmer will say it's a shame.

    I would certainly go and see 'Pilates of the Caribbean' in preference to the original! Then of course there's 'The Pilates of Penzance'.

    'Pirates of the carob bean', anyone? There's plenty of wind in their sails!

    That could actually work, though it might require a time-period in which the English rural areas were viewed as more rustic and isolated.

    That's a gem. Thank you. It has always struck me that football enthusiasts get more than their fair share of televised matches. For the number of people in the UK whose hobby is fishing, they should get their fair share of televised sport. What could be more exciting than endless hours of chaps sitting on folding stools by canals in the rain?

    Not perhaps as exciting, but how about

    Patch of the Day

    competitive sewing, or to fit in with Springwatch which is on at the moment, and their webcams which are available during the daytime on iPlayer, we give you,

    Hatch of the Day.

    At least that would be more exciting than streamed doorcam footage,

    Latch of the Day.

    I just saw this on Wikipedia, emphasis mine:
    Much of the time on the flight-deck is spent with the crew playing various games to pass the time such as "Flight-deck Buckeroo", "People Who Aren't Evil But Have Evil Sounding Names", "Brians of Britain", "Books That Sound More Interesting with the Final Letter Knocked Off", (e.g. Three Men in a Boa, Of Mice and Me)

    I had forgotten that. It's also been played on 'I'm Sorry I haven't a Clue'.
