Bloody hell - that's a bit tenuous isn't it?

I bet you snigger at Winnie the Pooh (it's a turd called Winnie) and think Humpty Dumpty is a euphemism for anal sex? :D

Put that in your stand-up act, Dolly. It's gold. :D

Do they not broadcast old kids shows at about 6 in the morning on Channel 4 any more?

No. Today's 6am lineup was a double bill of The Hoobs, followed by Planet Cook, I think it was called. Too lazy to look again.

Nothing decent. Miiiight be something on a really obscure digital channel, but nothing that most kids would see.

I did snigger at this:

I laughed out loud.

If we're doing double entendres I want to repost my one from yesterday that I found on the BBC site.

"I had the privilege of meeting Oliver Postgate a number of times back in the '70's as a friend lived next door to him in Blean, Canterbury. I remember being invited to have afternoon tea with him, and he very kindly gave my two sisters a clanger each."

Yes - we saw that!
