Annotated Goon Show Questions 41-50

41) Show 6/17:

Seagoon: Now, you see this large map of the Dacca and Ambritsar
area showing the high ground and Sunday trains to Delhi?

Dacca is of course the Anglisised spelling of Dhaka, the capital
of Bangladesh. With Secombe's Welsh accent it sounds as if he's
saying 'Dakar' (capital of Senegal), but that makes no geographic
sense. The open question is what the second place name is. It
sounds like he's saying 'Ambristar' but I've been unable to find
any place in the Bengal region of the Indian subcontinent with
a name resembling that. There's Amristar, but that's in the
Punjab, on the other side of the subcontinent, so it makes no
sense in the context of a "Dacca and Amristar area". Can anyone
out there make better sense of what Seagoon's saying?


42) Show 6/17:

Seagoon: Men, bad news. The Red Bladder has surrounded our
radio station at Chattagand. All our records are in danger.

There appears to be no such place as Chattagand. I did turn up
a few hits for 'Chattagang' and 'Chatagang'. Chittagong is a
large city in Bangladesh. Is 'Chattagan' an Anglisization of
Chittagong, or is this perhaps a name Spike made up to sound
like Chittagong?


43) Show 6/19:

Bannister: I said, what about the drains in Hackney? We have...

There are several other references during Goon parliamentary
debates to "the drains in Hackney". Near as I can tell, "What
about the drains in X?" is a cliche phrase for background
mutterings at political meetings, like "rhubarb, rhubarb".


44) Show 6/19:

Aneurin Bevan: What about the Welsh reactionaries, then?

Is this just a general comment about Bevan's politics, or is it
a reference to some specific topical incident?


45) Show 6/19:

Churchill: What about all this washing outside Number Ten,
that’s what I...

Obviously a topical reference. But to what?


46) Show 6/20:

Londongle: More brown power!

This occurs just before Max Geldray's tune. It's a popular
enough exclamation to be almost one of Spike's catch-phrases.
Is this a civil rights slogan (as it was/is in the US)?


47) Show 6/22:

Bannister: No, no, buddy, it wouldn’t be able to see where
it was going. I... ooooh! Did you say we were at
war, young man?

Minister: Er… yes, yes.

Bannister: I’d better go and get the smalls in at once.
(fades off)

Churchill: Better not let Anthony see you doing that.

Clearly Anthony is Anthony Eden, then PM. This would appear to
be another "washing outside Number Ten" topical reference (see
annotation 45, show 6/19).


48) Show 6/23:

McGregor: On the contrary, Professor Farvlov, the off-white
Russian scientist… is about to perfect a synthetic imitation
Russian-speaking Tuscan male Salami, that may completely
deceive the unsuspecting female.

Any significance to the name Farvlov? I thought it might be
Pavlov, the famous Russian animal behaviour scientist. Or
perhaps a play on Farlow, the bebop guitarist.


49) Show 6/23:

Grytpype: With these plans of the female he can breed a million
more and bombard Soho with its own deadly kind.

Referring to Tuscan salamis. Soho's a London district notorious
for its prostitutes, as well as theatres and more respectable
businesses. What's the connection to Tuscan salamis?


50) Show 6/25:

Moriarty: Back pay? Ohieooeioh! Sapristi Ebison Glasshouse!
Ohohieoh!

Who/what is Ebison Glasshouse?

A euphemism for penis. Looks like a reference to dildos

I heard Eddystone. Eddystone Lighthouse was quite famous over here.
Glasshouse is a slang term for military prison. Put the two together like
James Joyce in Finnegan's Wake and you get Eddystone Glasshouse

How many more questions to go? Where do you find the time for all this? Keep

Not to mention that brown trousers conceal the evidence of
Bloodnok-type afterburner accidents.

And so with almost any use of the word 'brown' by Spike.

"More brown power" is about farting. And "brown is better, it doesn't show the dirt" confirms that -- it's better to fart than to follow through.

There are a total of 125 unresolved questions that I'm going to
inflict on the newsgroup. Consider yourselves lucky. :-) For the
past couple of years I've had a Goon-Annotation-People mailing list
that I relentlessly bombarded with many times these questions, most
of which either I or they resolved. What you're seeing here is the
last, most stubborn unanswered ones.

The whole of The Annotated Goon Show ran to 2826 pages the last time
I formatted the whole thing and printed it out, with 1870 footnotes
to the transcripts. That doesn't include all the items in the Goon
Glossary, which is anything mentioned in more than one show. The
Goon Glossary runs to 52 pages.

Relayed from the GSD:

From: JFK2
Posted: 22nd Jan, 2004 01:44 Post subject:

I may be able to help with a couple:

31) Grant Road: This is, I seem to remember, a bit of a red light district.
But I'll have to confirm this with my old old school mate who lives in
Bombay. Bear with me for a couple of days ...

34) Quants: Some English shire counties are abbreviated in this way:
Hampshire becomes Hants, Wiltshire is Wilts, Berkshire is Berks and so on.
Quants is therefore the abbreviation for the mythical "Quantshire".

38) Fred Laine: I think this must be Frankie Laine, singer of cowboy type
songs like Rawhide and Mule Train. Milligan seems to have loved the name
Fred (he had, of course, a Show Called Fred on TV) and there are many
references to real people but with their real forename changed to Fred.

It's a very British naughty poem and stands alongside Eskimo Nell, the ball
of Kerrymuir, If I were the marrying kind and Mary had a little lamb.
#When Mary had a little lamb
#The doctor was surprised.
#But when Old MacDonald had a farm
#He couldn't believe his eyes!

...and that's the cleanest one I could remember.

Oh, no, just recalled

#Mary had a little lamb,
#Its fleece was black as soot,
#And ev'rywhere that Mary went
#His sooty foot 'e put.

...although there's probably something there that I missed, rather like the
strait-laced gentleman[1] who didn''t see the hidden meaning in this:

#There was a young fellow named Hyde
#Who fell down a privy, and died.
#His unfortunate brother
#Then fell down another,
#And now they're interred side-by-side.

[1] Detailed, IIRC, in "The Lure of the Limerick"[2] by William S Baring-Gould

Mary's slittle lamb you want? OK.

Moslty mine except the few marked otherwise.

Mary had a little lamb.
And then she had it shorn.
The poor thing caught a dreadful cold,
Coz all its wool had gorn!

Moory hid a lattle limb.
The poor thing was dyslexic.
It also caught a nasty bug
That made its left hind leg sick!

Hands up all those who thought I couldn't rhyme 'dysexic'!

Eccles: But Iyyy don't want ter put my hands up all those who thought
you couldn't rhyme 'dyslexic'!

Grams: BANGGGGGGG!!!

Owwwwwwwwwwwwwowwowwowwww!

Mary had a little lamb.
This lamb it was a glutton.
It didn't do itself much good,
'Twas quickly fat, then mutton!

So . . .

Mary had her little lamb,
For dinner with some sprouts.
Her mum said, "You can't eat your pet!!"
And gave her several clouts!

Mary had a little lamb,
The Midwife nearly died.
To add to the astonishment
It came out ready-fried!

Mary had a little limb.
Thalidomide she took.
That's why it came out all deformed,
And totally in shtook!

Mary had a little lamb.
Shock killed the Obstetrician.
The answer, though, was quickly found:
She'd married a magician!

Very stubborn doctor: Obstinatrician.

Mary had a little lamb.
It's fleas were white as snow.
Whence came all these albino fleas
The doctors didn't know.

Mary had a little lamb
With whom she used to sleep.
Mary's lamb became a ram
Then Mary had a sheep!

Mary had a little lamb.
Her father shot it dead.
So now it goes to school with her
Between two bits of bread.
(not mine)

Mary had two little lambs.
Their names were Jack and Gypsy.
They both got foot and mouth disease,
So now they're black and crispy.
(not mine)

Mary had a little son,
Supposed to be messiah!
Now he runs a used car place,
With cars for sale or hire!

If he'd have been an ordinary lamb, they'd have been ewesed cars!

Mary had a little pig,
The pig was very sprightly.
It danced a lively Irish Jig
All day and then twice nightly!

Mary had a little calf -
Spent all its time a-mooing!
All day, all night, till it got shot!
Thus it was brought to ruin!

Mary had a big fat hen!
It came out all a-clucking!
Exhausted then the rooster died -
It gave her such a fucking!

Mary had a little lamb.
It straight 'way went to kip.
That made her so fed up with it
It woke up in a skip!


A long one . . Different metre. All the others are electric. This one's
gas!

Mary had a little lamb in bed!
She took it there because she'd heard it said,
That for tomorrow's dinner 'twould be ate.
So to hide it in her bed it would be great.

Her mother came at morning with an axe,
But Mary beat off all her wild attacks.
The lamb ran off to hide out in the clover,
But on the way the bugger got run over!!

The car careered into the kitchen garden.
The driver was polite and said "Beg pardon."
The lamb's remains were roasted on a spit.
Mary saw them; shouted out, "Oh, shit!"

She couldn't though - the car had wrecked the loo.
So all the fam'ly had no-where to poo.
They dug a pit in which to shit right there
And Mary's shovel struck
an-unexploded-bomb-and-very-thankfully-ended-the-poem-with-bits-of-her-all-flying-in-all-directions-though-the-air!

As she disintegrated, she said, "I can't think of a crater way to go!"


Cock-a-doodle-WOOF!! - Sound of a doggerel!


Mary had a little lamb
Which fell asleep quite soon.
When it awoke it trotted off
And joined the bold Irgoon!

Mary had a little lamb
It kept on going 'Baa!'
She said, 'Shut up" - the damned thing did -
So Mary thanked it: "Ta!"

Worth coming out of hibernation for.

My favo(u)rite ep is Call Of The West. It has Wal playing an Indian

a reference to a very naughty poem about the crew of the Good Ship
Venus.
I confess that I don't understand the joke about the Good Ship Venus.
Or maybe I shouldn't ask?

Oscar Brand, born in Winnipeg in 1920, is still going strong at 93. He
has a lot more strings to his bow than Bawdy Songs and Backroom Ballads.

He has hosted Folksong Festival on WNYC AM 820 (Saturdays at 10 PM)

They always pismronounce it 'penus'. It's penis, as in Penes from
Heaven. That's the correct plural as well.

Even Stephen Fruy or odd Stephen Fruy says penus - usually followed by a
question mark and 'Yes please!'

One of his:

I was walking upon Primrose Hill one day when I stooped to pick a
buttercup - And then I thought: What a very strange place for someone to
have left a buttock!

Seagoon: Now, you see this large map of the Dacca and Ambritsar
area showing the high ground and Sunday trains to Delhi?
Dacca is of course the Anglisised spelling of Dhaka, the capital
of Bangladesh. With Secombe's Welsh accent it sounds as if he's
saying 'Dakar' (capital of Senegal), but that makes no geographic
sense. The open question is what the second place name is. It
sounds like he's saying 'Ambristar' but I've been unable to find
any place in the Bengal region of the Indian subcontinent with
a name resembling that. There's Amristar, but that's in the
Punjab, on the other side of the subcontinent, so it makes no
sense in the context of a "Dacca and Amristar area". Can anyone
out there make better sense of what Seagoon's saying?
Seagoon: Men, bad news. The Red Bladder has surrounded our
radio station at Chattagand. All our records are in danger.
There appears to be no such place as Chattagand. I did turn up
a few hits for 'Chattagang' and 'Chatagang'. Chittagong is a
large city in Bangladesh. Is 'Chattagan' an Anglisization of
Chittagong, or is this perhaps a name Spike made up to sound
like Chittagong?
Bannister: I said, what about the drains in Hackney? We have...
There are several other references during Goon parliamentary
debates to "the drains in Hackney". Near as I can tell, "What
about the drains in X?" is a cliche phrase for background
mutterings at political meetings, like "rhubarb, rhubarb".
Aneurin Bevan: What about the Welsh reactionaries, then?
Is this just a general comment about Bevan's politics, or is it
a reference to some specific topical incident?
Churchill: What about all this washing outside Number Ten,
that's what I...
Obviously a topical reference. But to what?
Londongle: More brown power!
This occurs just before Max Geldray's tune. It's a popular
enough exclamation to be almost one of Spike's catch-phrases.
Is this a civil rights slogan (as it was/is in the US)?
Bannister: No, no, buddy, it wouldn't be able to see where
it was going. I... ooooh! Did you say we were at
war, young man?
Minister: Er... yes, yes.
Bannister: I'd better go and get the smalls in at once.
(fades off)
Churchill: Better not let Anthony see you doing that.
Clearly Anthony is Anthony Eden, then PM. This would appear to
be another "washing outside Number Ten" topical reference (see
annotation 45, show 6/19).
McGregor: On the contrary, Professor Farvlov, the off-white
Russian scientist... is about to perfect a synthetic imitation
Russian-speaking Tuscan male Salami, that may completely
deceive the unsuspecting female.
Any significance to the name Farvlov? I thought it might be
Pavlov, the famous Russian animal behaviour scientist. Or
perhaps a play on Farlow, the bebop guitarist.
Grytpype: With these plans of the female he can breed a million
more and bombard Soho with its own deadly kind.
Referring to Tuscan salamis. Soho's a London district notorious
for its prostitutes, as well as theatres and more respectable
businesses. What's the connection to Tuscan salamis?

"The Choking Horror" (22/6th)
This odd line is one of two times that Milligan makes mention of the Prime Minister's washing. (The other is in 'The Great British Revolution' - 12/8th. "Come on out Mr. Prime Minister. We know you're in there! We've seen your washing on the line.") The incident it refers to involves Lady Avon, (the wife of the Prime Minister Antony Eden,) who had requested a cottager on the estate of Chequers (the Prime Ministerial country estate) to hang her washing out of view of estate visitors. The story was taken up by the Daily Mirror in January 1956, and was reported as an example of Lady Avon's (and by association Eden himself) alleged high handedness. The escalating Suez crisis eventually proved the journalists right as Eden's own political dirty washing was soon to be dragged out, putting him on the nose with the electorate - an electorate which had recently voted him and the conservative party, back into power with the biggest majority in post-war history.

"The Raid of the International Christmas Pudding" (17/6th)

Chattagan(d)....
There is no such place as Chattagan - if that is in fact what Milligan wrote. On at least one occasion during the show the word is pronounced as 'Chattagand'. It's amusing to speculate how Milligan came up with this word. Spikes Hindi was learnt from his aaya (Nanny) and his family's Indian servants and their children, so he remembered Hindi through a veil of childish imitation, not consciously realising what he was saying. 'Chatta' can mean 'stack'; while the homophone 'chutta' means 'fool' - that is to say "Chatta" and "chutta" sound almost the same in Hindi; 'gand' is almost certainly the word for 'arsehole', though it could conceivably be the mispronounced version of 'gaon', 'village'. If it is 'Chuttagand' that Spike meant, it would have meant 'the arsehole of an idiot', the sort of language he would have been certainly aware of when he was a boy.
