MIDDLE-AGED MAN


Well, I think it’s a disgrace, parading around all ponced-up like a pack of bleeding woofters. Bloody hell, what’ll they think up next?

Slang:
ponced up = Dressed up; or overdressed
woofters = male homosexual

Chuffed!

I was even wondering if this information warranted a post and then it's gotten the most comments of anything so far!

For one thing, I think those Americans without a script might not get the exact dialogue, and then unless you are an anglophile, they are not familiar, since they really aren't used here in the States. I suspect that that is part of their charm to Todd, there is a far more colorful array of terms for homosexuality in the U.K. than in America. Perhaps it has something to do with being ruled by a Queen... ;-)
