Does Carol Vorderman think we can't tell her boat has been lifted? It's like her smile has been glued in that position.

[maggiebee]

Speaking in tongues again TTT?

[naomi24]

I've gone right off her.

[ToraToraTora]

If you can't understand maggie then it's probably not for you.

[Canary42]

How pompous

[Zacs-Master]

I'm pretty sure, given her very obvious Kardashian body work, she wouldn't deny having her fizzog done as well. 

[ToraToraTora]

Maggie likes to pretend she doesn't understand rhyming slang to make some sort of point. It has been explained many times.

[maggiebee]

TTT are you actually a cockney?  If so, you are very much in the minority on this site and you should show some respect to others. Is it so difficult to use proper English?  

[ToraToraTora]

No I'm not a cockney. Je ne suis pas français non plus, mais j'aime les langues et l'argot.

[Deskdiary]

This faux-misunderstanding of TTT's slang just makes people look silly.

Boat is widely understood to mean face, and given the context even those who genuinely don't understand would know.

[naomi24]

I often don't have a clue what you're saying TTT - but one who is known to ramble in Scottish gobbledegook has no room to complain.  Perhaps you should all make an effort to be courteous enough to speak English.

As a Yorkshireman I understand 90% of Tora's posts. It is English, just a quirky regional version of it. 

[Arksided]

Yorkshire men are a bit special.

I stopped watching HIGNFY years ago shortly after Angus was sacked. I have seen Carol on other things though but never really noticed to be honest.

[douglas9401]

The confusion may be because the fragrant Carol has recently had her cabin cruiser debarnacled. :-)

[piggynose]

13.58 I didn't know she had a pub!

[barry1010]

I didn't know 'boat' means face.  We say fizzog here

[Arksided]

Boat-Race, Face

[barry1010]

When I hear 'boat', race doesn't come to mind. 

[Arksided]

I wouldn't have normally just heard it before.

[barry1010]

Every day's a school day.  I won't be using it, though. I'm not a Cockney so it would be cultural appropriation 😂

 

[Blubster]

For those not familiar with the slang `boat` for face, they'd be better off not knowing what Harry on the boat means. :)
