I was reading a story yesterday and remembered Dick Bently. I used to listen to the show with Jimmy Edwards and remember an episode where they were in Italy and needed help. One character said to the other call for help in Italian and the other character called ‘Help in Italian’. It struck us as particularly funny and it became a phrase we used in our family. When ever my mum needed help with anything from setting the table to anything she used to call out ‘Help in Italian’.
I still do it.
I wonder how many others use phrases and key words picked up along the way from shows .
