Someone said they wanted some food after watching Public Television ( http://www.h2g2.com/A88274 ) so I bring you some food. Not just any food, but food from the depths of history. Check out the article number again A2593. Man this is old stuff. There will be more old stuff to come but for now lets content ourselves with one mans vision of hell in the vegetable world.

Well I thought I'd better, just in case I got shouted at for putting a picture of you up. (though the captions aren't in the same place...)

I might be a teacher, but I never shout at anyone! (Speak softly and carry a big stick). Weren't there a few jokes about parsnips in Black Adder?

I do believe BlackAdder might have had something to say about Parsnips but I can't remember what. Probably some lewd single entendre about the shape smiley - smiley

I think the Blackadder jokes were about Turnips, but I agree with this article anyway. Bloody parsnips, lurkers I call them. Anyway, glad I managed to catch the tour up, I feel jolly pround of myself now.

Now I come to think of it, the Black Adder veg might well have been a turnip. No comedic milage in a parsnip at all.

This is one of my all-time favourite H2G2 articles - an inspired choice! smiley - winkeye

Turnips ran through series 2 and 3 at least, it was Baldricks thing, except the bit with the "thingy shaped turnip" that was a great epsiode. Do I sound a bit sad now?

Not at all!
*hopes that the forum where he and Lochangel traded Blackadder quotes for three days solid doesn't form part of the tour*

*wanders in with a parsnip almost exactly the same shape as a turnip*

I knew that would come in useful sooner or later.

Evenin' all. Anyone for a hot dog?

Depends what the hot dog is shaped like.

Shaped suspiciously like a sausage in a bun.

That's as opposed to being shaped like a suspicious sausage in a bun.

I don't know where it is, it was about 9 months ago now...
