It always strikes me as sloppy when they refer to 'fiddling' on the B.B.C. news, when someone's been caught cheating, stealing, or defrauding.
Especially when they drop the 'g', and pronounce it as fiddlin'.
I bet they didn't say fiddling, when they broadcast from Ally Pally, in evening gowns, and pearls.
Mind you, they probably wouldn't have used the word sloppy, either.
