An easy 10/10 for me. I put that down to me being a mongrel hybrid. Mutha was from Blackburn & Fatha was from Hapton, so I got a broad education regarding the Lanky twang.

Aye, 10/10 here too. But I disagree with you Willow, it is a Doorstop.

No..... it is definitely a DOORSTEP, but I got it right.....10 out of 10......I put it down to my age......lots of folk talked broad lanky when I was growing up.
It was an easy quiz.
