Only if you are very broad-minded, click here for the various vulgar explanations of the word, one of them at least being vastly older than the 'Captain Pugwash' TV programme.
I have fond childhood memories of Captain Pugwash and always thought it was a clever reference to the Pugwash Conferences on Science and World Affairs, an international organization that brings together scholars and public figures to work towards reducing the danger of armed conflict and to seek solutions to global security threats.
Incidentally, the University of Portsmouth's student magazine is called Pugwash. I hope it's named after the Captain.
