I actually thought it was Roger? It was all innuendos wasn't it like Master Bates, and Roger the cabin boy - get it? I must be wrong then - let me know if you get the quiz right :)

Roger, Master Bates, Seaman Staines et al - all an urban myth. Victor Lewis-Smith is one of many people who claim credit for coming up with it. See the ever-reliable Snopes for more: http://www.snopes.com/radiotv/tv/pugwash.htm

Thanks mikewith - now I know! I think it was my boyfriend who told me so I'll take pleasure in correcting him!! :)

Tom. Don't fall for the scam about the programme being full of sexual innuendo. It wasn't. That was put about by dirty-minded people who had never watched it.
