    That irritating dating advert where the young ladies collar and cuffs don't match was filmed at Sutton railway station.
    Sad, but I genuinely tried to see what station that was when it came on the TV

    That's no longer true since you just increased the percentage with that made-up fact.

    Pork scratching are in fact pig’s foreskins.

    Pigs are Jewish (hence Jews not eating pork) and are circumcised at birth and the remaining skin is fried and sold off to pubs etc
    File that under 'urban myth'.

    you can file it under made up out of boredom if you really fucking want to

    45) Blackadder IV was filmed in a real air raid shelter and the final scene on the battlefield was filmed at Danson Park.
    This is just silly. I attended the recording of one of the Blackadder IV series (the one about General Melchett's pigeon) and can assure you it was filmed at the BBC TV centre. It was set in the trenches anyway, not an air raid shelter.

    Dave steady on fella....there are dozens of recipes on the net re how to make Pork Scratchings and you won't find pigs foreskins mentioned anywhere...it's a myth, take a look for yourself.
    Sorry you got so upset....I don't know why you should?
