I didn't get the joke, so if someone could explain it to me I'd be grateful. (I don't remember the joke, just that I didn't get it).

There was - I don't remember what it was either, but it was a play on Malteser (there was a small round chocolate ball mentioned) and con, and also possibly fall...

Ah I see - yes, the elements you mention do ring a bell.

It was part of a charades on the radio section. They had to act out a scene that led to the answer 'The Maltese Falcon'. Am's right, they mentioned Maltesers etc... but I too can't really remember the whole thing although I do recall laughing as I drove home with it on in the car.

now how on earth do you do charades on the radio?

OK - they call it charades, but I suppose it's more like giving cryptic (aural, obviously) clues. It's never as funny when you need to explain it, is it?

Still, it's easier to understand than the rules of Mornington Crescent!

lol! ok!!! I'll have to take it on authority!

But I do like that male swimmer pic! And that cutie pie Freddie Mercury is pictured in the second half.

Yeah, painful charades, but interesting pics in the video.

or... maybe that is only the beginning of the punishment !

Gosh how I love a good punishment! Perhaps I should write "Being a persistent pest is particularly unseemly and not at all nice." one hundred times on the chalkboard? Or how about forcing me to watch (with eyes open) 5 minutes of Teletubbies? Or maybe just a good spanking? Just don't mention ABBA, please.
