I read a post on-line by one of the characters in the skit (don’t recall which) that said much of the slang was made up on the spot. Some of the slang is real. Some is rhyming slang. Mincers is mince pies = eyes. Bounced a few Gregories: Gregory Pecks = cheques ie pass dud cheques. West Ham is West Ham reserves or nerves as in this is getting on my nerves. “Played a few strokes” might be a cricketing reference to being a success as a crim ie making a good shot/putting one “passed the keeper”. One website says Hans Christian Anderson is British slang for a policeman who forges evidence to get a conviction. Hans Christian Anderson is apparently British slang for a liar. North is north and south = mouth. Shell-like as in shell-like ear. Snowman might be a reference to cocaine dealer. Sky is sky rockets = pockets. “Shanks it” is shank’s pony ie on foot. GBH on the ear holes is grievous bodily harm ie he heard some important info. Sky rockets full of Charlie ie pockets full of coke. Slimy on the Bill: hates police. Charlie I believe is heroin. River Ouse may be rhyming slang for booze. Tooled up = armed. Gorilla is British slang for a hired enforcer, a thug. Daffodil is British slang for a naïve and innocent young man. This makes sense eg the police don’t want to have to charge a person who’s simply naive - you don't need a daffodil to waste your time. It would complicate their life charging a small-time crook. “Fitted up like a toff at Tommy Nutters” is a reference to the famous Savile Row suit designer ie he is being “fitted up” with a crime he didn’t commit.

It's a fairly tale. I was in the pub having a dump the police burst through the door. . They start blaming me for a dealing drugs. I'm in a jam. As soon as he sees my face he is all over Me. . I try and open my mouth to have a word with him and he is stuffing the drugs into my pocket. Then I get arrested the hands are behind my back and the handcuffs are on. This is not my style I'm not a drug dealer I'm a thief. . Thats the jist of the first bit.
