  • How Bona to Varda Your Dolly Old Eke
    How bona to varda your dolly old eke RI LA PO Polari (also seen as 'Palare') is a gay slang lan- guage, which has now almost died out. It was more common in the 1930s to the 1960s when gays had more need of a private slang. Po- lari itself was never clearly defined: an ever- changing collection of slang from various sources including Italian, English (backwards slang, rhym- ing slang), circus slang, canal-speak, Yiddish and Gypsy languages. RI LA PO A bit of vocabulary acqua water bijou small bona good cackle speak chavie child dolly pleasant dowry a lot, much eke face fakement thing fang carsey dentist fantabulosa excellent lally leg lattie house mince walk munge darkness nanti no, nothing ogle fakes spectacles omi man palone woman riah hair troll go varda see, look The Bible in Polari The whole of the Bible has been trans- lated into Polari Here’s Genesis Chapter 1.

  • The Pirates and Pop Music Radio
    SELLING THE SIXTIES Was pirate radio in the sixties a non-stop psychedelic party – an offshore discothèque that never closed? Or was there more to it than hip radicalism and floating jukeboxes? From the mavericks in the Kings Road and the clubs ofSohotothemultinationaladvertisers andbigbusiness boardrooms Selling the Sixties examines the boom of pirate broadcasting in Britain. Using two contrasting models of unauthorized broadcasting, Radios Caroline and London, Robert Chapman situates offshore radio in its social and political context. In doing so, he challenges many of the myths which have grown up around the phenomenon. The pirates’ own story is framed within an examination of commercial precedents in Europe and America, the BBC’s initial reluctance to embrace pop culture, and the Corporation’s eventual assimilation of pirate programming into its own pop service, Radio One. Selling the Sixties utilizes previously unseen evidence from the pirates’ own archives, revealing interviews with those directly involved, and rare audio material from the period. This fascinating look at the relationship between unauthorized broadcasting and the growth of pop culture will appeal not only to students of communications, mass media, and cultural studies but to all those with an enthusiasm for radio history, pop, and the sixties. Robert Chapman’s broadcasting experience includes BBC local radio in Bristol and Northampton. He has also contributed archive material to Radios One and Four. He is currently Lecturer and Researcher in the Department of Performing Arts and Media Studies at Salford College of Technology.

  • Polari: a Sociohistorical Study of the Life and Decline of a Secret Language
    Polari: A sociohistorical study of the life and decline of a secret language. Heather Taylor Undergraduate Dissertation 2007 The University of Manchester A dissertation submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of B.A. Hons. in English Language and Linguistics in the University of Manchester 56951580 1 Aims & Introduction The objective of the following investigation is to examine the history of the secret in- group language Polari from a sociolinguistic perspective. This will include looking at the history and uses of this lexicon and the factors which led to its rise, and eventually to its decline. A key question posed by this investigation is the extent to which Polari survives today and the type of presence, if any, it has in contemporary gay culture. This will be done through a critical review of the available data on the topic and also by investigating the capacity in which Polari survives today (specifically focussing on whether it is present in the media and entertainment or in the internet community). Secret languages are fascinating to linguists’ curiosity, and Polari is a particularly interesting subject because of the rich tapestry of interwoven sources which build this unique lexicon, and the fact that it has been ‘off-limits’ to outsiders until very recently. The variety discovered in the lexicon is indicative of the fascinating history of Polari – a story of different itinerant groups meeting and trading lexical items along the way. It is interesting to trace how a language with its origins in the cant of thieves and travelling tradesmen, used to conceal criminal activity, came to be the exuberant carrier of gay identity in the mid-twentieth century.

  • Light Entertainment
    Light Entertainment Andrew O’Hagan writes about child abuse and the British public On 23 May 1949, Lionel Gamlin, producer of the Light Programme’s Hello Children, wrote to Enid Blyton to ask whether she would be willing to be interviewed about the best holiday she could remember. ‘Dear Mr Gamlin,’ Blyton wrote the next day. ‘Thank you for your nice letter. It all sounds very interesting but I ought to warn you of something you obviously don’t know, but which has been well known in the literary and publishing world for some time – I and my stories are completely banned by the BBC as far as children are concerned.’ From Room 432 at Broadcasting House, Gamlin later received a memo addressed to him by Derek McCulloch, the producer and presenter of Children’s Hour. McCulloch was known to every child growing up between the mid-1930s and 1950 as ‘Uncle Mac’ and was as famous to them as anyone could be. The memo was marked ‘Enid Blyton Stories’ and, in red, ‘strictly confidential and urgent’. ‘I will be grateful,’ McCulloch wrote, ‘if you would first discuss with me should you be considering the inclusion of material by the above author. I am most anxious that no conflicts in policy shall get loose, not only to our embarrassment, but to yours also.’ Gamlin was a company man and he clearly got the point. ‘In spite of the desire voiced by some of the children who wrote,’ Gamlin replied, ‘I have no intention of using any material by the above author, as I think I mentioned to you after I had first approached her without knowing your policy in the matter.
