Can we change the title of this article? In Radio Times and on the LP it is always billed as "Hello Cheeky" (not "Hello, Cheeky!").

Punctuation

[edit]

What is the correct punctuation for the show's title? The article uses four different ones at different points:

  • Hello, Cheeky!
  • Hello Cheeky!
  • Hello Cheeky
  • Hello, Cheeky

Which is the right one? P Ingerson (talk) 19:39, 26 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Everything I can find (TV show caption, magazine covers, pretty much every "comedy history" or "radio history" website, and even BBC7) just uses Hello Cheeky, no punctuation at all... Bangdrum (talk) 00:24, 27 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Not a pun

[edit]

"Enoch Powell sent me a draught board for Christmas. Trouble is, all the squares are white." is not a pun. A pun relies on a word having two meanings. An example is "I once spent an evening with twelve Benedictines. What happened? I drank them all and fell over". 86.144.179.159 (talk) 18:36, 15 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
