An abscence of vowels does not a good Scrabble word make.

For example, antidisestablishmentarianism > rhythms.

antidisestablishmentarianism > 15 letters long, so bad for Scrabble

QI - good choice

I'll go with Rising Damp, despite the hideous 70's racism...

That took a lot for an Englishman to say after this weekend.

I can't remember a game where England put out their first team and ever got such a slapping. Almost as bad as Wales vs Scotland...

And I wouldhave gone for Tony O'Reilly. Great player, and then became Mr Heinz!

And for Q - John Douglas, 9th Marquess of Queensberry

The League of Gentlemen - done in the US
(i am hoping every Brit who knows the programme is trying to imagine how it would turn out now.
I see it set in the town on Paulie Shores in Louisiana. Papa Lazarou would feature heavily. I am trying to work out how The Dentons would work...)
