Uxbridge English Dictionary

The BBC Radio 4 panel show Sorry I Haven't A Clue is one of my personal favourites. And within the show, the highlight, for me is the round titled 'The Uxbridge English Dictionary' where panelists offer new definitions. This thread is a homage to the wonderful game.

Please offer any definitions you have come across yourself and enjoy the submissions of others.
