Episode 3

Neil Innes has fun beside the seaside, exploring words and sayings which take him from cockle-fishing to Cockney rhyming slang. Southend, and neighbouring Leigh-on-Sea in Essex, prove the perfect places to enjoy a range of traditional seaside delights from making candy floss and playing bingo, to having his fortune told and joining the fancy footwork at the Cliff Bandstand where he finds out how dances like the rumba, fox-trot and waltz got their names.
