Summary

Postman Purple is back with his big sack of Purple People correspondence! You heard it right folks, Gyles and Susie are diving into the mail bag where we are going to explore what connects airports and kitchens, what happened when Susie tried charcoal toothpaste and we have some Purple People theories on your ‘Aunt Nels’ (spoiler: includes shells and elephants). We also venture into the world of the extraterrestrial and - perhaps a purple first - learn some language of the martians. Gyles takes us on a dangerous and sadly fateful voyage with a Flawed Horny Well Worn Ghost (Gyles will reveal all!) and also coins a new term we are sure many of you will relate to, as he acknowledges himself as a ‘dent-o-phile’. - to be submitted to the OED imminently. Yours faithfully, The Purple Producers A Somethin’ Else production. We love getting your Purple Post so please email [email protected] and you might be hearing your question in your Aunt Nels in the upcoming weeks.

1:10.4	Hello, Giles here, and knowing that we have a family audience and the purple people often
1:15.2	include some very young people, just to say that today's episode does include some language
1:21.3	that some people may find uncomfortable or offensive. Hello, and welcome to another edition of
1:31.2	Something Rhymes with Purple, because something does. It's the word purple, and is it a Scottish word,
1:37.2	Susie Dent? It's a dialect word, so you'll find it in various parts of Britain, you'll find it
1:43.1	in Lancashire. I think it's been recorded in Warwickshire, and yes, it does sound Scottish. I'm
1:48.9	sure you will find it in Scotland as well, but I don't think it originated as a Scots word.
1:53.2	But it means to walk with a limp. Yes, to walk with a limp.
1:56.8	And that's what we call our podcast, and it's about words and language and the joy of language.
2:02.4	And Susie Dent and I, we meet each week these days, mostly on Zoom, and we talk about words,
2:10.3	and people around the world are generous enough to listen to us. And when I say people around the
2:15.6	world, I really do mean global. I mean, we have listeners all over the planet, and we're thrilled,
2:22.3	and you call yourselves the purple people. We think of you as our friends. So thank you very much,
2:27.4	indeed. And today we thought, because you had so much correspondence, got a backlog of it,
2:31.6	we tried to deal with some of the questions, the queries, the points that have come in.
