Tarks has nailed it. Roger, as a bladelled master of humourous writing, will be aware of pretty much every word in the English language.

"that" is a real word.

It's a demonstrative pronoun (pl. "Those"), which usually points out, or refers to, a person or thing previously mentioned, or supposed to be understood. "That", as a demonstrative, may precede the noun to which it refers.
