Quite!

Roger, what was the name of the eponymous small-time Cockney conman character that Adam Faith played in the long-running TV series in the 70's?

Ian Cuthbertson was in it, as a Glasgow villain called Charlie, and made a series of TV adverts for Agnews off-licenses as a spin-off with his character.
I apologise, in advance.

I'm going to Manila in a couple of weeks, Roger. What does that word remind you of?

I asked the questions, Roger, so when you reply, specifically direct the answer to me. Thank you.

And after that, Peepmaster has a confession to make.

Me neither.

But what if you had more than one letter, Roger?

Roger's answer, as it stands, doesn't go with either of my questions:

"What do you send your letters in, Roger?"

and

"I'm going to Manila in a couple of weeks, Roger. What does that word remind you of?"

Fish might be the same singular and plural, but most words aren't!

Roger?
