Sorry, I pretty much intend to own the copyright.

But not to Biggus Dickus

I was watching yet another repeat of 'Flog it!' two or three evenings ago and an elderly, but very sharp, lady pitched up with some silver ware to dispose of. Her name was Mrs Theakston and she was a member of the brewing family of the same name. She explained that the beer took its name from the 'Peculier Court of Masham' (Yorkshire) which was an ecclesiastical court that enabled the parish to govern its own affairs, independent of the rest of the diocese.

Now, that was worth waiting for, wasn't it?
