If there's anyone out there that isn't familiar with Radio 4s "I'm sorry I haven't a clue" - it often features a round entitled "Uxbridge English Dictionary" - as opposed to be somewhat better known Oxford version.
The players take turns in coming up with definitions of words that may be a tad off the mark. Hopefully most of these haven't already been used on the show (I didn't nick any, honest!)
Abacus – Swedish pop quartet use unsuitable language
Abattoir – French trio impersonate Swedish group
Adroit – Brummies agree on correctness of advertisement
Antifreeze - when she's too big to consume in one meal (see Munchkin)
Artichokes – Mr. Garfunkel splutters and coughs
Bastion - tiny but unpopular charged particle
Behold - a hive
Cemented – driven mad by sailors
Conclusion – Magician makes nose disappear
Confine – the scam is working well
Confluence – Faked hypnosis
Conjoin – blend together more than one scam
Constrain – Transport prisoners by rail
Continental - be driven mad by Europeans
Contraband – Nicaraguan musical group
Convergence – Lead a man to falsely believe he is the first
Convince – Appropriate Van Gogh’s money by deception
Convulsion – A deep dislike of Tories
