The BEST new word for DU-ers comes from BBC's game show...
The word comes from a game where you have to merge two words SEAMLESSly to make a new one.

The winner was FRAUDCAST, as in, NEWS FRAUDCAST....

go to bbc radio, then click on on the show called Dead Ringers. It's in the first few minutes...

Dead Ringers (30 min)
Broadcast on BBC7 - Fri 18 Mar - 08:30

Dirty Den visits You and Yours to talk about the protection daffodils can give you against Sudden Death. From September 2003.

Thanks BBC!
