Spike Milligan giving Paul Merton a run for his money as the old Goon tries to rid the world of Muzak, soap operas and Portsmouth.
From an internet forum - I think the spike milligan one is the best. Especially when he put his own house in.
Portsmouth was nominated by Spike Milligan as one of the things to be put into Room 101.
The original Room 101 was in George Orwell's 1984, a place where people people were tortured.
In the TV program of the same name, celebrity guests can put things they hate into Room 101, but only if they can persuade the presenter, Paul Merton, and the audience.
In this case, Portsmouth got admitted. Ironically, one of the other Goons, Peter Sellers, was born in Southsea, although I am not sure how much time her actually spent here - his parents traveled around a lot, performing in different theaters.
