Tutankhamun
Anyone noticed the ITV Continuity Announcers are pronouncing this programme as "Too-Tank-Car-Moon". I always believed it to be "Too-Tank-Carmen". What Say You?

The British museum held an exhibition of Tutankhamun back in 1972; it was quite a big event at the time. I recall a news story in which a family arrived at one of London’s main-line rail terminals and took a taxi – asking for ‘Tutankham un’. After a longer journey than they were expecting, their taxi eventually arrived at Tooting Common.
