Apple roll

[vakayu]

William Tell was swiss and he knocked the apple off son's head ie it rolled.

[pixie373]

...(role)

[TheWinner]

William Tell (or Wilhelm Tell) was a Swiss hero, and roll refers to a role in a film.

[grasscarp]

Or what about Apple Loaf (cake) since loaf is a slang word for head and it was an apple on a head.

The apple couldn't roll as it was pierced by an arrow. Swiss Roll is better, in my humble opinion.

[Mojo-Jo-Jo]

I think Pixie and the Winner are right. Sorry Grasscarp.

[grasscarp]

never mind. I tried!

[Mojo-Jo-Jo]

oh hang on. William Tell was Swiss. Didn't know that. shame on me.
Swiss roll it is.

[Mojo-Jo-Jo]

I was wrong too. Even sorrier Grasscarp.

Thanks pixie373, vakayu & TheWinner for your very prompt & helpful replies.
Like you pixie373 I thought the answer was Apple Roll but can see the logic now of Swiss Roll.
