In the Sweeney - what does, \" he was a bit Danish\" mean? thanks

[Quizmonster]

At a guess...Danish can mean a pastry and there's a type of that called puff pastry and puff is the original word from which a 4-letter word beginning with 'p' and ending with 'f' comes, meaning a homosexual male.
Does that fit at all with the facts of the programme?

[HowardKennitby]

Cassell's Slang Dictionary gives one meaning similar to QM's offering

[andy-hughes]

Because Quizmonster was brought up in a gentler age when people went out of their way not to upset and offend strangers unwittingly.

kevifre - let me guess - would you be below thirty in age at a guess?

Or is that just your IQ?

I was going to bed, but now I'll have to stay up.......... ;o)

Oh! Was I the subject of some offensive abuse, then? Sorry I missed that, but - if so - thanks for your intervention, Andy.
