Cool pic of the lovely Amanda "Alma Sedgwick" Barrie, Consumer Monkey. Moz fans should be aware of this link; Amanda played Cleopatra in "Carry on Cleo" alongside Sid James, which more than likely inspired the line in "Some Girl Are Bigger Than Others". "Oh I say" was a catchphrase of the late Kenneth "matron" Williams, also of "Carry On" and "Barclays Bank" fame. Ms Barrie has played Alma Sedgwick / Baldwin in British TV Soap "Coronation Street" for about 15 years now, which takes us along to "Alma Matters", which is what Morrissey probably intended us to think. Oh, and Ms Barrie also presented spooky mid-Seventies childrens' puppet TV show "Hickory House", in which inanimate objects (such as "Humphrey Cushion" and "Dusty Mop") came alive and had adventures. Scared the plasma out of me when I was a 5 year old...

Thanks so much, guys! As an American, some of Morrissey's references are lost on me (though I try my best to learn about them). I didn't know about "Oh, I say" being a Williams catch-phrase, for instance.

I thought "Oh I say" was the catchphrase of Charles Hawtrey. Talking of whom, I recently saw a book with a picture of the author who looked just like Charles Hawtrey called something like "The man who was mistaken for Charles Hawtrey" or something. There was a small comment by Morrissey on the back, where he says "I very much approve" or something. Does anyone know anything about this?¿ Cool pic of the lovely Amanda "Alma Sedgwick" Barrie,¿ Consumer Monkey.

Both Hawtrey and Williams used it. Just watch "Carry on Nurse", for example.
