    Which two word exclamatory phrase is addressed to a horse in the title of a 1950s song but years before had a special place in the history of English confectionery?

    Question #58614. Asked by gmackematix. (Aug 01 05 10:15 AM)

    		I reckon gmack is referring to Blackpool Rock and the words of the 1951 song 'Whoa Emma'.

    		It was indeed "Whoa Emma", the first words in seaside rock, though I'm not sure if the phrase originated there.

This place is now noted for a musical and literary festival. At which house is it, and why would Jake be relevant but not Jacob?
