Special Sub-Topic: The Swedish Chef's Historical Figures


'Bar doosh be doosh be doosh ... 1938 ... be doosh ... Shhpanish leader ...'

    Franco. Franco ruled Spain until the 70's. In the later years of his life, Spain was described as a country waiting for the death of one man. If countries were ruled by amusing regional puppets, the world would be a safer place.

'Hurdy burdy burdy ... Macedonian ... burdy burdy ... conqueror ...'
    Alexander the Great. Alexander conquered huge swathes of Europe and Asia before dying young. The Swedish Chef couldn't even conquer a chicken.

'Hoody doody ... Frenchy wenchy ... shorty worty ... Waterloosshhh'
    Napoleon. Never a truer word ...

'Dooshy booshy ... Iron lady ... Blueshy Shuitsy ..'
    Margaret Thatcher. Britain's prime minister throughout the 80's, and sadly the one we're most remembered for.

'Eeee equallsssh em sheee shquared ... shhpeshal theory of relativity'
    Albert Einstein. Whenever someone tries to explain relativity to me, as far as I'm concerned they sound like the Swedish chef.

'Russhan dictatorsh ... lookshy likey Swedissshh Cheffy ... Napoleon da piggy'
    Stalin. Its just struck me how much the tyrannical Josef Stalin looked like the Swedish Chef. (The reference to Napoleon is to the pig of that name in Orwell's 'Animal Farm' which was based on Shhtalin, sorry Stalin).

'Booshdy Dooshdy ... Britishy shherial killer ... Whiteychapel ... ...'
    Jack the Ripper. The killer of several prostitutes, dubbed 'Jack the Ripper' by a London newspaper, was never identified. Pat the Slapper is not a real serial killer.

'Cherry treessshy ... doosh doosh doosh'
    George Washington. A bit easy.

'Gurdy burdy durdy ... firsty popey ... fishy wishy ... real name Shhimon'
    St Peter. History and religion in the same quiz - not bad eh?

'Bar doosh be doosh be doosh ... United Nationssh ... Shhecretary General ... Burmeesh'
    U Thant. Born on 22 January 1909 in Burma, U Thant started his career in education before moving on to the diplomatic corp. At first he served as the permanent ambassador of Burma to the UN. Eventually he served as Acting Secretary General of UN before being appointed as Secretary General of the General Assembly on 30 November 1962. (By the way, full credit to the editor - I knew none of the above information)
