QUIZ QUESTION

At which Brigg hostelry could you 'Ask Les' for a pint?
The answer is The Britannia, in Wrawby Street. But before you say: "Hang on - surely it should be 'Ask Phil' (mine host Phil Clipson) we should point out that 'Ask Les' refers to the lettering on a sign outside the front door of the popular hostelry.
Some joker has rubbed out letters from 'Cask Ales' to leave 'Ask Les'.
Maybe he, or she, was inspired by the TV comedy classics Fawlty Towers and the Rise and Fall of Reginald Perrin. They both a running joke at the beginning of episodes, where the letters outside Basil's hotel and Reggie's factory would be re-arranged to spell something funny.
