Have you come across any modern examples of Cockney rhyming slang recently? Here are a few that I have overheard on the shaven these last few weeks. (shaven pube = Tube)
"My favourite ever piece of cinematography is that scene in Ben Hur with the Ainsley race" (Ainsley Harriot = chariot) "The Greek economy is just going round and round in Angelas" (Angela Merkels = circles) "Armitage a lot for the HMV gift voucher you gave me for Christmas" (Armitage Shanks = thanks) |

Some more:
"No, people shouldn't be able to marry their pets. That's totally Lance." (Lance Armstrong - wrong) "I'm off to see a Barack production of Hair." (Barack Obama - amateur drama) Also: "I wish China would let Barack back to his homeland of Tibet." (Barack Obama - the Dalai Lama). "Oh would you shut up! You're so Hermann!" (Hermann Goering - boring) |

"That's a nice bunch of Beyonces in this picnic."
(Beyonce Knowles - sausage rolls) "That zebra looks more like a Lady." (Lady Gaga - quagga*) "I spotted a few Simons in the woods last night." (Simon Cowell - barn owl) *a quagga is an extinct species of zebra |
