He certainly did.
The 'Nottingham' intro came round this week. It's mildly funny in a tittering schoolboy way, and I remembered it well but Humph's deadpan delivery made it hilarious anyway.
"It's well documented in official records that the City's original name was 'Snottingham', or 'Home of Snots', but when the Normans came, they couldn't pronounce the letter 'S', so decreed the town be called 'Nottingham' or the 'Home of Notts'. It's easy to understand why this change was resisted so fiercely by the people of Scunthorpe."
