Synopsis

Think you know your apples and pears from your dog and bone?

The Cockney Rhyming Slang Quiz Book is packed with 240 entertaining and challenging questions designed to test, stretch and occasionally stump even the most confident slang expert.

Across 12 varied rounds, you’ll explore:

• classic East End expressions

• lesser-known traditional rhymes

• modern and celebrity-inspired slang

• tricky double meanings and context-based questions

From straightforward definitions to fiendish final-round challenges, this book builds in difficulty as you go—making it perfect for casual readers, pub quizzes, or anyone who enjoys wordplay with a twist.

But be warned…

Cockney rhyming slang isn’t fixed. Meanings evolve, phrases change, and some answers might spark debate—that’s all part of the fun. This quiz embraces the living nature of the language while focusing on the most widely recognised and well-attested meanings.

Whether you’re a Londoner, a language lover, or just someone who enjoys a proper brain-teaser, this book will have you guessing, laughing and learning along the way.

So grab a cuppa, gather your mates, and see if you can sort the real rhymes from the red herrings.

You might just surprise yourself.
