Well, I didn't, until I read the link.
I thought the cod in codpiece was as in "not the genuine article", e.g. cod Latin.
My scrotum always speaks proper Latin.

Highlights:
Cod is slang for scrotum.
15th century joke: “A woman was asked what kind of penises women preferred, big or small or medium-sized. She answered: ‘Medium ones are the best.’ When asked the reason, she replied: ‘Because there aren’t any big ones’.”

It's all of it, Cough.
The manky thick tights, the mincing, the silly pointy feet, the wavy arm-y stuff, the flouncy jumping, the three inch layers of clownish slap, the fact that it's taken so seriously.

Cod pieces, they wear Cod pieces? I never became a ballet dancer because i thought i would never match up to those big boys and now I have just found they had assistance.

In all seriousness I have never seen better than Fred Astaire he oozes class and is simply brilliant.
The Nicholas brothers with Cab Calloway is unbelievable.

CLIVE: Er, I met this cunt in, about eight years back and, er, he come up with the name of 'John Stitch'. He come up to me. He said, "I'm John Stitch and I, I do non-stop dancing." DEREK: What a cunt. CLIVE: The fucker. I said, "You do non-stop dancing?" He said, "Yeah." I said, "Why, why have you, why have, why are you not dancing now?" DEREK: Right. CLIVE: He said he's out of a job. So I said, "All right, Non-Stop Dancer, ..... DEREK: Cunt. CLIVE: ..... start dancing." And do you know what he did? DEREK: What? CLIVE: Started dancing.

My wife likes Strictly for the razzmattaz; I'll watch it but only to see Darcy Bussell and that girl Katya something, both of whom float my boat.
