She ruled out Les' and Alan's definition and settled on Wendy's as the correct meaning of the word, at which point there was a bit of unplanned levity, as Wendy apparently couldn't find the answer card in the holder in front of her on the desk.
Alan's team took turns defining the word, but of course only one of them was telling the truth.
Alan said it is a sort of bush with a special kind of nut.

 Alan Coren
It pretty much goes without saying that Alan Coren is one of the best humorists in modern Britain.
His columns in The Times and his contributions to The News Quiz are sharp as hell, and he's one of the last great exponents of a rich vein of middle-class middle-brow humour.
The regime of Amin was amongst the most unpleasant and violent of the 20th Century, a fact that doesn't rule out the possibility of mockery, but Coren's version comes damn close to being a Minstrel caricature of a fl man, belittling the atrocities and doing nothing to oppose the evil.
