What term would you yourself use for the assumption that the audience is a
bit thick? There's plenty of it about, after all.

Weather forecasts that Baldrick and Prince George might understand.

PG: Ghastly weather out there, Blackadder.
Bl: On the contrary, sir. The sun is shining, the birds are singing
and all is well with the world.
PG: Well, damn and blast it, what's the point of staying in bed until
4 in the afternoon to avoid those spits and spots if I went out and
about.
Bl: Of spits, I know not, but spots? Ah, Baldrick, what a coincidence!
Ba: Yes, sir. Everyone spits at me when I walk in the gutter and I've
had spots from the word go.
PG: Crikey, since lunchtime?
Bl: No sir, for you the word go means about 7 in the evening.

Then don't read them, and if your hear them on TV or radio, turn the sound
down. Alas you (nor I) are not in a position to say what terminology anyone
can/should use.

--Due to financial crisis the light at the end of the tunnel is switched off--

what, and leave out

"absolutely"
"basically"
"indeed"
"increasingly"
"regards"
"best regards"
"warm regards"

or any pronounciation of "th" as "f"?
