Pardon My English! looks into some of the shadier recesses of the English language, considering the slang terms used by different professions and sectors of society, the slang used in different countries and different parts of Britain, and the development of slang over the centuries. In doing so, it covers a huge variety of words, ranging from quaint archaisms to industrial-strength expletives. |

In his final hours in the Oval Office, the outgoing President grants a controversial last-minute pardon to Joel Backman, a notorious Washington power broker who has spent the last six years hidden away in a federal prison. What no one knows is that the President issues the pardon only after receiving enormous pressure from the CIA. It seems Backman, in his power broker heyday, may have obtained secrets that compromise the world’s most sophisticated satellite surveillance system.
