but they kept calling it a melon. Since when do melons look like that or get grown in the UK or entered in veg shows?

"She's right....."

They should take points off for the BAFTA awards judging.

The American Expats say it is a marrow in the UK version. Apparently this was the only word that needed "translating". They'd have been better using "squash" rather than melon, though, don't you think? And I'm pretty sure all but the dumbest of the dumb would have been able to make the association between the large green vegetable and the word marrow after only 2 or 3 of the many named appearances of said vegetable. :roll:

Does BAFTA do a best fruit and veggie thing too? :wink:
There goes the Golden Carrot..... :shock:

Seriously though, I thought it was a marrow even my missus couldnt believe it was a water melon :???:
