It is from a show called stoppit and tidyup from back in the 80s. You might be too young to remember (in fact, the character is such a minor one that even people who did watch the show might not remember him) but here is a refresher.

I think we might not have had this in the states.

Probably not, it was one of the strange and eccentric English cartoons from that age.
I thought you were from another country though?

What is a footing duty?
I watched it too, it seems extra exciting at new year - he is a good host - he makes the audience feel like they are a part of it all.

To first foot, is to be the first to put your foot through the door of a house. Which basically means, a bunch of drunk people drifting from house to house till the party dies off.....usually about the 2nd of January 😛

You must be fairly fit then, most of the houses in scotland are miles apart (unless you live in one of the cities)

Smoked hog jowls when fried up taste like bacon. We have some in the blackeyed peas and some in the collards. And also some fried up. 🙂
