Yes, cliffs, and probably as a substitute for the White Cliffs of Dover, I'd guess.

A fish. Also known as St Peter's Fish, although I think that's only when served in a certain manner.

It's in one of my favourite books. ;)

Okay, something I read in Metro a few days ago, so I can't entirely vouch for it's accuracy:

We all know Humphrey Lyttelton as the host of our favourite radio show. But what term for an upper-class loud git did his fans at the 100 Club give rise to when his jazz band played there in the 1950s?

Spot on. The name comes from the blokes who used to shout "Hooray!" during breaks between tunes. I knew I'd given too many clues, I should have asked who the jazz player in question was. ;)

Over to you...
