Episode 6 - S1.E6

He doesn't eat his hat, but presenter Neil Innes does tuck into a curry when AWAY WITH WORDS takes a closer look at what the English language owes to foreign cultures and far-away places like the sub-continent of India. Heading for Luton and Bedford, Neil finds himself on a journey which takes him from a Hindu temple to a hat factory, and ends with him rubbing shoulders with Royalty. There is an introduction to the oldest surviving written language of all when Neil visits Luton's Hindu Mandir Temple, and goes on to discover that everyday words like juggernaut, pundit and ginger all share their origins in ancient Sanskrit.
