well, I was bafflefished as to "Esther Rantzen" and so I googled this marvel[l]ous ref:

oh, and lest I forget here's the link to the Cockney Alphabet:

Love the link twu
Ah dear Esther, not sure she's be pleased to be so close to Enoch Powell but then that's life.
I had no idea there were so many alternatives. Just too many witty people in the world, I guess. The alternatives on my list that haven't been covered by Bridget or by tsuwm's Cockney website reference are:
E for Adam (Eve or Adam)
K for Ancis (Kaye Francis)
N for a Dig ("infra dig", beneath one's dignity)
S for Williams (Esther Williams)
U for Mism (euphemism)
Y for Heaven's Sake
Thank you tsuwm and Marty!
