OP My American colleague has been showing his young son such TV classics as 'Thomas the Tank Engine' and 'Andy Pandy'. Apparently in one episode of Andy Pandy, someone (I forgot to ask whether it was Andy Pandy himself or Looby Loo) uttered the sentence "I'll give it a go".
Although the proud father said he understood the expression from the context he also claimed never to have heard it before. Any comments from our North American contingent?
