An excessively stupid or unpleasant person. Derived from Joey Deacon an elderly man suffering from cerebral palsy who regularly featured on television 1980-85. Another contributor supplied the following entered verbatim: To infer that the recipient was, in some manner, mentally impaired or stupid, In widespread use (in my experience) throughout London schools in the early 1980's. Derives from Joey Deacon, an unfortunate, severely mentally handicapped man featured on children's TV show Blue Peter. Or rather, thrown in front of a camera crew & routinely patronized once a week by Simon Groom & his lover, platinum quadruped Goldie. Originally intended to improve children's understanding of the plight of the disabled. Failed. Alan wasn't too impressed with the above - also entered verbatim: I appreciate that the additional entry is verbatim from the contributor, but there are two main errors in it. First he means "imply" and not "infer" - a common mistake by joeys - and also states that Joey Deacon was severely mentally handicapped. In fact he suffered from cerebral palsy (as your main entry states) which is a physical handicap not a mental one. I would add that, round my way, the preferred gesture to accompany the call of "Joey Deacon!!" (for some reason we always used the full name) was to clap the backs of the hands together, in imitation I suppose of a physically handicapped person. Nice.

Handicapped person, flid Comes from rhyming slang .dustbin lid = kid'.
Pronounced 'Whitte-nopa-nair', Whitton Open Air School was the school for "Special" children - unfortunately no distinction was made between mentally and physically handicapped. Used a "You're gooin' ta Whitt'nopenair!" = "You're a nutcase", or "You're too-o stupid!", "You do that 'n they'll sen' you ta Whitt'nopenair!" = "That's a really stupid thing to do!", "'Ey, Whitt'nopenair!!" = "Hey,stupid", usually followed by a thrown large, hard object. The worst moment in my life was when, at age 11, my mother came into my bedroom during an illness and said "John, would you mind terribly if you had to go to Whitton Open Air?" I had had Pneumonia and pleurisy and was a serious asthmatic, and had been delirious for the week before she popped the question: a doctor had told her that I would never be able to lead a physically normal life, and would have to go to a "Special School". Ha, fie on him: I played rugby, rowed crew, ran triathlons, and have worked in and visited 50 countries, with field work from 84 deg. North down to 40 degrees South, and from 1,000 feet below sea level to 12,000 feet above sea level. A terrible moment, but it cured me of throwing epithets around forever. (ed: well done mate!!)
