I bet that this was the point were Warwick Davis began questioning some of his life choices.

Any kind of sport is bound to develop a jargon of its own that’s at least somewhat incomprehensible to non-fans…but cricket is really on a completely different level than other sports in that regard. If you read a newspaper report of a football game or tennis match without any knowledge of the sport, you’ll still be able to get the gist of what happened on the field – if you read a report on a cricket match, you won’t have any idea what happened. You won’t even be able to tell which team was doing better. Trust me, I’ve tried.

That being said, some bits of cricket jargon made it into wider prominence, and one of those is ‘sticky wicket’. Probably just because it sounds weird. I strongly suspect that a sticky wicket in cricket has nothing to do with gluing an Ewok to the playing field…but, frankly, I can’t completely rule out even that. So in case that this isn’t actually a gag, but rather just something that’s a standard feature of playing cricket, I’m sorry.

Mopey, in the meantime, is feeling conflicted about her outfit. It’s not that it’s uncomfortable, or that she doesn’t enjoy her current work on at least some level…she just has that lingering feeling that in an earlier life she would have strenuously objected to putting on any kind of outfit associated with an outdated ideal of demure femininity.

More on Thursday.
