Polo is spot on,

BANNISTER:

Ohh. But they say the bridge is under water. The River Foot has risen seven inches.

CRUN:

No Min, the River Severn has risen foot inches.

BANNISTER:

How can a river rise its foot inches?

CRUN:

Who’s talking about a river with feet?!

BANNISTER:

Don’t you raise your voice to me, Chummy!

Answer 5

Think I'd just have to bow to Polo's superior knowledge on the subject.

I remember Spotty Millie Bannister very well, but who the h**l was Henry? Don't remember him at all.
