The cheap gold jewelry in which a Cockney Wanker wears is manufactured by a catalog retailer that is a subsidiary of which company?
Cockney Wanker Cockney Wanker is a character created by Graham Dury and Simon Thorpe in "Viz" based on a stereotyped male Cockney. Wanker speaks in rhyming slang (often slang invented by the writers) and spends his days drinking and selling stolen or unworkable goods to passers-by from an East End market stall. Another of Wanker's specialities is trading used cars. Playing upon the stereotype of the indigenous population of London being fantasists, Wanker often buys a car, sells it back to the same person, for the same amount of money, then declares the transaction to have been "A nice little earner!" He wears cheap gold jewellery or Argos bling and 'Laahndan' gangster dark glasses, and is often seen smoking a cigar.
