My guess was that Parmo is some kind of milk of magnesia deal.

Ironic that you would use a pic of Martin Freeman to reply to a comment about Benedict Cumberbatch. :P
Experience bij!

OK, the unfortunate name aside, why does that mean actor?

London.  :cool:

Yi, it is asking you to choose one of his performances.

Yesterday, upon the stair,
I met a man who wasn't there
He wasn't there again today
I wish, I wish he'd go away...

WTF is "Parmo?"
I had to look it up. Apparently it's a fried breadcrumbed chicken topped with cheesy bechamel sauce. A fast food delicacy of Middlesbrough :)
Let's bomb Russia!

I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein's brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.

What exactly does kebab mean?

In American English it usually refers to shish kebab, meat and veg on a skewer, but obviously it means something more general.

Kebab means "meat", IIRC. So Döner Kebab would be rotating meat in Turkish (like Gyros):



A döner kebab in Germany/Austria usually means that meat on a sandwich:



In Germany the sandwich would be called in short "Döner", in Austria "Kebab".
