High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Polari (or alternatively Parlare, Parlary, Palare, Palarie, Palari; from Italian parlare, "to talk") was a form of cant slang used in Britain by actors, circus and fairground showmen, criminals, prostitutes, and latterly by the gay subculture. It was popularised in the 1950s and 1960s by camp characters Julian and Sandy in the popular BBC radio shows Beyond our Ken and Round the Horne. There is some debate about its origins, but it can be traced back to at least the 19th century, and possibly the 16th century. There is a longstanding connection with Punch and Judy street puppet performers who traditionally used Polari to converse.
