IFix a Pop Star - S3-E13

Character mistake: Sam says that "Ginger Fox USED to be good; then she hopped onto the crazy train and ended up on has-been island," (or something of that sort). Freddie then says that "technically, you can't take a train to an island, because they are surrounded by water." This is untrue, because technically, Manhattan is also an island, and there are MANY trains that go to and from this island.

Questions

Show generally

Question: I need someone from across the pond to help settle an argument between me and my wife. In the episode "i Rock the Vote", Wade Collins repeatedly uses the term "hob knocker." My kids asked, "What's a 'hob knocker'?" I said that it was something they made up that sounds somewhat British, probably insulting, and possibly vulgar. My wife insists that she has heard it somewhere else. So, for the record, what, if anything, does "hob knocker" mean?

Answer: In direction translation it means 'Mischievous Spirit'. 'Hob' as in HobGoblin means clown or prankster, and 'Knocker' was an old age term for Poltergeists in mines. Miners would often complain of hearing knocking sounds down mines when there was no-one else down there, hence 'Knocker'. It's not a regular English expression though.
