Cultural References
In a 2011 episode of the Internet sitcom Mid Morning Matters with Alan Partridge, digital radio DJ Alan and his co-host Zoe hold a 'Celebrity Forced Mating' text-in contest. The idea of the contest is to speculate on the appearance and character of two given celebrities' offspring. One text suggests the mating of Dickinson and Kylie Minogue to create an Oompa Loompa, with (as Alan puts it) Minogue contributing the small stature and Dickinson providing the skin colour and facial features.
Audio grabs from Bargain Hunt and other associated Dickinson programs were used on Australian radio program Get This.

Famous quotes containing the word cultural:
“Somehow we have been taught to believe that the experiences of girls and women are not important in the study and understanding of human behavior. If we know men, then we know all of humankind. These prevalent cultural attitudes totally deny the uniqueness of the female experience, limiting the development of girls and women and depriving a needy world of the gifts, talents, and resources our daughters have to offer.”
—Jeanne Elium (20th century)
