About this deal

Composed of equal measures (one supposes) of gin, sherry, port, brandy, pudding wine, with a substantial dash bitters, this concoction is guaranteed to "insulate the drinker against the amorous attentions of the female." ("I should think it would, sir," replies Beach.) Otter's Crest, Old Monk's Bell, Sailor's Junk, Orbital, Tandoor, Riland's Dark Water, Allison's Amber a b c d McDuffee, Keith (February 5, 2008).

This may be a reference to " McAndrew's Hymn", which includes the lines "From coupler-flange to spindle-guide I see Thy Hand, O God— / Predestination in the stride o' yon connectin'-rod". [41]

While there are many fictional liquids that can be consumed, fictional liquid medicines and magical potions (such as the liquid that causes Alice to shrink in Alice in Wonderland) may not be widely available for common consumption, or may simply not be described as being used for that purpose, and thus would not be considered "beverages" at all. During the war, the Soviet Union invaded and absorbed all of Continental Europe, while the United States absorbed the British Commonwealth and later Latin America. This formed the basis of Eurasia and Oceania respectively. Due to the instability perpetuated by the nuclear war, these new nations fell into civil war, but who fought whom is left unclear (there is a reference to the child Winston having seen rival militias in the streets, each one having a shirt of a distinct colour for its members). Meanwhile, Eastasia, the last superstate established, emerged only after "a decade of confused fighting". It includes the Asian lands conquered by China and Japan. Although Eastasia is prevented from matching Eurasia's size, its larger populace compensates for that handicap. Chernow, Barbara; Vallasi, George (1993). The Columbia Encyclopedia (5thed.). Boston: Houghton Mifflin. p.2030. OCLC 334011745. As part of the viral marketing campaign, the drink Slusho! has served as a tie-in. The drink had already appeared in producer Abrams' previous creation, the TV series Alias. [33] In this short, the Three Stooges work for the beer company that manufactures this product, and end up sending barrels of it rolling through the streets.In the same year as the novel's publishing, a one-hour radio adaptation was aired on the United States' NBC radio network as part of the NBC University Theatre series. The first television adaptation appeared as part of CBS's Studio One series in September 1953. [106] BBC Television broadcast an adaptation by Nigel Kneale in December 1954. The first feature film adaptation, 1984, was released in 1956. A second feature-length adaptation, Nineteen Eighty-Four, followed in 1984, a reasonably faithful adaptation of the novel. The story has been adapted several other times to radio, television, and film; other media adaptations include theater (a musical [107] and a play), opera, and ballet. [108] Translations [ edit ] Nineteen Eighty-Four Russian version published in the Soviet Union in 1984. A limited edition, only for members of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union. Blue tide is a soft drink that has an addictive secret ingredient that triggers a police investigation. The plot was loosely based on Shakespeare's Hamlet, but the key characters were either stakeholders or employees of the company that made this beer, which was contaminated by an evil mastermind in a plot to control the world. [11] [12] Three measures of Gordon's, one of vodka, half a measure of Kina Lillet. Shake it very well until it's ice-cold, then add a large thin slice of lemon peel. Named after the original Bond girl, Vesper Lynd. Since Kina Lillet is no longer available, it can be approximated by using modern Lillet or Cocchi Americano. [7]

Nineteen Eighty-Four uses themes from life in the Soviet Union and wartime life in Great Britain as sources for many of its motifs. Some time at an unspecified date after the first American publication of the book, producer Sidney Sheldon wrote to Orwell interested in adapting the novel to the Broadway stage. Orwell wrote in a letter to Sheldon (to whom he would sell the US stage rights) that his basic goal with Nineteen Eighty-Four was imagining the consequences of Stalinist government ruling British society: Eastasia (ideology: Obliteration of the Self, also known as Death-Worship), whose core territories are " China and the countries to the south of it, the Japanese islands, and a large but fluctuating portion of Manchuria, Mongolia and Tibet".

Whether or not the Newspeak appendix implies a hopeful end to Nineteen Eighty-Four remains a critical debate. Many claim that it does, citing the fact that it is in standard English and is written in the past tense: "Relative to our own, the Newspeak vocabulary was tiny, and new ways of reducing it were constantly being devised" (p.422). Some critics ( Atwood, [46] Benstead, [47] Milner, [48] Pynchon [49]) claim that for Orwell, Newspeak and the totalitarian governments are all in the past. Type of whiskey produced in Hell, favored by demons. Can turn terrestrial fish who drink it into sea monsters.

A high-end liquor, generally depicted as being served neat. Likely analogous to brandy, in the original series it is shown alternately as either red or light brown in color, while in the re-imagined series, it is always bright green.
