In the otherwise excellent C5 documentary about Chernobyl I just wish that the producer has told narrator Ben Fogle that the word is pronounced "new-clear", NOT "new-queue-lar"!!☹

Reminiscent of the Exeter Uni rag mag joke of yesteryear that the interview to go to the Uni is:

Lecturer: Prounounce A-I-R
Student: Air
L: Pronounce H-A-I-R
S: Hair
L: Pronounce L-A-I-R
S: Lair
L: Now could you put them together in a sentence
S: Air-hair-lair, welcome to Exeter

When I watched Crimson Tide last night Denzel Washington referred to new-queue-lar hawl-oh-cawst
