Unknown word combination and names

[Igor Lazarev]

What does it mean: "Storm off", "a doo-wop band", "a horrible Jack Osbourne do", "a pair of Marigolds"? Who is Eamonn Holmes.
All these words and name are from "Smashhits" Oct 1- Oct 14, 2004.

[Sidle Jinks]

1. Eamonn Holmes is a former anchorman of BBC1's Open-Air program. More about him you can read at http://indie.imdb.com/name/nm0391810/, http://www.normanphillips.co.uk/eamonn_holmes_bio.htm. Or just Google.

2. storm off means to leave a place angrily (taken from http://www.usingenglish.com/reference/phrasal-verbs/storm-off.html)

3. doo-wop is a genre (usually a cappella) of Black vocal-harmony music of the 1950s that evolved in New York City from gospel singing; characterized by close four-part harmonies; the name derived from some of the nonsense syllables sung by the backup

4. a pair of Marigolds - possibly depends on the context in which it is used. Marigold Idustrials produces gloves (including protective gloves), though I doubt that it is what you need. There is a band called Marigold (see their website http://www.marigoldgo.com/ :) )

Hope this helps.

Good luck!
