Recurring in-jokes in Private Eye Recurring in-jokes in Private Eye The fortnightly British satirical magazine "Private Eye" has long had a reputation for using euphemistic and irreverent substitute names and titles for people, groups and organisations and has coined a number of expressions to describe sex, drugs, alcohol and other aspects of human activity.
