I was watching this old World War Two training film “how to behave in Britain”

hosted by Burgess Meredith for American soldiers going to England for world war 2, it covers a variety of different topics. One of them is how to act in a British pub. In one part you say a father and son playing some kind of board game and Meredith says what it’s called but I can’t hear it well enough to try to spell it.

here’s the video,


1:21 to 1:40

does anyone know what this is?
Thanks

Shove Ha'penny.
It's sort of a small scale shuffle board played with pennies.
