Eh-loh, Eh-loh, Eh-loh.
"Hello, Hello, Hello."

A Form of British Slang that extends a greeting from one to another when entering into a situation uninvited or abruptly, more often than not, the sender is of higher authority than the receiver, for example, a teacher or a parent.

-A party rages on in a teenagers house in London, and the authorities are called-

Party Attendee: "Man, this is great, I sure hope no cops show up to bust us drinking underage"
Cop: *Walks in the front door with his baton resting on his shoulder, scanning the room for attendees that are drinking underage* "'Ello, 'Ello, 'Ello... now what 'ave we got 'ere, eh?"

Get the 'Ello, 'Ello, 'Ello... mug.

'Ello gov'na

A British greeting originated in the southernmost parts of the United Kingdom, most commonly associated with Cockney speakers. It may be interpreted as a lowbrow way of saying "Good day to you." or simply "Hello, sir/miss." and it is thus often used by non-British speakers of English to create a comical effect of sorts, or just to make fun of that specific dialect.

Hello there, Nigel! Smashing to see you, old boy!
'Ello gov'na!
