Sweeney Todd 

Sweeney Todd is a musical about The Demon Barber of Fleet Street.

He is a barber who, in vengence over his supposedly dead wive, co-opens a business partnership with his friend where he kills his customers and she pops them into pies.
Attend the tale of Sweeney Todd.
His skin was pale and his eye was odd.
He shaved the faces of gentlemen
Who never thereafter were heard of again.
He trod a path that few have trod,
Did Sweeney Todd, The Demon Barber of Fleet Street

Sweeney Todd 

A murderous barber sent away to Australia for 15 years by a corrupt judge, Judge Turpin. He was formerly known as Benjamin Barker, but when he returned to London he changed his name so he would be unrecognizeable. He arrives back in London off of the Bountiful out of Plymouth with a young sailor named Anthony, after leaving the ship port he returns to his barber shop on Fleet Street. His barber shop is even given an address, 186 Fleet Street. When he gets there he sees a woman making a meat pie, that is Mrs Lovett. Together they take revenge on Londoners until Sweeney is able to exact revenge on the Judge himself. Sweeney slits his customer's throats and Mrs Lovett chops the meat up and turns the people into meat pies, making for a very profitable business. Mrs Lovett is madly in love with Sweeney and plans to become his wife. She hopes the pie business with him will allow them to escape and live "By the Sea"
The story carries themes of love, obsession, and revenge (big main theme)
It was a written play, and then created into a musical by Stephen Sondheim and more recently re created as a movie directed by Tim Burton and starring Johnny Depp as title role and Helena Bonham Carter as Mrs Lovett
Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street is very well known in both the US and UK and Sweeney is more recently recognizeable as Johnny Depp's version as well as the way George Hearn portrayed Sweeney in the original broadway musical cast.
Sweeney Todd lived on 186 Fleet Street

More from Urban Dictionary
West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.

The Poppies are at no. 17? God, a grebo band in the charts!
They're playing nu-metal now, bloody grebos!
