1.) A simple word to describe the immense attractiveness of a member of the opposite sex.

2.) A continuation from the above definition, used to describe the immense attractiveness of a situation/event.

It is derived from the popular game show hosted by Paddy McGuiness, Take Me Out, in which Paddy had the catchphrase of "no likey, no lightey!"

"No lightey" can also be used to describe the opposite of the above definitions.

All variations must be said in a Lancashire accent, optimally a Bolton accent, as in the style of Paddy himself.
Whilst at the beach as a hot girl walks past, just turn to your friend and subtley (or not so subtley, depending on your style), whisper "lightey", while nodding in her direction.

After getting a slap from a girl on the beach for being a perve, just turn to your friend and exclaim "no lightey!"

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.
Some grebo passed with Sabbath playing on his stereo.
The Poppies are at no. 17? God, a grebo band in the charts!
They're playing nu-metal now, bloody grebos!
