Twain had Phony Byproduct

Anagrams

This whole post is a test of your anagram skills. Put what you have learned into practice and see if you can decipher what is going on as we pay homage to a very British institution.
Twain Had Phony Byproduct

We've been celebrating a puzzle-related  national institution at work today and I felt I had to bring you into the fun; hence the title of this post.

30 Years ago a cheerful gentleman now sadly passed, welcomed a group of people to a puzzle contest - one that would be held every year thereafter - sometimes more often.

Champions came and champions went, and there were even champions of champions; they call came to the arena to try and win a teapot - I kid you not.

The contest, they say, where you either win a big dictionary or a small dictionary and give or take a few nicknacks - that's about it. Of course all anyone wanted was the teapot.

30 Years later and a new cheerful gentleman greets us warmly every weekday for another game, testing out linguistic and numerical skills, in an effort to find a new champion.

Arm Drool Cavern
Hill Rye Acre
Self Fling Jet
Suite Send
Sandy Elm
Orderly Sow Beehive
Red Cos Noon
Cheer Wink

and especially

White Red Charity

Thank you and congratulations - here's to another 30 Years of...
