BENIDORM - THE ORACLE T-SHIRT

A classic sitcom t-shirt available in black cotton.

Step into the sun-soaked, speedo-clad world of the self-proclaimed genius of the Solana, with this Benidorm – The Oracle T-Shirt. Inspired by the iconic Benidorm character Geoff Maltby, better known as The Oracle, this shirt is a celebration of pure, unfiltered delusional brilliance, delivered with awkward confidence and far too much chest hair.

Played to glorious perfection by Johnny Vegas, The Oracle burst onto the Benidorm scene as the ultimate pub quiz warrior, a man so convinced of his own intelligence that he nicknamed himself after a god-like font of knowledge. With a towel over his shoulder, his trusty clipboard in hand, and his mum lurking in the background, The Oracle brought cringe comedy to divine heights—and viewers absolutely loved him for it.

Forever as pale as a banana, forever socially out of his depth, The Oracle was more than just comic relief. He was a portrait of lovable delusion, a man convinced he was the star of the show even as life constantly reminded him otherwise. Whether he was sabotaging poolside quizzes, inventing fake business ventures, or trying to escape the clutches of his overbearing mum Noreen, Geoff "The Oracle" Maltby made Benidorm unforgettable.

 

“They call me The Oracle. Well, I call me The Oracle.” - The Oracle

 

He represented the eccentric holidaymaker we’ve all encountered—or maybe been—at a budget resort: overconfident, underdressed, and dangerously armed with trivia. His tragicomic adventures, awkward bravado, and hopeless holiday romances added layer after layer to one of Benidorm’s most uniquely loveable creations.

This Oracle T-Shirt is for fans of Benidorm, British sitcoms, and anyone who appreciates the fine line between genius and ridiculousness. Whether you're dominating a pub quiz or just strolling through the Costa del Chaos, this shirt says it all: You’re not just smart. You’re The Oracle.

Includes optional backprint.
