good show
British congratulatory phrase
Good show is a British exclamation of approval or congratulation, roughly equivalent to "well done" or "bravo": Good show, old chap!
The phrase sounds dated and upper-class, now often used ironically or in affectionate parody of British mannerisms.
It praises a performance, achievement, or display of spirit.
