Default "straight from the fridge, daddy-o/daddio!"

Hello, all teachers!

Some time ago, I watched a British TV series in which I heard the above phrase (a methaphor) used in a humorous way - well, regarding something in nostalgia.

I believe it can be somewhat translated as: "cool, dude!" - equivalent to the current colloquialism, right? By the way, is this strictly a British usage or also known in North America and elsewhere?

I'd appreciate it if you could shed some light on this.
