whapcapn Erix Griffon Ok, here we go... Red Dwarf Blackadder The Fast Show QI Fawlty Towers Monty Python The Brittas Empire Alan Partridge - Knowing Me, Knowing You Alan Partridge - I'm Alan Partridge Eddie Izzard Peter Kay Ross Noble Yes, Minister Yes, Prime Minister The Good Life Little Britain Have I Got News For You Just A Minute Who's Line Is It Anyway Mornington Crescent - I know, not a program on its own, but deserving a special mention for being sheer genius. Bremner, Bird, and Fortune Dead Ringers Alistair McGowan's Big Impression Vicar of Dibley The Two Ronnies Porridge Only Fools and Horses Are You Being Served? The Young Ones My Hero Dad's Army Spaced Bottom should be formally disowned by the entire country. And I have Yes Minister series 1-3 and Yes Prime Minister series one on DVD. They are absolutely superb. Some of my favourite programs of all time - the very definition of intelligent comedy. Sir Humphrey and Minster Hacker received Knighthoods, and the writers got OBEs... Yay! Someone else! I ******** love you. eek Did I just say that? o__O'
Big agree... I wondered where my DVD collection had gone.. great stuff smile |

Oh, it has some great moments. My favourite charachter would have to be Sir Humphrey. I love his long speeches. My favourite is probably when instead of saying "I", he says "He whom your present interlocuter is in the habit of defining with the perpendicular pronoun". Sheer genius. |

Erix Griffon Sir Humphrey: Minister I think there is something that perhaps you ought to know. Jim: Yes Humphrey. Sir Humphrey: The identity of the official whose alleged responsibility for this hypothetical oversight has been the subject of recent discussion, is, not shrouded in quite such impenetrable obscurity as certain previous disclosures may have led you to assume, but not to put too fine a point on it, the individual in question is, it may surprise you to learn, one who your present interlocutor, is in the habit of defining by means of the perpendicular pronoun. Jim: Beg your pardon. Sir Humphrey: It was I. Sheer genius.
Thank you. I also love:
Humphrey: You don't tell politicians official secrets, Bernard, for the same reason you don't tell them to secret agents. They could be captured and totured.
Bernard: By the Russians?
Humphrey: No, Bernard, by the BBC.
(Or something along those lines. I daresay you could correct me.) |

Sir Humphrey: Bernard, Ministers should never more than they need to know, then they can't tell anyone. Like secret agents, they could be captured and tortured.
Bernard: You mean by terrorists?
Sir Humphrey: By the BBC, Bernard.
Though it's worth pointing out my knowledge of the program isn't quite that encyclopaedic. (Not yet, anyway) I've been consulting an online quotes database biggrin |

Ah. I suspected as much.
Another gem:
Arnold: Permenance is power (not sure about that one, I coudl be wrong), impermenance is impotence, and rotation is castration.
You must give me the address of said quotes database. |
