Favourite Sketches/Lines


What's everyone's favourite then?

One of my fav's is the 'monkfish' series.
''John Actor is: MONKFISH! A tough, uncompromising, undercover cop.''

'Right, what have we got here?'
'Murder sarge', I've ascertained the time of death at 2:15.'
'What do you want? A biscuit? Now get upstairs and find me a murder weapon!'

Classic!

i loved the scene with dave angel:eco warrior when he's talking to the hippies in the woods and he's saying about people think of these people differently. then this hippie puts his arm round him and says you tell 'em like it i dave, and dave flinches saying 'take your hands off me you freak!' it doesn't seem that funny whe you read but if you've seen the sketch you'll know what i mean

That's the one! This is what I remember the most from that crazy show:

"Come on Mums: make it cheesier, make it peasier, make it SQUEEZIER! With new Squeezy Cheezy Peaz – Also available in extraordinary new Strawberry flavored Squeezy Cheezy Peaz"

I still laugh when I go round the supermarket and see a squeezy bottle and then some peas, or cheese...


Other favs:

The old 'very very drunk' person
EYES WITH PIES BLACK BLACK etc etc
Coughing man

I wonder what Chris Waddle thought of all of this? They kind of picked on him, don't you think?

Least fav was the 'brilliant' guy - although Whitehouse played a diverse range of character ages, this made me laugh the least. (note i didn't say it didn't make me laugh at all!)

"Hi, I'm Ed Winchester!"

i loved the 'Competetive Dad' sketches, particularly the one where the family are playing Monopoly and his young son can't pay the fine, so the dad rings his 'real life' solicitor to ask about the procedures for suing him!

Also loved all the 'Colin Hunt' sketches. Imagine having to share an office with that buffoon!

But probably my favourite was the 'Know all' guy in the pub, giving people advice on how to win on the fruit machine, quiz machine, what change they needed for the juke box etc, of course he got it wrong every time!!

Thinking about it, i probably loved about 99% of all the characters. Very funny show.

Top 5 vaguely in order of appreciation:

1. Chanel 9 ("Butros Butros Ghali") (It was funniest in the first season)
2. Colin Hunt ("I am the Antichrist. Heh, heh, heh")
3. Ted and Ralph ("Do you like French cinema, Ted?")
4. Psychotic painter (Black! Black! You lock me in the cellar and feed me pins!)
5. Suit you tailors ("Did she want it, Sir? Oh!")

I can't remember all of them as I'll have to watch repaeats to catch up, but here's a few of my faves:

Swiss Toni: "Playing golf...is like making love to a beautiful woman.."
Jazz Club: "Nice!"
Drunk QC: "...I was very, very drunk at the time"
Ted & Ralph: "Do you like French cinema, Ted?"
Chanel 9: "Scorchio!" and "Boutros, Boutros, Ghali"
Sleazy Duke: "What ?!! Me, the third duke of ***, here in a dormitory of nurses at night...with my reputation !!"
Ron Manager: "Saturday morning football, boys in the park, jumpers for goalposts...marvelous!"

I also enjoyed the sketches of Bob Fleming's "Country Matters", the Fat Sweaty Coppers, the Offroaders & many others. British comedy at its best!

Hethethethethethethe Pethethethethethe.

I always love Monkfish - An uncomprising Detective, Doctor, etc.

I also love all the 'Suits you' sketechs. My fav has to be one which went something like: "Did she make a noise like a frightened deer stranded in the forest sir like this sir (Makes weird deer/sex noise)" LMAO. Brilliant!

The skit where they imitate an old movie:
- Allison, I don't... believe it. You... and... Peter?
- But... I love him... Jonathan
- *gasps, with a priceless expression*
*door knocks*
- Get that, could you please, Lanchester?
- *exagerated speech* Ceeertaainlyy siiiir. :D

- Ah the wine, the red grape, dark and... black. BLACK! BLACK! We don't want to die! They wait for me in the forest. What's for breakfast, mother? Maggots on toast? AHHHH! A TREE! IT'S A TREE!!

- When you're selling a car it all comes down to who's got the biggest todger. You have to make him think that his is bigger, but in otder to sell it to him, you have to KNOW that yours is the biggest. You have to say to yourself, 'I've got the biggest todger in the world.'
- I've got the biggest todger in the world.
- It's not as big as mine, Paul. Not as big as mine.

- Oh, a suit, sir. Suit you, sir. Is that all you're after, sir?
- Yes. After all, I have enough socks. Ha ha ha.
- Ha ha ha. Have you ever thought of going at it, full-pelt, with a tranny, sir? Oh! A shemale! A man-woman-man! Oh!
- Why do you ask?
- Just a matter of interest, sir, I take an interest in that sorta thing.
- I see, and you?
- Sir?
- Have you yourself enjoyed the unique delights of a ladyman?
- I'm afraid that's none of your business, sir!
- You're quite right. Now, the suit!

- Goodness. You have got a large penis, don't you sir?

- Sorry, I've just come.

It was the 13th Duke of Wyndham, and given his reputation, it would be a much bigger shock to find out that he went to be at nine stone cold sober

reply

"You ain't seen me, roight?"
Classic stuff!

reply

Totally agree, especially when he goes into the police station and gets the officers attention, then does it right in his face. LMAO!

Buono estente

One of my favourite sketches is Channel 9 TV-soap sketch, where wife founded lipstick on his husbands collar and slapped him. Man then knocked her out and sits on chair to watch TV and wife brings him beer.

Other was Channel 9 TV-shop, where they sold Gizmos.
