Which scenes made you laugh the most?

I can think of two but i'm sure there were others:

1) When Ferdy punches Miles, shouts at him then walks out, in walks Egg from the other direction and asks Miles whats wrong, Miles says nose bleed so Egg just carries on chatting while Miles lays on the floor holding his bloodied nose, then Eggs leaves the room after telling Miles to hold his nose on the bridge (or words to that effect).

2) When Kira and Jo sleep together at Kiras house. Kira tells Jo to be silent, so us and Jo assume her parents are in, anyway after they've cosied up under the covers and had a little fun Kira says du know where my parents are? and Jo asks where and looks around the room looking startled with his big eyes bulging.

Hahahaha!! These two scenes had me laughing so hard!!

When Warren calls up Ferdy and tells him he had a great time 'last night' and that he'd not had sex like that since college (or words to that effect). Then Warren says "Oh sorry, is Ferdy there please?"

The next scene is of Miles, back at the house, laughing his head off calling Warren a genius.

oh yeah thats ones classic!!

But I also like the scene after the one where Anna gets flashed by that pervert, when she's sitting in the office with Miles and Jo and they're both laughing their heads off.

The look on her face just cracks me up each time!!!!!

I love all this scenes but my favourite is when a druken Egg and Miles are writing the advert to describe Miles for the lonely heart column. Its one of the funniest scenes.

When Egg gambles all the housekeeping money and tries to deny it. ...

Also, when Egg says "I could have been a solicitor" in parody of All Along the Waterfront when Brando says "I could have been a contender" As a trainee solicitor looking to change careers it really tickled me.

When Joe comes to Kira's office Kelly is at reception and sees him for the first time. She's eating (of course) and says to Joe "Excuse me, I was just nibbling on something". Then Joe waits and Kelly tries to flirt with him. She offers him some lunch. She holds up a chunk of turkey and offers "Turkey thigh?"

I p!ssed myself laughing for about 10mins!

Best scene and one of my favourites ever in a tv show is when Ferdie tries to tell warren that he is not gay. Can't remember the exact quote but it is something like - what happened to you last night then - were you taken over by aliens from planet poof? Classic. Still quote it when drunk.

Egg - angry after not being called back about the job delivering telephone directories:

'I don't think they're interested in geezers with prams!'

Also the scene where Egg and Miles are debating which one of them Ferdy is more likely to fancy.
