If ever a single throw away line deserved an award for comic genius...

So many great lines, and half of them you miss the first time anyway...

Malcolm trying to organise Hugh's team to cope with the leaking focus group story:

Malcolm: "Alright - Ollie, call Heaney. Terri, get on to her editor. Glenn, book a room. Bodie, Doyle, you go round the back."
[Everyone stares at him]
Malcolm: "At times of stress, I make jokes!"
- Has to be my absolute favourite line - it's the way everyone stares at the Bodie and Doyle joke, even though I'm in tears by that point anyway!

Hugh's 'office warming' pot plant present:
Malcolm: "Did I send that? Christ, she's a great PA isn't she, Sam? She always remembers the little people. Look at the size of that thing, you can ****ing crucify somebody on that!"

Olly at ITN trying to get Hugh's story bumped up:
Jamie: [calling Olly] "Have you sorted yet?"
Olly: "I'm in the middle of-"
Jamie: "Then get off the ****ing phone and ****ing sort it out! ****'s sake!"

Frankie: "Shagging your way to the top, then, is it?"
Olly: "Well, I'm not Scottish, so I got to get there somehow."


Were there monkeys? Some terrifying space monkeys maybe got loose? - Mal
