WTF?! I had to replay the scene with subtitles to make sure she was saying what I thought I heard and yeah, she was. There couldn't really be such a pantyhose color called "N-----brown" right? And if there is no such color, was Phyl just making this up?
shareI heard 'knicker brown', which seemed like an odd colour but I thought that was the joke. I'll have to go back for another listen.
shareI put on the subtitles and she said Ni--er Brown.
shareYou're totally right, she does say it. Weird, I heard her say it the first time, but I didn't hear it.
shareI hated that scene. I wonder if Adlon or CK really know much about London or Harrods. Maybe a 100 years ago there'd have been a shade of tights (pantyhose are called tights by British people, another oversight) with that name but not in Phyl's lifetime. Or perhaps Phyl was just being a bit bonkers (or crazy as you American folks might say!!).
