"Pratt with it but passes instead to pratt, pratt again..." "Oh, and well intercepted by the swarthy little number nine concito maracon." "This 21-year-old halfback remarkably stocky for six foot, three inches square shouldered, balding giant, hair flowing in the wind bright-eyed, pert, young for his age but oh-so-old in so many ways." "For a 39-year-old you wouldn't expect such speed." "Normally considered slow... sweeping up and taking the defense to the cleaners." "Who would have thought, though many expected it this remarkable 45-year-old nine foot, four inches dwarf of a man who is still only 17 in some parts of the world would ever really be... oh, and there was a goal there apparently... and now it's pratt, back to pratt..." "Pratt again..." "a long ball out to pratt..." "I really like this ano-wheat." "It really unclogs me." "Oh, do be careful!" "Sorry, mum."

"If you lived in bleeding' rhodesia" "You'd be out at bleedin' fascist rallies every bleedin' day." "You're a bleedin' racist, you bleedin' are!" "Language!" "Well, he gets on my sodding wick." "That's better." "No, the stuff I liked was" "That stuff they gave you before the war" "What was it?" "" "Wilkinson's number eight laxative cereal." "Whew, that one went through you" "Like a bloody ferrari." "Now, who's that at this time of day?" "If it's the man to empty the eisan" "Tell him it's in the hall." "Right, dear." "And make sure that you hold it" "The right way up." "Dad?" "Yeah?" "No, no, my dad." "Oh." "Dad, why is rhodesia called rhodesia?" "Oh, sorry, dad." "No, no, thank you very much." "No, I'm sorry." "Thank you very much, indeed." "No, thank you for calling." "Not today, thank you." "Good morning." "Who was that?" "The liberal party candidate, darling." "What have you done now?" "Sorry, mum." "I was just washing up." "Go and sit down!" "Mum..." "Mum, do you know" "Why rhodesia's called rhodesia?" "Do you remember "go-eazi"?" "They were hopeless..." "Little black pellets" "Tasted foul" "And they stuck inside you" "Like flooring adhesive." "Well, I'm off!" "What time are you coming back tonight?" "3:00 a.m.!" "I think it's disgusting" "You a member of parliament." "Last night I heard you snogging away." "We was not snogging!" "Sure... sounded like snogging to me." "I could hear his great wet, slobbering lips going at you" "And his hand going..." "Dad!" "Yeah?" "No, not you." "Oh." "Just mind your language." "Oh, sorry, mum." "I've run out of beans!" "We was talking!" "We was not snogging!" "Talking about snogging, I'll bet." "If you must know" "We was talking about council re-housing!" "Would it mean going to live in hollywood?" "I've run out of beans!" "Where to re-house his right hand" "That's all he was interested in!" "And has faye dunaway definitely said yes?" "He is the chairman of the housing subcommittee." "Snogging subcommittee, more like." "Ralph, do answer that door, will you?" "Beans!" "Shut up!" "Yes, mum." "If it's the man from probbo-rib" "Tell him it's in the bed." "All right." "Sorry, mum." "Postmaaaan!" "Well, a very good try there by the garibaldi family" "Of droitwich in worcestershire." "Professor?" "Well, I can't make up my mind" "About this family." "I don't think there was" "The sustained awfulness that we really need." "I mean, the father was appalling..." "Appalling, yes." "He was dirty, smelly and distasteful" "And I liked him very much, but..." "Lady organs?" "Well, they were" "An unpleasant family, certainly" "But I don't think we had" "Any of the really gross awfulness" "We're looking for." "Well, harsh words there" "For the garibaldi family of droitwich in worcestershire" "At present holders of the east midlands most-awful-family award" "Lower middle-class section" "But unable today to score more than 15 on our disgustometer."

"But the winners, by a clear ten-point margin" "Once again, the awful jodrell family of durham." "Unfortunately, we're not allowed to show you" "Some of the performance that won them the award" "But I assure you it was of the very highest standard" "Was it not, lady organs?" "Oh, yes, superb." "I mean, mr. jodrell" "You know, the old grandfather who licks the..." "Yes, yes..." "He's superb." "His gobbing is consistent and accurate." "His son is a dirty, foul little creature" "And those frightful scabs which mrs. jodrell..." "Well, thank you very much, lady organs" "And from all of us, well done to the jodrells" "And to all of you, not forgetting those of you" "Who may be halfway in between" "Without whom, of course and not forgetting" "Who made it all possible when, and we'll be back" "Until then, and so it's good night from me" "And here's wishing you a safe journey home." "Thank you for watching this show." "Don't forget it was all great fun, I enjoyed it" "And I hope you watching at home" "Have enjoyed it too." "The jodrells win every bloody year." "Makes you vomit!" "Dad?" "Yes?" "Get your stinking feet off the bread." "I'm only wiping the cat's do's off!" "Mum?" "Shut your gob, douglas." "I want more corn plasters!" "Shut up and eat what you got!"

"The leg of the worker bee has..." "Well, mr. cotton, you have" "What we in the medical profession call" "A naughty complaint." "Now, my advice to you is" "To put this paper bag over your head" "It's got little holes there, you see" "Little holes for your eyes" "And to ring this bell and to take this card" "Along to your hospital, okay?"

"I've just been stabbed by your nurse!" "Oh, dear, yes, well..." "I'd probably better have a look at you then." "Could you fill in this form first?" "She just stabbed me." "Yes, she's an unpredictable sort." "Look, you seem to be bleeding rather badly." "I think you'd better hurry up and fill in that form." "Couldn't I fill it in later, doctor?" "No, no, you'll have bled to death by then." "Can you hold a pen?" "I'll try." "Yes, jolly good." "It's a hell of a nuisance" "All this damn paperwork." "Really, it is." "It's a real nightmare, this paperwork." "It really is a hell of a nuisance." "Something ought to be done about it." "Do I have to answer" "All the questions, doctor?" "No, no, no, just..." "Just fill in as many as you can." "No need to go into too much detail, you know." "I don't know why we bother with it all, really" "It's such a nuisance." "Well, let's see how you've done, then." "Oh, yes." "Oh, dear, oh, dear" "That's not very good, is it?" "Look, surely you knew number four!" "No..." "It's from the merchant of venice." "Even I knew that!" "It's going on the carpet, doctor."

"Oh, I'm sorry, doctor." "It was just on the spur of the moment." "Rather silly, really." "I'm sorry about the carpet, doctor." "Mr. williams, I'm afraid I can't give you any marks" "So I won't be able to recommend you for hospital." "I tell you what, I'll stop the bleeding" "But strictly speaking" "I shouldn't even do that" "On marks like these." "There are no more patients now, doctor." "Oh, well, let's go for lunch, then." "What about... er..." "Ah, yes, look, mr. williams" "We're just popping out for a bite of lunch" "While we've got a spare moment, you know." "Look, have another bash at the form" "And if at least you can answer" "The questions on history all right" "Then we may be able" "To give you some morphine" "Or something like that, okay?"
