Man is born free.  
Yes, because it’s the woman who pays.  
Fascist!  
Nincompoop!  
What’s a nincompoop?  
An idiot in drag.  
You made that up, didn’t you?  
Would I lie to you?

I just left my husband out here while I went in to do some shopping and I came back and he was gone. He was only forty-seven.

Well, here at Wimbledon, it’s been a most extraordinary week’s tennis. The blancmanges have swept the board, winning match after match. Here are just a few of the results: Billie-Jean King eaten in straight sets, Laver smothered whole after winning the first set, and Poncho Gonzales, serving as well as I’ve never seen him, with some superb volleys and decisive return volleys off the back hand, was sucked through the net at match point and swallowed whole in just under two minutes. And so, here on the final day, there seems to be no players left to challenge the blancmanges. And this could be their undoing, Dan: as the rules of Wimbledon state quite clearly that there must be at least one human being concerned in the final. _(we see a three-foot-high blancmange being shepherded onto a tennis court by a Scotsman)_ Well the blancmange is coming out onto the pitch now, and _(suddenly exalted)_ there is a human with it. It’s Angus Podgorny! The plucky little Scottish tailor … upon whom everything depends. And so it’s Podgorny versus blancmange in this first ever Intergalactic Wimbledon!

Well, it’s not a question of wanting to be a mouse… it just sort of happens to you. All of a sudden you realize… that’s what you want to be.

No, I’m only joking. I’m not really Brian. No, I’m not Brian. I was only…It was a joke. I’m only pulling your leg! It’s a joke! I’m not him! I’m just having you on! Put me back! Bloody Romans! Can’t take a joke!

Yes, we live up the road, number 49 - you can’t miss it. We’ve just had the outside painted with warm pus…It’s very nice actually. It goes nicely with the vomit and catarrh we’ve got smeared all over the front door
