The Thick of it??

[Voley]

I believe this calls for me to say this again:

"If it isn't Numpty Dumpty, sitting on the wall like some clueless..egg…cunt."

 

[Maggot]

So when is it on?

I hear that there's a new minister played by Rebecca Front.

 

[Belushi]

Saturday 10pm

 

[Jeff Robinson]

Cant wait! My mrs doesnt get it describing it as 'just scottish people swearing'. Her loss

Sounds like a strong case for a divorce.

 

[Pie 1]

"You and me, Ollie, hey?
I just realised that we're on the same boat, yeah? I mean, obvioulsy, I'm up on the bridge with the big fucking binoculars and the Richard Gere gear on & you're down in the engine room trying not to get bum-raped by a bunch of big lads with shovels - but, essentially, it's the same boat"

Saturday 10pm

Saturday? The one night this week that I'm out!

 

[Balbi]

Cancel it you soft english shitebag before I grab your fucking testicles and use them as stress balls, AND I'M VERY FUCKING STRESSED IF YOU COULDN'T TELL.

 

[pennimania]

You've always got a pained expression.

do you take it up the chutney?




Did you all see the repeat of the special last night on BBC 4?

With special added opposition.....

 

[London_Calling]

I have to keep telling myself it can't be that good again.

 

[London_Calling]

Did you all see the repeat of the special last night on BBC 4?

Didn't know. On the iPlayer and . . . watching it . . . now!

 

[DeepStoat]

Is there anywhere I can stream the 1st series online?

 

[fen_boy]

Just watched 'In the loop', excellent stuff.

"Y'know, I've come across a lot of psychos, but none as fucking boring as you. You are a real boring fuck. Sorry, sorry, I know you disapprove of swearing so I'll sort that out. You are a boring F, star, star, CUNT!"

 

[Pie 1]

Btw, Why are BBC2 listing the new series as Series 3?

 

[sojourner]

I don't know how I managed to miss this in the past, but I watched a repeat of a special last night, and am a total convert. Funny as fuck - totally appeals to my natural bent towards swearing copiously

Cuntingly fucaklicious.

 

[Belushi]

Unfortuantely Children in Need havent responded to my suggestion for a charidee swear-off between Malcolm Tucker and Deadwood's Al Swearengen.

 

[sojourner]

Cuntingly fucaklicious.

Yeh, I'm hoping to get more creative with my swearing after watching it

I bet Paxman loves it 'He's lost his teeth these days'

 

[belboid]

Unfortuantely Children in Need havent responded to my suggestion for a charidee swear-off between Malcolm Tucker and Deadwood's Al Swearengen.

A close call, but I'd back Al. He'd show that cocksucker the proper way to motherfucking swear.

 

[nick h.]

I know we're not supposed to like Chris Langham anymore, but the first series did revolve around his character, and he was good in it, wasn't he?

True dat. I asked Ianucci at the Ritzy Q&A for the movie version whether he would have liked to cast Langham - he said yes, and he could foresee him returning to the TV series one day.

 

[stavros]

"You're so back-bench, you've actually fucking fallen off."

 

[London_Calling]

It wasn't just the line itself, which is genius: "All these hands all over the place! You were like a sweaty octopus trying to unhook a bra."

It was the pause, then: "John fucking Leslie".

Laugh out loud with an extra topping of loud.

Superb

Shame Langham's not in it. He was superb. He's just so hapless as Hugh.

 

[Spion]

It was all on youtube but seems to have disappeared lately

 

[London_Calling]

S3E1:

"Alright Hinge and Bracket, time to go and hang up your ladycocks"


"I’m gonna keep banging away at it; you know, like Charles Haughtry on a sleeping Guardsman"

 

[Gingerman]

"Two shakes of a crying baby","So dense light bends around him"

 

[Maggot]

When is it repeated?

 

[mauvais]

Which season? The new one is on iPlayer already.

 

[Spion]

I liked Olly's one about Glen being like skirting board. Something about always being there but not knowing what it's for.

But, I missed Hugh. It needed his bumbling and haplessness to leaven the bitchathon. Maybe Mannion will provide some of that in later episodes. They're both characters trapped in that world and provide a sympathetic character. Hope Julius is in it too for similar reasons

"The only other candidate was my left bollock with a smiley face drawn on it"
