The Royle Family

I've always liked Jim's line about Chris Evans being 'like shit in a field' because he was everywhere on telly. I use that a lot and my missus is still mystified by it.
 
Ex Pat? nah, he's English. always was. ;)
ex-british army too, if I'm not mistaken.

was inspired to search youtube for the Royle Family last night. had a great laugh finding old episodes that I hadn't seen before.

"Christmas is not really for kids" - Denise :lol:
 
I never watched it properly but when I did there were always some great lines in it. The recent special where they were talking about Terry Waite:

Jim: "Who famously said 'I want to be alone'?"

Barbara: "...Is it Terry Waite?"

Jim: "Terry Waite was that poor sod held captive for five years tied to a radiator!"

Barbara: "Well at least he was warm."...

Dave: "You know Jim, at times like this I can't help thinking about Terry Waite chained to the radiator."
Jim: "Yeah Dave, farting away and no one there to smell it."
Dave: "Makes you realise how lucky we are."
