“I’m sorry I’m not up-to-date on Muppets celebrity gossip.”

“Would you rather be a depressed human or a depressed fruit?”

“If I had to choose between a pint in Baghdad and a pint in Sherwood I’d genuinely have to think about it.”

“He reckons his name was Michael Owen but he was from the Philippines and just trying to impress me."

“That’s the thing with music, you need noise to make the music… unfortunately.”

Woman on the phone: “I bet I could make a Haggis.”

“I’ve not liked Jimmy Carr since he got his barnet messed up anyway.”

Mother, talking to her son: “Are you looking at that man’s ice cream? If you’re lucky he might tell you where he got it.”
Man: “No he won’t.”

“If someone paid me a fiver every time I took a dump I… would still be poor but I’d get to work from home.”
