The Thick Of It

[Anubis]

I've done a search but can't find any thread on it, so I'm starting one. Obv.

 

I typed "The Liverpool Way The Thick Of It" into Google and this came up as the first result. What do they teach you kids in school these days? You should particularly check out post #10......

Really enjoyed the first two seasons, which I've gone through recently. I would say that it is more good than it is funny, though.

[Philbert]

"Within your 'purview'? Where do you think you are, some fucking regency costume drama? This is a government department, not some fucking Jane fucking Austen novel! Allow me to pop a jaunty little bonnet on your purview and ram it up your shitter with a lubricated horse cock!"

 

Genius!

[Kevin D]

"I feel like I'm in a therapy group being run by my own rapist"

"I wouldn't piss on him if he was allergic to fucking piss"

[Kevin D]

"Tom's as angry as a dickless dog"

 

If it isn't the Robin Hood of politics.

Robin Hood was a hero.

No, he wasn't. He was a terrorist.

 

"She's an idiot. Yes, I know she's in the cabinet; but thats like a disabled person at a football game, sure she's close to the action, but she's not likely to score a goal is she? How is that offensive?"

[Jairzinho]

"Which one were you? Were you the forced abortion or the love child? Or the one who asphyxiated himself with a kiwi?"

 

"You take the piss out of Jolson again, and I will remove your iPod from its tiny nano sheath and push it up your cock! And then I'll plug some speakers up your arse and put it on shuffle with my fucking fist! And every time I hear something that I don't like, which will be every time that something comes on, I will skip to the next track by crushing YOUR balls!"

This was absolute fucking genius.

Finished it a few nights ago. Very good way to spend sometime. Will have to go and buy the specials before S4 starts.

[Jairzinho]

They're on Youtube, Kevin.

[Jairzinho]

Scrap that, they've been pulled. Cunts.

[A.V.B.]

Finished and may I say it was fucking brilliant from start to ... well it fell off a bit when they lost Hugh I thought but only character wise, the writing still amused no end.

 

A particular highlight for me was in the Conference in Season 3:

 

"I feel like I'm at a therapy group being run by my own rapist"

[Kevin D]

New season starts on Saturday night.

[AJBlaikie]

 

A clip from the new series.

[Jairzinho]

Was ok. Not quite at the level of the previous series. The opposition will be much funnier.

[Strontium]

I just ordered the first three series because somehow I've contrived to only ever see bits and pieces of this, even though the few times I've seen it I really liked it.

[brucespanner]

I thought it was absolutely fantastic, razor sharp as before, but with the added frisson of infighting.

 

Can't wait for Malcolm though, he's the true star of the show.

 

Get on it bitches!

Thought the new lad and the one that was previously a journo were pretty shit characters. I accept not every single one is going to be ace, but I just found them a bit dull.

 

Hope they find a role for Steve Fleming again. According to wikipedia they don't, which would be a shame.

is that 'Disney Prince' haircut?

 

'Its like asking a dog to understand the concept of Norway' What a fucking brilliant line!

It was the guy with the Disney Prince line. He was alright in the earlier stuff as editor of one of the papers, he'd try and put his foot down with Ollie. Then he'd get a visit from Malcolm.

 

You seen much of the previous stuff?

Yeah, watched over and over, I was half asleep this morning and wasn't really paying that much attention.

 

Mannion is going to be the standout character, such a dry distain for everything, well until Tucker comes back next week that is.

[Jairzinho]

Yeah, Mannion is class. The stuff between him and `Mr Political correctness gone boring` is excellent.

 

Going to have to get the lot on DVD, since they taken them off Youtube. Cunts.

[AJBlaikie]

Malcolm Tucker on Star Wars was fantastic.

[Ted]

What is this 'Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Cunt'!?

[Baldi]

She is officially a Cenotwat.....great line.

 

Can't wait for the return of Jamie, he's like Malcolm's mini me.

[robbiefowler9]

Just got into this recently. It's excellent. Malcolm Tucker is a fantastic character.
