After much consideration, the one I quote the most is Sheldon from Big Bang Theory: "Saturday night is laundry night". It just so covers me when I'm introverting on the weekend.

I'm guessing "Pivot!" may be a popular choice!

Larry Grayson - can’t remember the program. Wasn’t Blankety Blank. It was the one he did with Isla St Clair - contestants had to remember prizes on a conveyor belt I think

The Generation Game.

Shut that door was Larry Grayson. Can’t remember the show.

Love "The Thick of It" So many absolutely golden one liners from Malcolm Tucker. My most oft repeated tend to be "Come the fuck in or fuck the fuck off" or "about as much use as a marzipan dildo".

The one we always use is: 'You look like Dot Cotton sucking piss off a nettle.'

DC are adults now, obv.

@devildeepbluesea I knew it was woman's name + woman's name, but all I could come up with was Kath + Kim!!

We love when it's time for 'pudding' as said by the David William's character in Spaced, god can't for the life of me remember his name, total brain fog! Cervix or something silly!

Spaced is endlessly quotable.

@CaveMum
We always us 'Nobody tells me nothing' at work when feeling we've been left out of information etc. Obviously said in a mock West Country accent.
And 'yarp' and 'narp' are used to signify yes and no by DP and I. Always.

“Oh, it’s a scythe!”

Blackadder trying to guess what instruments he’s going to be tortured with.

Laughing yesterday at the US Office, Jim prints off and passes a new, oversized security pass to Dwight.

Dwight 'This is humongous, I am not a security threat, and my middle name is Kurt, NOT Fart!' 😂

Whenever I'm no good at things taht are supposed to be fun, I quote Niles earnestly tellling Daphne as they ballroom dance: 'This is boring, yet difficult.'

Woman: Well I didn't vote for you! Well how'd you become king then?

Arthur: The Lady of the Lake-- her arm clad in the purest shimmering samite,
held aloft Excalibur from the bosom of the water, signifying by divine providence that I, Arthur, was to carry Excalibur.THAT is why I am your king!

Man:Listen: Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government! You can't expect to wield supreme executive power just 'cause some watery tart threw a sword at you!!

Arthur: Shut up, will you, SHUT UP!

Man:Now we see the violence inherent in the system! Come and see the violence inherent in the system! HELP, HELP, I'M BEING REPRESSED!

@icebearforpresident Bluey is THE BEST programme on the tv, I love it!!!! I was crying last night watching the ‘wise old wolfhound’ episode. It’s so good, I absolutely love the family.

anyway my favourite one liner is in that film with The Rock and Ryan Reynolds, called Red Notice. It’s not the best film ever but the woman that plays Wonderwoman comes into a party and looks absolutely incredible, and Ryan Reynolds says ‘you look awful’ to her. It’s priceless. You could never do that in real life, no woman would find it funny.

Loads from Gavin and Stacey.

”It’s the drama, Mick - I love it.”
”Obama…Osama…two very different men, with very different ideas.”
”I’m not drunk…I’ve just had some wines.”

YOU LEEK MUNCHING SHEEP SHAGGERS!
(Gavin And Stacey)

Sling your hook or I'll break your face! (Also Gavin & Stacey)

I'm gonna fuck your fucking fanny off, you twat! (Inbetweeners when Simon is trying to talk dirty to his girlfriend)

Bus wankers! (Inbetweeners)

Oh my God Karen, you can't just ask people why they're white. (Mean Girls and so many others from Mean Girls).

So many from Friends, too too many to list!

From Detectorists: ‘What’s that? a Porcupine?’ ‘Are you serious? It’s a
fucking hedgehog’. ‘I thought hedgehogs were flat’. ‘The squashed, dead ones are flat. The live ones are... spherical’. ‘Alright Richard Attenborough’. ‘It’s David’. ‘Oh, sorry, I’ve been calling you Andy’. Just glorious, funny writing.

National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation. The guy with the annoying guest : "Can I get you a drink.....Something to eat......(Under his breath) Drive ya to the middle of nowhere, leave ya for dead......"

“Difficult, difficult, lemon difficult” from The Thick of It.

”Stupid sexy Flanders” The Simpsons.

“Really? Where?” From the glorious SpongeBob.

Permission to speak sir

We're doomed , doomed I tell you

Put that light out

My sister Dorothy's upside down cake and she makes me cucumber sandwiches

There's a war on dad
I was wondering what that noise was

Mind you if I use your phone , if word gets out I'm missing, 500 girls will kill themselves

I've got a plan and it's as hot as my pant

I love Life of Brian.

Brian: "You're all individuals!"
Crowd: "YES! We're all individuals!"
Random bloke: "I'm not..."

Also so many Mrs Doyle moments - sometimes not even lines, just things that happen. When Ted gets her a teamaker and she makes a totally devastated face. Also when she's in the supermarket with the other women and they just glide about like they're on skateboards instead of walking. Just genius.

In friends when Phoebe says "Oh I'd love to! But... I don't want to."
