Favourite Motherland quotes?

[usernamechanged1]

I can’t believe people don’t watch this show. God bless you all, missing out on this!

What’re your favourite quotes?

😁😆

Oh my goodness. You have to watch it . I am
envious as I am re watching it. Again . For about the 4th time.
Fucking hilarious programme 😂

"Miehn craft" drawing as presented to me by my 5yo, had to share here, not enough people in RL would get why I found it quite so funny!!!

So funny @dinosaurghostcat !!

There's a soft play place I drive past quite often called 'Kidsaurus'& every time I see it makes me think of Liz asking Kevin if he works at 'Kidistan'

😂

The best ones have all been said but I liked the bit where Liz and Lee were talking about Henry 8th

Lee - did you know he had 8 wives?

Liz -no he didn't, he had 6

Lee - No he had 8, that's why he was called Henry the 8th. Did you know, one if them was a ghost!

Other good ones

Lee - I quite like having 2 wives

Liz - Well if you like having 2 balls, contact your solicitor!

In the shit shop episode

Kevin was freaking out

Julia - We didn't do it!

Liz - Or did we?!

Later in the episode,

Kevin (musing) - I don't think Jill would have the kids if I went to prison

The long locker as mentioned by a pp. Went swimming yesterday and there were a few posher looking long lockers away from the ordinary ones, with mini hangers in. Thought of Julia.

Always think of Julia when I see a long locked at my council pool

I've just watched the Mother's Day episode, Julia really makes me laugh in that one. 'Oh, stick it up your hole' also when Meg is upset that it could be her last Mother's Day, 'I must warn you I'm not very good with crying, or empathy'

I absolutely love that episode. The impulsive hug that Julia gives Meg after their heart to heart (she does do empathy....deep down!) and Meg's startled but delighted laugh - it's just lovely.

Also Kevin and Liz's trip to his mum's grave.

And the whole scene with Amanda and Joanna Lumley as her appalling mother, and when Anne and her mother come into the restaurant to see them, and it's just so poignant. Fine, fine acting and writing.

Really quite hard to write great comedy with moments of true pathos and tragedy.

A ridiculous single traffic light popped up overnight on the school run yesterday there for no apparent reason. I was so tempted just to go through, reminded me of Julia. 'Why are you here?' !

That’s such a great episode and amazing writing, you’re absolutely right.

Also just rewatched the Last Christmas episode. Oh my goodness. That's one to kick you in the heart.

Yes. My favourite episode for comedy and drama elements.

😂😂 I'd forgotten that one!

The Cavalry: Don't waste a real slice

Just rewatching the episode where Julia goes self employer and her phone rings. 'Oh maybe it's Unilever!' Looks at phone 'no, it's Paul' 😄

Anne: you're never more than a metre away from a pervert

‘Bubbles?’ ‘Sparkles?’ ‘Sparkly bubbles?’ ‘Bubbly sparkles?’

🤣

Has anyone mentioned Julia's labia? "Chubby and one hell of a hoof in a leotard".

Amanda's Evil Santa game.

Julia: 'Oh, a lemon squeezer' (disappointed)

Anne: but it's from LAKELAND.

"You ungrateful old cabbage"

We spend all December exclaiming 'its Christmas Eeeeeeeeeeve, Geoff!'
