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

What’re your favourite quotes?

The one I use the most is “I just really love my kids.” Sums it all up, the competition and sanctimony of it all.

GastonHaugh · 30/03/2023 19:49

And the awful kids entertainer who just had a box of cats

”he’s a bit racist yeah, but I wouldn’t have had any catering at my wedding if I hadn’t put up with a bit of casual racism.”

teezletangler · 30/03/2023 19:52

I've had such a laugh reliving all of these!

My favourite is definitely head of global product development at Glaxo Smith Kline Grin it lands so well as it's so late in the series

BaconAndAvocado · 30/03/2023 19:59

Omg what a show!
Sooooo many great quotes.
One of my favourites is when Julia is rushing about as she does in a huge quilted coats and Liz says, What’s wrong with you, you look like a mentalist.

Oh and another one is when they’re waiting for Kevin at the sports day and Julia announces over the tannoy, Has anyone seen Kevin, he looks like a vegetarian.

Borderline inappropriate but just hilarious.

I miss it.

I can’t remember what she says it in reply to, but Liz says “I’d rather have an episiotomy”.

As the recipient of one of those in the past, I can relate. 😂

Liz calling Ann 'an emotional storm drain'.

Every single time that Julia asks her mum to babysit or watch the kids and her mum says no and Julia always says "unbelievable" makes me chuckle every time

DoesItHaveKosovo · 30/03/2023 20:37

Oh, all these are superb. I only rewatched it all just after Xmas (after watching the special and being reminded how great it is) and I am howling. So many good lines.

Drunk Meg is my favourite, especially when they manage to get her off the bus and back to her house but she keeps escaping

I love when drunk Meg gets bundled into the back of the taxi and she promptly jumps across the seats and out the opposite door.

When she falls down the stairs on the bus because Liz has tequila.

When Kevin locks her in the tiny toilet and she asks him to open the door just a bit so she can have some air, he does it and she barges past him going “fuck youuuu!”.

Some Favourites:

Meg : mother's load mate
Julia: huh?
Meg: it's all the shit we have to put up with that no other twat does. It's full time and it's unquantifiable. You've got to dump your mother's load.
Julia: how do I do that?
Meg: well I flew my mother over from Guadeloupe so my mother's load is literally my mother's load ....

And:

Julia: oh you two go ahead, I'm burnt out by 8, don't even make it to Holby City, I don't do anything evening based.

Think these were particularly close to home at the time GrinGrinGrin

'Alexa, play some happy hardcore!'
'No Alexa, don't! The children are sleeping!'

I love Kevin Smile

nuttynet · 30/03/2023 21:59

Alexa! Who farted

RicchT · 30/03/2023 22:06

The one where Kevin leaves his jacket at Amanda’s when Johnny comes home unexpectedly and he escapes in the garden..

Amanda then tells him how Johnny found his jacket … followed by about a thousand “ shittttts” by Kevin.

” How does he know it’s mine?”

Amanda: “ Because it has your name in it Kevin”

😂😂

Liz to Kevin on the Lee Mead Halloween episode when he opens the door ( incidentally I love the doorbell that sounds so shit cos the battery needs changing ) and Liz enters telling Kevin he looks like “ an albino Ronald McDonald “

😂😂

RicchT · 30/03/2023 22:14

They are taking about cycling before Kevin takes on the cycling challenge.

Liz says how her labia are too thin and she can’t cycle …

Julia: “ I’ve got the opposite problem.. I’m one hell of a hoof in a leotard “…

😂😂😂😂

When useless Paul is in TK Max on Christmas Eve panic buying

" can you ask dad if mum needs a new epilady?"

"How about an Antony Wirral Thompson St pig signed by him?"

Sums up my OH's panic buying!

Or the very clever Covid parody episode " there is some indications that the nit curve is starting to plateau. Next slide please"

highintheskypurple · 30/03/2023 22:37

please don't git daddy in the face with a dolphin. -Kevin.
