Absolute Power (radio)/Quotes
From the television series:
Alan: I put it all down to drink, drugs and the stress of the job. |
Cat: He has charm. |
Charles(very cheerfully): I tell you what. Why don't you both fuck off? |
From the radio series:
("Prison Reform")
Charles: Let me say this as a man of unflinching, principled consistency: What's in it for me? |
Charles: Archie, if you're going to have principles in this life, it is essential that they have a certain infinite flexibility. |
Gayle: And not the tie with the bunny rabbits, even if his children did give it to him. You cannot order a riot squad to enter a prison wearing a tie with bunny rabbits. |
("Mayor of London")
Sandy: No, but at least you've learned something. |
("Radio 3")
Charles: Kcuf O, backwards! |
("Big Brother")
Charles: D'you know, I actually sat and watched a tape of Big... Thingy, an entire hour of it. It's like a publicity video for Madame Tussauds made by Andy Warhol. Nothing happens at all. Nothing! And yet every time that little excrescence steps outside the front door, she's besieged! 'Can I have your autograph?' 'Will you marry me?' 'Show us your bum!' Martin, I simply do not understand the country we live in. I'm a total stranger! |
("Healthy Eating")
Charles: You do love your little joke, don't you? Martin, you are brilliant, but fundamentally unsound. |
