Series 1, Big Brother Del: The French have a word for people like me. Rodney: Yeah, the English have got a couple of good 'uns 'an all! Series 2, The Long Legs of the Law Grandad: I mean smoking mari-jew-arna! You brought a slur upon the family name. Rodney: Oh leave off Grandad. I'd have to get done for chicken molesting to bring a slur on this family's name! Series 2, The Long Legs of the Law Del: I'll tell you what's the matter with him, shall I, Grandad. The other day I meet a couple of birds right - well, when I say a couple of birds, a mother and her daughter. Now I've known them for a long time, they're two very charming people. Anyway, I suggest we made up a foursome, right. So last night we went out for a drink. We took them out and gave them a nice drink. Had a lovely meal and then, him over there, he goes and gets the sulks don't he. Grandad: What's the matter with you, Rodney? It sounds like a nice evening. Rodney: Grandad - when he said we was going out with a mother and her daughter I assumed that I'd be with the daughter. Instead of that, he drags me round every pub in the Old Kent Road holding hands with some old sort with a cough! Series 2, No Greater Love Irene: Just one thing, you better tell me your name it's gonna get a bit embarrassing if I keep having to call you thingy all night. Rodney: Sorry, yeah Rodney. Irene: Irene.Rodney: No Rodney. Series 4, Sleeping Dogs Lie Rodney: That dog don't like me. Del: He's alright, he can smell fear. Rodney: I'm surprised he can smell anything at all with that gallon of Brut you're wearing. Series 4, Watching The Girls Go By Albert: It was 1946. We'd sailed into Hamburg to pick up some prisoners of war. Helga was working in a bar near the docks. She was the most beautiful woman I've ever seen - I fell in love with her the moment I saw her! The little finger on her right hand was missing. Del: Caught her hand in the till did she? Albert: No, she lost it when her home was bombed. Her entire family was wiped out! Del: Oh! Sorry Albert: I asked her to marry me. She said no! See I mistook her gestures of friendship as tokens of love! I suppose it was all for the best really. You see the authorities didn't like us fraternising with the Germans, and I was still married to yer Aunt Ada and she'd have kicked up a stink! It's funny you know, but even after all this time, if ever I'm watching a German war film and here the word 'nein' I always think of Helga! Rodney: What, 'cos that's how many fingers she had? Christmas 1988, Dates Trigger: I've got a date. Rodney: You wanna watch them stones, 'cos Del got one caught in his throat last Christmas.

Did you know that Taiwan is the only country in the world that don't have any rubbish dumps; they just send it all to him. Christmas 1989, The Jolly Boy's Outing Del: Yeah, well, you can't miss it can you? I mean, you know ... I mean when she walks in, she ... well she lights up a room. Rodney: Yeah. Most of your birds walk in and light up a fag. Series 7, Three Men, A Woman And A Baby Rodney: I'm depressed because of the state of my life at the moment. I've got this horrible feeling that if there is such a thing as reincarnation, knowing my luck I'll come back as me! |
