I love the similarities Roy uses in his 3 classic shows. I find them really interesting also like Edie is the prototype for Hyacinth Bucket in a sort of way.

Definitely! I don't know whether you recall but there is an episode where Edie answers the phone and says 'The Pegden residence, the lady of the house speaking' !!!!

Good question, but sadly I cannot recall. It was one of her earlier episodes but I cannot remember which, hopefully another more enlightened member can help me out!???

Word spread about using Arnold , Graham Linehan and Arthur Matthews used it in a scene in Father Ted when Ted is trying to persuade Jack to give up alcohol for Lent [ sadly no GIFs of that bit but here are the lines]

Mrs Doyle: Who wants their afternoon drink?

Father Jack: Drink?! Oh yes!

Father Ted: No!

Father Jack: No?

Father Ted: No Father, it's Lent remember, you said you'd give it up for a couple of days.

Father Jack: What?

Father Ted: Do you not remember you said you'd offer it up for Our Lord?

Father Jack: (mishears "Our Lord") Arnold? Who's Arnold?

Father Ted: No, Our Lord. I suppose, I made your vow for you. But I know that deep down inside you'd like to make a little sacrifice.

Father Jack: Sacrifice? A$%e!
