[imitation700mb]

Granville comes out of the shop with his shirt unbuttoned to the waist. "What have you got on , do your shirt up , you're too short to dress like that , people will mistake you for a very tall man with his flies undone."

 

[captain clutterbuck]

Arkwright: D'ya know what you need? A good walloping.
Nurse Gladys Emmanuel: Oh, yeah and who's gonna give it to me?
Arkwright: I? I? I am.
Nurse Gladys Emmanuel: Oh, three of you.

Arkwright was trying to say "BBC" but it was coming out BBBBBB B BBBBB BEEE B B BBBBBBBB and Granville says its no good, I don't read Morse Code!

Granville trying to get the fire lit
Granville: " You won'y let me buy firelighters , you say they are too expensive "
Arkwright " They are in this damn shop , get yourself around to the Coop and buy them there. "

 

[captain clutterbuck]

Granville : I have the blood of poets and lovers running through my veins
Arkwright: and quite a few electricians

Mrs Blewitt: Are you going to Parslow's funeral?
Arkwright : Yes even though he is unlikely to come to mine.

 

[captain clutterbuck]

Nurse Gladys: Oh that Mrs Blewitt, she has a face like a fit !
Arkwright: Yes but what would it fit, I'll never know. It's like her facial muscles don't know the meaning of the word "teamwork" .

I'm loving these quotes CC thanks for sharing them, I'm guessing you're a huge OAH fan and probably know most of the scripts verbatim!!!!

I am indeed Barry about the same level as you are with KUA but a long way to go to get to Roger's level on LOTSW.

Rogers knowledge of KUA & OAH is also probably on a par, looking at how quickly he can answer the questions there!!!

Granville: Look at the time! Quarter to nine and I’m held here in the clutches of my wicked Uncle.
Arkwright: Your Uncle is going to be wicked across the road, clutching something else entirely.

Arkwright: What can I do for you today Mrs Featherstone
Mrs Featherstone: Don't be so formal call me Delphine
Arkwright: Delphine, we got some tins of fruit by Delphine

Keep 'em coming CC, Roy Clarkes sharpest lines were definitely OAH!

As a matter of interest how often do watch the episodes?

 

[captain clutterbuck]

I have the DVD's but it becomes a battle as I have DVD's of all my favourite shows but if they are on I would watch them again and again its the same with some films the Blues Brothers which gets shown regularly and others like Young Frankenstein . I used to watch Blazing Saddles as well but for obvious reasons they no longer show it .

 

[captain clutterbuck]

Arkwright: Just put the sweets in your pocket Cyril
Cyril: I'm not having them role around my pocket
Arkwright: They're not explosives Cyril .

 

[captain clutterbuck]

Arkwright: They've started making P-P-P-Pep-Pepper-Peppermints with holes in
Granvile : Why?
Arkwright: So you can put your tongue in to g-g-get m-m-more fla-fla-flavour from it but ne-ne-ne-never mind putting you tongue in it I ca-ca-ca-can't even get it a-a-a-around the n-n-n-name .

Well, here across the Pond on the old Carol Burnett Show, they do a skit with Tim Conway as Mr. Tudball (the boss) and Carol Burnett as his truly hapless secretary. And whether or not they based Mr. Tudball on Arkwright, he's comes pretty close! Time Conway does the stammer, penny pinching, and everything!

 

[captain clutterbuck]

Granville: When am I going to burn the candle at both ends
Arkwright: Don't get ideas of doing that there are some ends where you don't want a blister.

 

[captain clutterbuck]

Nurse:- Don't Bother me now Arkwright I feeding my mother.
Arkwright: Hopefully to something big and hungry.
