Quotes13

  • Liz: Shaun?
  • Shaun: Yeah?
  • Liz: You see what I'm saying?
  • Shaun: Yep, totally.
  • Liz: I know he's your best friend, but you do live with him.
  • Shaun: I know.
  • Liz: It's not that I don't like Ed.
  • [Liz looks over at Ed who is playing an arcade game]
  • Liz: Ed, it's not that I don't like you.
  • Ed: It's all right.
  • Liz: It would just be nice if we could...
  • Ed: [talking to the arcade machine] Fuck!
  • Liz: ...spend a bit more time together...
  • Ed: [talking to the arcade machine] Bollocks!
  • Liz: ...just the two of us.
  • Ed: [talking to the arcade machine] Cock it!
  • Liz: It's just with Ed here, it's no wonder I always bring my flat-mates out and then that only exacerbates things.
  • Shaun: What do you mean?
  • Liz: Well you guys hardly get on, do you?
  • Shaun: No, what does "exacerbate" mean?
  • Liz: It means um, to make things worse.
  • Shaun: Right. Well I mean, it's not that I don't like David and Di.
  • [Shaun looks over at David and Di at the table next to them]
  • Shaun: Guys, it's not that I don't like you.
  • David, Dianne: [together] It's all right.
  • Shaun: And it's not that I don't want to spend time with you cause I do. It's just... Ed doesn't have too many friends.
  • Ed: Can I get... any of you cunts... a drink?
  • [describing the zombies]
  • Dianne: Just look at the face: it's vacant, with a hint of sadness. Like a drunk who's lost a bet.
  • Ed: [Directing Shaun on where to shoot] There!
  • Shaun: Where?
  • Ed: Three o'clock!
  • Dianne: Oh! Over there again. Quarter to twelve.
  • Shaun: What?
  • David: Eleven forty-five!
  • Shaun: Keep it simple!
  • Ed: Top left!
  • David: You still haven't met his mum?
  • Shaun: Not yet!
  • Dianne: Don't you get on with your mum, Shaun?
  • Shaun: It's not that I don't get on with her...
  • David: Are you ashamed by your mum, Shaun?
  • Shaun: No! I love my mum!
  • Ed: I love his mum too.
  • Shaun: Ed!
  • Ed: [singing] She's like butter!
  • Shaun: Ed!
  • Dianne: I don't think he'd leave us, Davs.
  • David: Wouldn't he? Lizzy, how can you put your faith in a man you spectacularly binned for being unreliable? A man whose idea of a romantic nightspot and an impenetrable fortress are the same thing? It's... This is a pub! We are in a pub! What are we going to do now?
  • Ed: We could get a round in.
  • David: What are we going to eat?
  • Dianne: Toasties!
  • Ed: There's a Breville out back.
  • David: Great. Saved by nibbles.
  • Dianne: SHAUN!
  • [Dianne throws a dart and misses]
  • Shaun: NO!
  • [Dianne throws another dart and hits the zombie]
  • Shaun: YES, yes, in the head!
  • [Dianne throws a third dart and hits Shaun in the head on accident]
  • Shaun: AHHHHHHHHH!
  • Shaun: All right, I've got a car outside, but it's going to be a bit cramped, so has anyone got transport?
  • Dianne: Yes, yes!
  • Shaun: Great, where?
  • Dianne: Oh? No, well I passed my test.
  • Dianne: Daffs is always taking me to see these listed buildings, and I'm always dragging him to the theatre.
  • Shaun: Well, I mean, it's not that I don't like David and Di, you know.
  • [to David and Diane]
  • Shaun: Guys, it's not that I don't like you.
  • Dianne: [shrugs] It's all right.
  • Shaun: [turns to Liz] And I do want to spend time with you.
  • [pause]
  • Shaun: It's just Ed doesn't have too many friends...
  • Liz, Declan: [as each survivor passes by their parallel counterpart] Hi.
  • David, Mark: [formally] Hello.
  • Dianne, Maggie: [friendly] Hi!
  • Barbara, Yvonne's Mum: [politely] Hello.
  • Ed, Cousin Tom: [too involved with their cell phones, briefly glancing at each other, muttering] Hello.
  • [the gang are practicing pretending to be zombies; Barbara has a stoic, blank look on her face]
  • Dianne: OK. Barbara, that's excellent.
  • Barbara: [snaps out of it] Sorry, dear, I was miles away.
  • Liz: [during a standoff where David wants to shoot Shaun's Mum Barbara before she turns] Please, can we just stop and think about this?
  • Shaun: Tell him to put the gun down!
  • David: Look, Lizzie, she's gonna change. You know I'm right. And when she does, she'll come back, and she'll kill *all* of us. That's what your *ex* can't seem to realize.
  • Shaun: THAT'S what this is about, isn't it? It's just... it's just he doesn't like me! He's always hated me, and now he wants to shoot my mum!
  • David: She's not...!
  • Shaun: You never thought I deserved her, or that I was good enough!
  • David: What are you talking about?
  • Shaun: Oh, come on, we all know you're in love with Liz!
  • David: That is not true!
  • Shaun: Yes it is!
  • David: [refusing to make eye contact with Shaun] That is not true...
  • Dianne: Yes, it is...
  • David: What?
  • Dianne: I know you only hung out with me at college to get close to Liz, and when she knocked you back, I was there to pick up the pieces. I have come to terms with that, Daffs. Why can't you?
  • David: Lizzie. I want you to know that my feelings for you have always been essentially...
  • Liz: [flabbergasted] David, please! There are slightly more pressing matters at hand here!
