Quotes6

  • Neil: I hope Mike hurries back with the cure!
  • Vyvyan: No Neil, Neil, it's Madness this week.
  • Neil: Vyvyan, will you shut up? You're giving me tunnel vision!
  • Rick: STOP SHOUTING, NEIL!
  • Neil: Stop shouting, yourself!
  • Rick: I AM NOT SHOUTING!
  • Neil: Yes you are!
  • Rick: I BLOODY WELL AM NOT! If you want to hear shouting, Matey, this is it.
  • [screams like a baby]
  • Vyvyan: [lighting a Molotov cocktail] It's funny, but being ill makes me lose my usual tolerant, and easy going approach to communal living.
  • [tosses the cocktail between Rick and Neil's rooms]
  • Vyvyan: OK Neil, you might feel a bit of a prick.
  • Neil: Ohhh. What else is new?
  • Neil: Do you think that you could get something while you're there to clean the toilet with?
  • Rick, Vyvyan: What?
  • Mike: I don't think I can, Neil.
  • Vyvyan: You can't clean the toilet, Neil. It'll lose all its character.
  • Rick: We NEVER clean the toilet, Neil. That's what being a student is all about. No way, Harpic. No way, Dot. All that Blue Loo scene is for squares. One thing's for sure, Neil. When Cliff Richard wrote "Wired for Sound", no way was he sitting on a clean lavatory. He was living on the limit, just like me. Where the only place to put bleach is in your hair.
  • Vyvyan: Living on Limits? What, are you on a diet?
  • Rick: No, I live on The Limit, Vyvyan. The Limit. Because I'm a Rider at the Gates of Dawn and I take no prisoners.
  • Rick: You're probably not even sick anyway, you're just trying to get attention.
  • Neil: Oh yeah? Then how come I'm all hot and sweaty then?
  • Rick: Well I think most of us would rather not know that!
  • Vyvyan: Will you two shut up? I'm trying to be ill!
  • Neil: [another Neil has appeared] Hello?
  • Neil 2: Hello?
  • Neil: Wow. Anybody watching must've thought this was a negative reality inversion.
  • Kissing Woman: [couple kissing in bushes nearby suddenly break off and look over] Cor, that looked just like a negative reality inversion, didn't it?
  • Kissing Man: Yes, it did a bit.
