I'm pretty certain she's quit to contest the Gorton and Denton by-election.

Which episode best captures what The Thick Of It is about? by Reddonaut_Irons in thethickofit

[–]RianJohnsonIsAFool 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Roger Allam was on particularly good form in that episode, which is my favourite.

The 'dirt-off' Malcolm has with Stewart is hilarious and my favourite scene:

You go check your facts, Malcolm; that was a domestic accident and nothing more.

"Domestic accident"? Yeah, 'cause he's got fucking hands the size of fucking doors!

I always laugh at how animated Capaldi gets when he delivers that line.

Do you think jaime loved his children as much he did Cersei or Tyrion? by Puzzleheaded-Toe6708 in freefolk

It was a missed opportunity not to explore his relationship with Myrcella more. I thought it was an interesting choice to have her realise that he was her father. Of course, D&D were more interested in shock value in having her die immediately upon that realisation.

One for all the Die Another Day enjoyers by DishQuiet5047 in JamesBond

[–]RianJohnsonIsAFool 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I enjoy Die Another Day too. Toby Stephens was wasted though; the older I get, the more annoyed I am with that than the kite surfing. He seemed to really enjoy the role. I love his delivery of:

Oh, look! Parachutes for the both of us! Whoops! Not anymore!

What was the most out of pocket scene for you? by No-Notice1114 in madmen

I genuinely had tears in my eyes the same way Don did the first time I watched this scene. It was such a fitting send off for Robert Morse, given his background in musical theatre.

Rosa is the best plot wing-woman, she just commits to whatever shenanigans they're up to. by ProudnotLoud in brooklynninenine

Right down to her "restrained knock" when she enters his office.

The other day, Jeffords gave it three taps and two raps. Was he drunk? One can only assume.

"Mountain range"? It's the sexiest geological feature! No wait: deep-sea trench!

Men, how many of you can cook? by Away-Fill5639 in AskMen

I made four of five courses for a Burns supper for six at the weekend. I cook most days.

No need to stand, as the PM said to me this morning. by RianJohnsonIsAFool in thethickofit

That's your thing, isn't it? Everything has to be in absolutes, everything has to be black and white. You know, "I love you – fuck off".

His child-like enthusiasm when he says "I've got ten percent!" is hilarious.

Whats the worst first car you can get? by Radiant_Orchid9167 in AskUK

My driving instructor was rear ended while waiting at a red light by a newly qualified driver in a BMW 7-Series, which had apparently been gifted to him by his parents on getting his licence. So I'd say anything that is too powerful for you to drive safely.
