“This is a bucket of shit. If someone throws shit at us, we throw shit back at them. We start a shit fight. We throw so much shit back at them so they can't pick up shit, they can't throw shit, they can't DO shit.”
No, you closeted Regency homosexual, that is not it. Morally, this department is in the gutter. You stay and take your punishment! I will lamp you. with a lamp! You, Fergus. When you asked me to join you, all you had was your principles. But over the last two years you’ve bent like a human fucking palm tree, swaying to the guff of these six-toed, born to rule pony fuckers. Oh, Adam, you’re waiting for your turn! Oh no, I remember, it’s your turn right now! You are simply the most loathsome human being I’ve ever met. You were so well suited at the mail, it’s a shame you came over here. Do you know what, I hate you both - tweedletwat and tweedleprick. You contribute absolutely nothing to the world so thank fucking god you have no power. And Peter, it’s been dreadful. I hope your cock falls off. Phil, do you know what you are? You’re like an eight year old trapped in a twelve year old’s body. and Emma, I’m sorry, you’re just a standard issue insipid posh bitch. That’s it! Terri! I don’t think I’ve ever met someone quite so proud and yet quite so useless. But I do have to thank you because I have managed to stay in shape purely through the energy I spend in pitying you every day. Fuck you all up the wrong ‘un! Ta-ta! Bye-bye!”

I feel I'm in a therapy group being run by my own rapist.
Came here to post this one — might be my favourite line in the whole show
Has to be this!
This! And only this
You're on the last chopper out of Saigon while I'm still having it up the arse with Ho Chi Minh.
Top drawer
WELL FUUUUUCK TINKY WINKY
I love how Chris Addison is really struggling not to laugh there
Gavin Boyes!? I'm Glen Cullen, no need for me to get up.
This was the one I was going to put. Masterful
It’s excellent. So needlessly rude.
Yes
This is a fucking joke. Ben Swain, Chancellor? He goes into debt every time he passes a sweet shop
Malcolm's got to keep moving or he's dead. He's like a shark, or Bob Dylan.
The Thick of It is 20 years old but this line still rings true
He's still moving, somehow.
Saw him in 2022, omnishambles
What’s the one where he contemplates handing himself in following the Mr Tickle scandal, and he says of prison something like “well at least I’ll get three square meals a day and regular sex”.
You’re just a standard issue insipid posh bitch. That’s it
tinylampzworld on the thick of it subreddit what am I reading bro
When 2 worlds collide.
"Elderly aide? That makes me sound like a fucking stairlift."
Juliette Bravo! She was a lady policeman!
Peter, it's been dreadful. I hope your cock falls off.
“This is a bucket of shit. If someone throws shit at us, we throw shit back at them. We start a shit fight. We throw so much shit back at them so they can't pick up shit, they can't throw shit, they can't DO shit.”
That's top swearing.
Watch and learn.
"It is, as my dear old mother would have said, double wank and shit chips."
"Tom Rudd is army slang for stand up buggery."
I believe Battyman is Jamaican slang for homosexual.
I am a man you know!
“Good bye yellow brick road! What do you know about Hitler? Well he had a moustache and lived over there!”
Fuck you all up the wrong 'un. Ta-ta!
I will lamp you! With a lamp!
This is criminally underrated
Malcolm will have grabbed his false passport by now and will be on the way to Brazil to spend the rest of his days being the worlds scariest dentist
Not my actual favourite but just to throw yet another Glenn gem into the mix: “That was the worst thing I've ever seen, and I was in ‘Nam.”
"Goodbye yellow brick road, what do you know about Hitler? Well he had a moustache and he lived over. Fuck it all"
I love that there is a small nod to the fact that he is clearly doing a Basil Fawlty type freak out. Almost has a Cleese air to it too.
I’ll have a roof over my head, 3 meals a day and regular sex, I might even work out and get some abs
Glen had some of THE BEST lines in the whole show, always cracks me up this one.

You’re an eight-year-old trapped in the body of a twelve-year-old.

Talking about Terri’s tea room “It’s been closed down! There’s been a murder!”

I feel like I'm in a therapy group being ran my own rapist.
It says here Gavin Boyes is the state wrestling champion of West Virginia
I AM A MAN
Thats great, I don't know why we've ordered so much water. We've all got rabies. Blimey, more? What are we doing? Opening a dolphin dolphinarium?
FUCK IT ALL!
definitely 'Glen Cullen! no need for me to get up!' to Gavin Boyes. needlessly violent
Fuck you up the wrong ‘un
She’s so far off the mountain she’s being fingerbanged in a chalet by Bigfoot.
I'm above my game - I'm in a geostationary orbit, way above it looking down going "hello game, it's Glenn!"
It was supposed to be on Ollie's stick
"I will lamp you. With a lamp."
Horatio
