Quotes

add »
Ronnie C: Nobody writes to me. To me, a pools coupon is a fan letter. I get letters "To whom it may concern" from my mother. (edit)
Ronnie C: The next day Uncle Angus drowned in a vat of whiskey in a distillery. It was a very quick end. It would have been quicker if he hadn't got out twice to go to the loo. (edit)
Ronnie C: We'll be showing an excerpt from a new film which combines the colour of an exotic Asian setting, the excitement of championship ping-pong, plus music, sex and horror. And it's called I played ping-pong and had a sing-song and a ding-dong with King Kong in Hong Kong. (edit)
Ronnie B: Well, ladies and gentlemen, it's time once again to clean off the burnt cork and put away those plucking banjos, as we say farewell to The Short and Fat Minstrel Show.
Ronnie C: We'd like to thank Weight Watchers Anonymous and Tall Girls Limited for allowing us to use their rejects for the chorus line. (edit)

Trivia

Goof: In Hampton Wick Ronnie Corbett has to pop open a bottle of champagne. The sound comes in on time but the champagne refuses to appear on cue, which clearly makes Corbett laugh. (edit)
