Quotes 

• Mike : Don't want to go into your party?

  Tim : But they were playing 'The Time Warp', I hate 'The Time Warp'!

  Mike : Daisy likes it.

  Tim : So what? I hate it! It's boil-in-the-bag perversion for sexually repressed accountants and first-year drama students with too many posters of Betty Blue, The Blues Brothers, Big Blue and Blue Velvet on their blue bloody walls!

• Brian : [looking at Daisy's tin foil party decorations]  I see it as a tribute to Christo, the artist.

  Tim : I see it as a waste of Baco, the foil.

• Tim : Do you think we're getting old, Mike?

  Mike : Everyone gets old, Tim. Everyone except my cousin Adam.

  Tim : What's so special about your cousin Adam?

  Mike : He is getting younger.

  Tim : Bastard. What are we gonna do?

  Mike : There's nothing we can do, the government know, they keep it very hush-hush.

  Tim : I'm not talking about Adam! I'm talking about what we're gonna do now!

• Daisy : We need to get used to each other. We don't know each other that well, do we?

  [cutaway to Tim reading Daisy's diary] 

  Tim : [chuckling]  Thrush.

  [cut back to the original scene] 

  Tim : No.

• Tim : [they can hear the techno music from Amber's party above, so Daisy turns up the volume of their naff 80s pop music]  What is this? This is rubbish! We should be listening to firm young melodies, kicking tunes, thumping bass... God, I sound so stupid!

• Tim : What with the Skaterama at the East Finchley Uberbowl and the Tripods convention in Swindon, most of my friends are otherwise engaged.

• ['The Time Warp' from 'The Rocky Horror Show' has started playing] 

  Twist : [getting up to dance]  Ooh, Time Warp!

  Marsha : [squeaky voice, mimicking Twist]  Ooh, Time Warp!

  Tim : [disappointed]  Oh, Time Warp?

• [Tim answers the door. It's Mike, but also two teenage girls. Tim smiles at them] 

  Amber's Friend #2 : Oh, hi. We're looking for the party.

  Tim : Er, yeah, well, come on in.

  Amber's Friend : Are you Amber's dad?

  Tim : [laughs, then his smile fades]  It's upstairs.

  [as they go up the stairs] 

  Tim : I think you might have missed the puppet show, though!

  Amber's Friend , Amber's Friend #2 : Fuck off!

  Tim : [angrily]  What did you say?

  Mike : They said "fuck off".

  Tim : I know what they said, Mike! Little cow, standing there with her bloomin' purple hair and her alcopops, giving it all that...

• [Tim knocks on Brian's door] 

  Brian : [from inside]  Who is it?

  Tim : Father Christmas.

  [Brian rushes to the door looking all excited] 

  Brian : Oh, it's you.

  Tim : Who'd you think it was?

• Tim : [about the charade of them being a couple because the flat was advertised as being for couples only]  Do we still have to hold hands in the corridor?

  Daisy : Not if you don't want to.

  Tim : I didn't say that.

  Daisy : We could probably cut down on the fake sex noises.

  [cut away to Tim and Daisy making loud grunting and yelping noises, as he plays on his Playstation and she jumps up and down on the sofa] 

  Tim : Shame.
