Quotes
-
Glenn Cullen : [trying to come up with a policy idea] What we need is something that the public want, is incredibly popular and is free.
Olly Reeder : Return of capital punishment.
-
Angela Heaney : They gave me flip flops, y'know? Someone actually went out and bought flip flops to give me.
Olly Reeder : Yeah... You've gotta give them credit for that, that is quite funny.
Angela Heaney : And they pasted onto them a fucking porn picture of a girl sucking a big cock and they wrote "Angela Heaney swallows anything".
Olly Reeder : That is less funny.
-
Malcolm Tucker : [Ollie and Angela arguing. Tucker comes in] Hi, Angela! Oh, like the hair, nice little corkscrews. How's it going?
Olly Reeder : Fine. We were just talking about why Angela shouldn't do a big story on the big insidery piece, kinda day of spin, sort of spread in the paper...
Malcolm Tucker : Oh, I don't know. Maybe you should! Good idea!
[leaves. Then comes back]
Malcolm Tucker : Oh, wait a minute! I know why she shouldn't! Because , you know, if she did that, she'd be dead. To me, to this department, to the government. And she'll never get another story, or even fucking whiff of a story as long as she kept her sorry hack bitch face lingering around Westminster, because I would call every editor I know, which, obviously, that's all of them and I'd tell them to gauge her name out of their adress books so she'd never even get a job on a hospital radio where the sad sack belongs.
