One of my favourites:

"Nursie: If you weren't quite so big, it would be time for Mr and Mrs Spank
to pay a short sharp trip to Bottieland. "

"Brace yourselves ladies, I'm coming in dry"

 

And this is the UKRM anthem.

"I've no desire to hang around with a bunch of upper-class delinquents,
do twenty minutes' work and then spend the rest of the day loafing about
in Paris drinking gallons of champagne and having dozens of moist, pink,
highly experienced French peasant girls galloping up and down my - hang
on... "

 

"Blackadder: Morris dancing is the most fatuous, tenth-rate
entertainment ever devised by man. Forty effeminate blacksmiths waving
bits of cloth they've just wiped their noses on. How it's still going on
in this day and age I'll never know."

 

"Blackadder: Baldrick, believe me, eternity in the company of Beelzebub and
all his hellish instruments of death will be a picnic compared to five
minutes with me and this pencil if we can't replace this dictionary."

 

"Oh, I'm sorry, sir. I'm anus-peptic, phrasmotic, even compunctious to have
caused you such pericombobulation."

 

Dynamic fascinated us all by saying...

I'd take the eternity with Beelzebub myself ;-)

 

Ditto.

My Mrs pinched the West Wing from a mate (series 1) and we watched the
1st episode and I was hooked! Did a Marathon session in front of the
TV for 8 hours solid....got thru a shit load of pop corn. Now got
series 2 (see that twice) and have series 3 on the pooter

.....as for Blackadder, the 2nd, 3rd and 4th series are a work of
genius.

Still ain't sure about the 1st series....even after all *this* time.

.....and mine...

Blackadder - "...we're in the stickiest situation since Sticky the
stick insect got stuck on a sticky bun"

You do realise that you lot have used up Bear's entire supply of quips
from now until Christmas?

 

Not much left then.

 

That's a compliment, right?
