This is currently my favourite scene from Thick of It - it makes me laugh every time.

Nobody swears like a Glaswegian

In no way is this scene safe for work.

That is an excellent line.


I also love this scene. This is from the movie In the Loop - a satire on the lead up to the Iraq war - in this case an unnamed middle east country. It had a pretty reasonable US cinema release for an independent British film - so for a lot of the audience this was their first introduction to Malcolm Tucker - this is from the first scene in the film


*note - in the movie Chris Addison plays a different, but very similar, character to the one he plays in the series. This is also his first meeting with Tucker
