Viv Stanshall? I didn't know that.

Sir Henry Rawlinson disguised as Hugh Bliette:

I studied the swell of her enormous breasts and I said: "Baby you're so far ahead it's beautiful"

I don't know what I want, but I want it NOW!

If you're going to say anything filthy, please speak clearly.

Like the shock of fondling a raw sausage, blindfold, at a gay party ...

Mercifully, Henry hit him with the soft end of the pistol.

And, looking very relaxed, Adolf Hitler on vibes. Nice!

earnestly humming on his way

Do have an unusual day, won't you?

Seems a novel enough way to commit suicide. Pass me m' pistol. See if I can't bring the blighter down in the lake.

Frankly, once I've eaten a thing, I don't expect to see it again.

It was a great party until someone found the hammer.
