In last night's "Sex on Television" documentary, they used a clip from Porrige to show how the British public thought of "Pan's People", a semi-erotic dance group of the time...
Fletcher:
"... Pan's People. There's one special one. Beautiful Babs... I can't remember her name."

*giggles*.
There was always something about the way Ronnie Barker said those lines too, the expression made it funnier.
I liked the episode about the pinapple chunks.

Priceless.

Hey, how come we keep on bumping into each other? This is really bizarre.

This show was full to the brim of laugh out loud lines and interaction between the characters.
But I think the best line was the one that didnt make you laugh, but made you see a side to Fletch that you never really saw before.
I think it was the scene, possibly when Godber was chickening out of the boxing match, where Fletch gave a long speech about "making your own breaks coz you wont get many of them on the outside" It was a highly charged emotional scene which I think, finally reveals Fletch's fatherly side to Godber.
Key: Complain about this post
