Quotes
Steve: “And did your Dad, like, while he was listening to you, did he like tap the nurse and go ‘can you get that twat off the air’?”
Karl: “It’s weird that they’ve only found ‘im, 'cause he’s the Tallest Man…”
Ricky: “…he’s written such brilliant classics with his lovely arse as – oh, why did I say that…”
Karl: “I woke up the other night, quite late, and I said to me girlfriend, I said, ‘How do you put a snake down?’”
Steve: “I wouldn’t expect ya to diss me. Or me black queen.”
FBI: Elvis, it’s a good idea. I’m just wondering if there’s maybe something a little bit more…glamorous…for your death. I mean, you could take a bullet for the president.
ELVIS: Huh. Wot? And shit all over him?
FBI: No no no. There’d be no crap at all. No, you just…you could just take a bullet and…
ELVIS: There has to be shit involved.
