Great replies everyone!
Steve2 - that was a good one. I also like Brian's mother (played by Terry Jones) telling Brian "leave that Welsh tart alone!" That quote stayed with me for some reason. I think it was because a lady spoke with a Welsh accent in what was supposed to be 1st century Palestine.
Great quote, Tal.
Jhine - fork 'andles-four candles sketch was very good!
Here's another great piece of comedy dialog:
(Rimmer has found out that he beat his opponent and is now a captain aboard the Holoship, in series 5)
"I'm not good at making speeches and, given the choice, probably wouldn't have chosen you as friends. But I just want to say that over the years, I have come to regard you as ... people ... I met."
We *must* have some George Carlin, and what better than his thoughts on religion? : P
Religion has convinced people that there’s an invisible man…living in the sky, who watches everything you do every minute of every day. And the invisible man has a list of ten specific things he doesn’t want you to do. And if you do any of these things, he will send you to a special place, of burning and fire and smoke and torture and anguish for you to live forever, and suffer and burn and scream until the end of time. But he loves you. He loves you and he needs money.
Thanks Snugglebunny , and of course when they did this sketch we Brits didn't have all the 'elf and safety rules that the EU have kindly bestowed upon us .
Another classic sketch is the one where Eric Morecambe " plays " Grieg's piano concerto for Andrew Preview , that well known conductor . Unfortunately that seems to be blocked by the BBC .

Always plan for tomorrow. That way you don't have to do anything today.
Melchett: God, it's a barren, featureless desert out there, isn't it?
Darling: The other side, sir!
