Quotes:

Police Inspector: So your daddy dances in front of you, does he?::Nathan: Only when he's rehearsing.

Gaz: Told 'ya, robbing pipes, that's all.::Police officer: Gary, my friend, no bugger robs pipes in the buff.::Gaz: We do. Don't get your clothes dirty, do you?::Police officer: Oh well, don't fret, gents. There's a right good laundry in Wakefield Prison!

Dave: [discussing possible means of suicide] Drownin'. Now there's a way to go.::Lomper: I can't swim.::Gaz: Well you don't have to fucking swim, you divvy, that's the whole point. God, you're not very keen are you?::Lomper: Sorry...

Dave: Anti-wrinkle cream there may be, but anti-fat-bastard cream there is not.

Dave: Well, I just pray they're a bit more understanding about us, that's all.::Horse: You what?::Dave: Well, they're going to be looking at us like that, aren't they, Eh? I mean, what if next Friday 400 women turn 'round and say "He's too fat, he's too old and he's a pigeon-chested little tosser."? What happens then, eh?::Horse: They wouldn't say that, would they?::Dave: Why not? He's just said her tits are too big.::Lomper: That's different. We're... blokes.::Dave: Yeah, and?::Gerald: I think she's got nice tits, actually.::Lomper: I never said owt about her personality, like. I mean, she's probably quite nice if you get to know her.::Dave: No. And they won't say nowt about your personality neither. Which is good 'cause you're basically a bastard. Bollocks to your personality - this is what they're looking at, right? And I'll tell you summat, mate. Anti-wrinkle cream there may be, but anti-fat-bastard cream there is none.

Gerald: He's fat, you're thin, and you're both fucking ugly.

Horse: No-one said anything to me about the full monty!

Gary 'Gaz' Schofield: Folks don't laugh so loud when you've a grand in your back pocket.

Gaz: Y' know Dave, it's a thought...::Gerald: Ha! I could just see Little and Large prancing around Sheffield with their widges hanging out. Now that *would* be worth 10 quid...::Gaz: Don't be so bloody daft. We were just saying...::Gerald: Widges on parade! Bring your own microscope!

Dave: The less I eat, the fatter I get.::Lomper: So stuff yourself and get thin!
