"And so we say farewell to our friend Voltaire who died, as so many Frenchmen do, in a freak philosophy accident."

John Finnemore’s Souvenir Programme

People don't like things because they're nice. They like them because they're used to them. That's the whole principle behind Radio 4!

David Mitchell, The Unbelievable Truth, S07E05.

Pippa: Is it just me, or as we get closer to world domination do you become even more handsome?

Benevolent: Oh it's not just you, I'm actually starting to fancy myself.

#bleak expectations #Pippa Bin #gently benevolent

Benevolent: Soon you will die too - when my special evil plans bear fruit like a malevolent gooseberry bush.

Pip: What plans?

Benevolent: I'm not falling for that old you-ask-me, I-tell-you, you-foil-me trick again.

Pip: At least give me a clue?

Benevolent: Oh alright. "French and English articles confused with vile dry Edam, for a wicked force lacking true life." Four six four.

Pip: Cryptic crossword clue! You fiend! I can only do the easy ones!

#bleak expectations #pip bin #gently benevolent #S03E06 #lives lost ruined wrecked and redeemed #because OF COURSE Mr GB can create that clue off the top of his head

Lily: We have news to cheer you.

Sir Phillip: France has evaporated?

Harry: I have invented a new system of communication using budgies. They memorise short messages in morse code, fly to the recipient, and tweet them. Oh, here is one now!

[Fluttering. Bird chirps.]

Harry: "Saw a cat fall into a sink. GIAMW. CLAC."

Pip: G. I. A. M. W, and C. L. A. C?

Harry: Guffaw In A Manly Way; Chuckle Like A Chap. This will make me rich enough to fund my next idea, which I call FaceVolume!

My life has been an endless progression of trials, setbacks and conveniently-spaced cliffhanger endings.

Sir Phillip Bin, Bleak Expectations

#bleak expectations #pip bin #S02E01 #a happy life cruelly re-kippered

Servewell: Mr and Mrs Sourquill, sir.

Sir Phillip: You're later than a dead man on a delayed train.

Lily: Do not worry Papa, soon we shall never be late again.

Sir Phillip: Are you to stop visiting?

Pippa: You lied, Gently, you said there wasn't anyone else!

Gently Benevolent: Well I am evil. And she is dino-dynamite.

Juanita: I am a dino-phwoooar!

Pippa: Oh, shut it scaly! Have you put on weight?

Juanita: They're called curves. You bony English girls would not understand.

Pippa: Oh shove a chimichanga in it!

Juanita: Why don't you put a cream tea in it!

Pippa: Burritos to you!

Juanita: Roast beef and yorkshire pudding off!

Gently Benevolent: Enough national-foods-based insults!

Sir Phillip (narrating): We rode hard, stopping shortly after dawn for a strange, French breakfast.

Pip Bin: I dunk this 'croissant' into some 'hot chocolate' in a bowl?

Reverend Godly Fecund: Don't be frightened.

Pip Bin: If I said it was delicious, would that be treason to Britain?

Reverend Godly Fecund: Yes.

Pip Bin: Then it is horrible. Can I have some more please?

WHY DIDN’T TUMBLR TELL ME JOHN FINNEMORE WAS WORKING ON A NEW COMEDY SHOW?

I would’ve gotten around to watching this sooner if I’d known…

johnfinnemoressouvenirprogramme

nobody tells me anything….

seems Finnemore was a writer on this, and as usual, I can’t find much about it on google…

laimelde

I’ve just finished watching all 5 of the eps that have aired to date (they’re all on youtube) and he’s credited on every one, while some of the other names vary. So I guess he’s a permanent fixture on the writing team?

I, myself, wrote and starred in the show but naturally modesty forbids me from ever telling you my name, save from one cryptic clue hidden deep within the title.

Pip Bin: But... it could just be a coincidence.

Harry Biscuit: If it is, it's one so big, it's a Coinci-dorous Rex!

It’s impossible to read that without doing the intonation
