mr Alan Partridge 
Some of my favourite's fom sitcoms
Albert Steptoe - "So I get bunged in to an old people's home while you float around the world with five bits of crumpet"
Geoff Tipps - "My Mum got better, but yours died, I won that one, at least I won the Mums"
Officer Crabtree - "Good moaning, I pissed by the door, when I heard a shat"
Trigger - "It' Mozart's symphony number 38 in D major, It's a karaoke version"
Alan Partridge - "Single hand Sue tackling the buffet there, she's like a human JCB"
