A lot of scenes and lines but for me the one that stands out is when Del's cooking for the in-laws and Albert puts coffee in the gravy boat and Del says (along the lines of) "Not only have you sunk every vessel you've been on now you've knackered a gravy boat!"

Same episode/scene:

Raquel's dad: "Are you a naval man as well, Derek?"

Del: "No, I'm a leg man"

"I'm not leaving our birth-right down there in Davey Smiths locker"

"A rhinoceros has escaped from a zoo! There's 300 dead bodies covered in rhinoceros footprints! There's a lock up garage 2 and half foot deep in rhinoceros crap and Charlton Heston suspects the butler!"

You Fought In The War

I Don't Know I Haven't Tried Astroturf

Uncle Albert's story about coming across a lion in the jungle.

Here some more of my favourites quotes.
From Sleeping Dogs Lie.

Marlene: Did you have a nice Christmas?
Del: Oh, terrific, yeah.
Marlene: I had a dog.
Rodney: Yeah? We had a turkey, same as every other year.

From Sickness and Wealth

Del: You know who that is don't ya?
Trigger: Sounds like Jimmy Saville
[Rodney glares at Trigger]

Del: Jimmy Saville? That is our mother
Trigger: Sorry Del Boy. Dave.
Rodney: [scornfully] Jimmy Saville.
Del: That's right bruv. Cheek.

From Modern Men.

Del: Well, I tell you what, Raquel. If she can be in a James Bond film, so could you.
Raquel: Oh shut up.
Del: No, you could.
Raquel: Don't be silly.
Del: I'm serious. I mean, look at her, she's a dog.

From A Royal Flush

Rodney: Oi! Where'd you get that gun?
Del: Iggy Higgins.
Rodney: Iggy Higgins robs banks.
Del: Yeah I know but it's Saturday, innit.

From Stage Fright

Raquel: Oh yes, Derek. We saw it through to the death. "Please Welease Me", "Congwatulations" and "And the Gween Gween Gwass of Home!"

Rodney: And that was followed by a medley of wock and woll!

I watched From Prussia With Love the other day, and I love Uncle Albert's "Vot is your name?".

Vot is your name? Uncle Albert

Just Trigger calling Rodney Dave - I like the one mentioned above about the baby but my favourite is when everyone in the pub toasts Rodney (I think it's when he's engaged) and everyone says to Rodney and Cassandra and then we just hear Trigger toasting Dave

After Del tells Rodney that he thinks Rodney's girlfriend is his daughter
Rodney: I'm going to bed. I bet I have a nightmare where my wife keeps calling me Uncle Rodney.

The Jolly Boys outing when rodney and Albert have to share a bed and are fighting over the sheets
Del: Blimey. It's like spending a long weekend with Zippy and Bungle.
Albert: do you act like this when you're in bed with Cassandra?
Rodney: No.
Albert: Then why are like this with me?
Rodney: There is a world of difference between sleeping with Cassandra and kipping with you.
Albert: Yeah? Like what?
Rodney: Like, she smells nice, like, she wears...things
Del: Oi oi, woah back woah back
Rodney: And like, she doesn't have a dopey white beard that keeps tickling me.

In the same scene after Del and Rodney complain about the cold
Albert: Cold? You kids don't know the meaning of the word. When I was on the russian convoys it was so cold one night the flame on my lighter froze.

My favourite scene is in Dates when Rodney is trying to look hard and cool to impress Nervous Nerys and tries to throw his cigerette out the car window, but it's closed!

From The Long Legs of the Law Grandad: (to Sandra) Rodney's got a police record!
Del: That's right, it's Walking on the Moon.

Rodney Meets Cassandra
