Quotes9

  • Gloria: Do you want to come up for a coffee?
  • Andy: I don't drink coffee.
  • Gloria: I haven't got any.
  • Andy: Sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll, hey ladies?
  • Vera: Aye, but we can do without the drugs and rock 'n' roll!
  • Andy: The only reason I get up in the morning is to see if my luck's changed. And it never bloody has.
  • Women on picket line: [chanting] The miners, united, will never be defeated.
  • Andy: Poor old biddies. Don't they know they're pissing in the wind, like the rest of us?
  • Ernie: Can they do that, women?
  • Andy: What?
  • Ernie: Piss in the wind.
  • Jim: No, Ernie. That's just the point.
  • Ernie: No, but on a nice day, you know, when there's no wind about. They can't - you know - get any direction on it.
  • Jim: All right, whatever it is that lasses do that's pointless.
  • Andy: Bloody hell. So much to choose from.
  • Phil: Fart in a force ten?
  • Jim: By god, Phil, you don't half know some funny women.
  • Harry: Steady lads. My missus does that.
  • All: [guffaw]
  • Harry: You daft bastards. Women Against Closure? That is when she's not farting in a force ten!
  • [Andy discovers that Gloria is from the corporate office]
  • Andy: Oy, you're fucking management!
  • Gloria: No, that's what you're doing.
  • Andy: I'm not a kid any more, Jim, right?
  • Jim: Oh, aye. Old enough to be a scab then?
  • Ernie: It's all right, Andy. He doesn't mean it.
  • Andy: You don't mess around with words like that.
  • Jim: Aye, I'm sorry, Andy. I take it back. You're just a stupid fucker.
  • Andy: That's more like it.
  • [talking about Gloria]
  • Simmo: You had her. Behind the bus station.
  • Andy: No, I didn't.
  • Simmo: You told us you did.
  • Andy: No, it were top half only.
  • Gloria: Moving words...
  • Andy: What?
  • Gloria: Back there - Danny.
  • Andy: Ah, aye, daft old codger. If it weren't for t'band ah reckon he'd pop his clogs. Listen, I wondered if you fancied some grub?
  • Gloria: Where?
  • Andy: I dunno - go posh if ya want...
  • Simmo: Andy, I don't want a falling out, mate. You're my main source of income.
  • Andy: Don't worry, Simmo. I've lost more this week than a bloody trumpet.
