Someone quoted this from Dad's Army in a meeting I was in yesterday and although I'm sure I've heard it before, for some reason it had me chuckling for ages. Anyone got any other brilliant sitcom one-liners?

I thought he had a cunning plan or am I remembering it wrong.

You look as happy as a man who thought a cat had done its business on his pie but then it turned out to be a really big blackberry.
Another from Slackbladder (the Third this time) - there are just so many. I happened to use this one the other day, hence why it sprung to mind.

not the greatest line in british sit-com but the best example of timing:
Gareth Cheeseman (under-rated Steve Coogan character) is a BAD salesman who somehow manages to land a massive computer contract at a conference. As the MD walks off,camera focuses on GC who says "great......time for a w4nk".
Cut to a maid walking in on the Cheesemeister in his room, trousers down, caught in flagrante (no bicycle thankfully).
Utter class0 -
Talking of cheese...
Parody of a Python sketch from the Young Ones,
Alexis Sayle (as John Cleese doing a Silly Walk): 'Scuse me, is this a cheese shop?
Rik Mayall (as Michael Palin): No sir.
Sayle: (to camera) Well that's that sketch knackered then innit?!0 -

Captain Blackadder: Baldrick, what are you doing out there?
Private Baldrick: I'm carving something on a bullet, sir.
Captain Blackadder: What are you craving?
Private Baldrick: I'm carving "Baldrick", sir.
Captain Blackadder: Why?
Private Baldrick: It's part of a cunning plan, sir.
Captain Blackadder: Of course it is.
Private Baldrick: You know how they say that somewhere there's a bullet with your name on it?
Captain Blackadder: Yes?

top tip - print them all out, and use them to look as though you're studying an important report - great way to waste an afternoon at your desk just don't break out in fits of laughterwhile you're doing it0 -
