Which character are YOU?

Being honest... as much as I'd like to see myself as a competent, quick-witted Malcolm who doesn't give shit or a calm/collected professional like Dan Miller, I think I'm probably closest to Ben Swain. I'm fat, awkward in front of people and easily fall for people's tricks, I even have a slight nervous blink :(... Who do you think you are?

How "brainy" do you think he is? And what was his path to a big office at No. 10, with a bowl of satsumas and a fucking pantry with a door that doesn't open? A South London comprehensive? Poxbridge? A YOP scheme?

Underrated funny lines/bits in TTOI

Quotes/bits of dialogue you rarely see on here, but also interested in hearing your favourite physical comedy bits (including facial reactions).

I love this line — and I love this little chat, too. It's a relatively rare moment where you can see the affection between Glenn and Ollie. Even though Ollie's taking the piss — and the idea of Glenn being "big in Japan" is so funny.

Edit: I see this has been covered before (I Googled "he's brought his own olives") but, as my dear mother used to say, let's run a few ideas up the flagpole and see who gets wood. https://www.reddit.com/r/thethickofit/comments/1houvcm/what_is_a_slepton_line_that_doesnt_get_enough/
