Scenes with Harry 54
Well I think you did an amazing job. The proverbial needle in a hay stack.
Harry Proverbial bomb in a hay stack more like.
Better not say that too loudly. Bomb. I was told that if you said certain key words more than five times, MI5 would come down and swoop on you.
Harry What? You think we're being bugged do you?
Well how else did they know that I was taking my laptop home?
Harry Eh...bicycle, tricycle, icicle....bomb, bum, does my bomb look big in this?
Harry Walls have ears.
Have you started without me?
Oh...just what i need. A drink.
Harry Oh we're going for a drink now.
Leo said that he was gonna take us for a slap up meal.
Harry Oh good call Leo. eh...its now dinner.
I did not say that I would pay for it.
Harry Eh dinner somewhere very expensive. See you there.
Harry! There's more bacteria in a human bite than a human rectum.
Harry Oh really. Didn't have time to find out sadly
Harry Perhaps you'd prefer it if I retrained as a paramedic?
Perhaps you'd prefer it if I retrained as one of your adoring 25 year olds?
Harry It's a bit late for that isn't it?
Harry Fracture to the right cheek, fracture to the left cheek and fracture to the right temple. That would indicate something more like....crushing.
Excuse me. (trying to get past Harry)
Harry Oh I'm sorry. Just trying to make medical history. Didn't see you there.
Harry Any ideas what that is yet?
Well, from the lack of sweat I don't think he'd been wearing it long. But it is heavily damaged. I don't know. Could just be a piece of teenage paraphernalia. I used to wear this sort of thing all the time.
Harry You used to wear 25 bangles and rainbow legwarmers....shall we check him for those as well?
Harry (after Nikki turns up at his door) Didn't I order you for 12?
So, what have you been up to?
Harry Well, I've been offered a role as a special peace envoy, and I've also been told that I may be shot into deep space to continue with our research.
Harry Are you ok?
Why does everyone keep asking me that?
Harry I never usually ask you that and mean it. As embarrassing as it is, we are good friends aren't we? besides the jokes?
Harry Actually they're really rather brilliant jokes but you know, you can talk to me. I'm usually pretty good in a crisis aren't I?
Harry He shaves.
Harry It's not from his chin Nikki.
[Nikki looks shocked]
Harry Perhaps you should get out more?
Perhaps you should stay in more.
Harry [about Leo] He said he's never seen an elephant before.
[As Leo takes a photo of some zebras] Have you told him they're not elephants?
Harry Prudent.
Harry Yes, prudent.
[giggles ] I haven't heard that word in years.
Harry Does that tell us something about the word, or you?
Harry Hello hello.
Harry What do you mean 'don't get any ideas'? I'm just passing by.
I saw the way you looked at her.
Harry Well, just a little idea. The world would be a very dull place without little ideas. Can't help it. Involuntary response.
Harry Oh all right, all right, maybe there is a little tiny degree of volition... but there's a strong, uncontrollable 'thing' over there and if there wasn't there wouldn't be any... poetry.
Harry Yeah, love, poetry, art, bad song lyrics.
You walk by an open door, see a good looking girl, have a lascivious thought and somehow you've turned it into love, poetry and art.
Harry It's an extraordinary talent.
Is it a phase you're going through?
Harry No. Do remember Leo normally being so very interested in calcification? I don't think so. She is good looking hence her enthusiasm. Doesn't matter how old the dog is-
Harry He still wants his bone.
[Nikki giggles ]
C Charlie
Which one of you is the least knackered?
Harry Bollocks!
[Nikki giggles]
C Charlie
Don't worry. You don't have to go far. It's only on the other side of the Percival building.
[Nikki still giggles]
Harry I don't know what you're smiling about. I have had 7 cups of coffee so you are my designated thermometer.
Harry If you met your 19 year old self now, do you think they would shake you politely by the hand or punch you unexpectedly in the face?
In my case probably both.
Harry Found a photo the other day inside a book. People sitting on a beach, drinking, having fun. Took me a minute to realise one of them was me.
Harry Nothing!
[Nikki giggles]
You're not thinking of retiring?
No!...How old do you think I am?
