The Thick Of It

Glenn, Nicola and others in “Series 3, Episode 6”

(Nicola's Fourth Sector Initiative launch speech has bombed...and that's not the only thing that's bombed)

Glenn

Uh, sorry I missed it. Did it go well?

Nicola

Nope.

Glenn

Well, uh, more good news. Um...I'm afraid my chances of becoming an MP have been torpedoed...by the U-boat that was you. The selection committee decided that my association with you was too divisive.

Ollie

The dream is over, eh?

Malcolm

I'm devastated. I had 500 quid on you being the new Foreign Secretary.

Ollie

Uh, it's a great loss to regional politics, for sure.

Glenn

(to Nicola) By flying so close to your bright Sun like Icarus, I have crashed to the Earth and died.
