The Thick Of It

Steve, Ollie and others in “Series 3, Episode 8”

So, everything: Good.

Yeah, you know, a bit of instability with Malcolm gone, a sort of sense of Post – you know, Psychotic Twats Disorder, but –

No no, listen, I understand, but you know, right now, you're all emerging from the cellar – pleased that the beatings have stopped - scared of what the future might hold, but long-term, I think we're all gonna be okay. Pep talk, over! Return to your desks, and prepare for government.

We're in government.

(smiling, but clearly annoyed) Well then, prepare to stay in government.

Oh right. How do we do that?

We pack an overnight bag.

(apoplectic) Will you PLEASE, FUCKING WELL – (Steve immediately composes himself, and lets out a forced laugh) I'm sorry, I've lost my temper! Where is it? Where is it? Oh, no, I've found it again. It's alright.

Always in the last place you look, eh?

(to Steve) So, can I...?

Yeah.

Great.

Uh, actually, can I have a word with you, Nicky, please?

Yeah. Nicola.
