The Thick Of It

Peter, Stewart and others in “Series 4, Episode 3”

(Meanwhile, at Thought Camp, Peter is playing a "mind game." He has a Post-It note stuck to his head with a political issue written on it, and he has to guess what it is. He needs Mary Drake's help.)

Would I be comfortable or uncomfortable...

Yes or no questions only, please, Peter.

Would I be uncomfortable talking to Andrew Marr about this concept on the television?

Yes.

Am I Diversity?

No.

You're out of questions, Peter.

(Peter finally takes the Post-It note off his head -- and then gets REALLY upset.)

Oh, for fuck's sake! Inclusivity's practically the same as Diversity!

(chuckles) No it's not.

No it isn't, Peter.

I could be at home watching the snooker with a bottle of unpronounceable scotch. Can I sit down now? (Peter sits down) I'm sitting down, I don't care.

Actually, we can all sit down now. Thanks, Peter. Um, so take a chair 'cause Emma's going to co-steer module four with me. We're gonna do a kind of Top Trumps stats check on the PM's future enemies, yeah? Strengths, weaknesses, blocking moves and take-downs. Em.

Great. Thank you, Stewart.

(to Emma) You've turned into the wrong Mitford sister.
