2 I can hear polly saying how's the nail in the Germans 5
3 fallen on him must be the vase in the Germans 10
4 has to be the hotel inspectors 10
5 not sure I'm thinking the builders 5
6 hmm not sure I'm thinking Polly trying the dress in the wedding party 5
7 is definitely gourmet night 10
8 the Germans 10
9 is definitely kipper and the corpse 10
10 definitely touch of class 10
1, correct. 'He seemed more interested in my fiancee's legs' is the line I think. Looking for the rat under the table.
2, wrong. Basil the Rat. 'You want to know how's the cat?!'
3, correct.
4. correct.
5. wrong. The Wedding Party. Can't quite remember without checking but I think it's from when Basil is on the floor with the French woman and panicking.
6. wrong. The Psychiatrist. The 'fitting' refers to the light fitting which has broken, as Basil explains to Sybil how he ended up fondling the Aussie bird's nipple.
7. correct.
8. correct.
9. correct.
10. correct. And an impressive answer! '...Pulling some big job in town' is the line re Lord Melberry.

1. Identify the episode for each quote. An episode can appear more than once.
2. Pick how many points you want for each one, out of 10. If you are correct, you get the points. If you are wrong, you lose that number of points.


Image
May be out of my depth here so will just put 1 point for each.

1. Basil The Rat
2. The Builders
3. The Germans
4. A Touch of Class
5. Gourmet Night
6. The Anniversary
7. Gourmet Night
8. The Germans (only one I definitely know is right)
9. Communication Problems
10. The Wedding Party
1, 3, 7 and 8 are correct.

7 out of 10 correct is damn good though. What do you think than Randy? Thoughts, changes, is this a game?

Cool. YEah I like that strategy is involved. I'll keep a record of your game scores as we go along so you will be pursuing a high average as well as the perfect game of 100.

1 is the major talking to basil about the mooses head in the Germans 10
2 is possibly Walford salad 2
3 Is basil referring to the major, I think its in relation to the starling inspector in basil the rat 5
4 I believe is polly to the lady in bed in kipper and the corpse 10
5 is basil referring to the kipper as above 10
6 I think is polly in the wedding party 5
7 is definitely Mrs Richards in communication problems 10
8 is definitely the wedding party when pollys friend asks him if the room is airy 10
9 all I'm getting is cybil asking Mr Johnson about his charms in the psychiatrist 5
10 is definitely Lord Melbury in touch of class 10

Polly definitely said that line when they surprised the lady in bed with the dead body?
She threw the duvet over her

I think it’s when The German people are stood in the lobby after Basil has been knocked loopy by the fire extinguisher.

Might be wrong, I’d trust your judgement more. :D
