"That was the bad thing!" (S01E04)

Jez and Hans wake up with no memory of what went on during a heavy drug binge. But what was the bad thing? Attacking each other with dental floss? Using Mark's laptop in the bath? Smoking joints through a baguette? No. It was something wronger.

Heat on DVD (S05E01)

Jez and Mark realise the theatre is boring. Mark: "If this was television, nobody would be watching." Jez: "Oh God. Why aren't we watching television? I've got Heat on DVD at home. We're watching this when, for less money, we could be watching Robert De Niro /and/ Al Pacino." Mark: "I'm going to pretend I /am/ watching Heat."

Taking a "w*nk bullet" (S06E03)

Determined that for once he's not going to let his best friend down, Jez decides to take a "w*nk bullet" for Mark. "I done the downloading," he says, earnestly. "And then I done a w*nk". Victorious, he duly delivers the w*nk-bullet salute. Classic.
