BBC’s Top 25 TV Put-Downs

The BBC has compiled its list of the Top 25 TV Put-Downs, including classic insults by Lord Blackadder and Carla from Cheers. For example:

Edmund Blackadder – Blackadder II. To Lord Percy: "The eyes are open, the mouth moves, but Mr Brain has long since departed, hasn’t he, Percy?"

Carla – Cheers. Cliff: "I’m ashamed God made me a man." Carla: "I don’t think God’s doing a lot of bragging about it either."

Statler and Waldorf – The Muppet Show. Statler: "Wake up, you old fool, you slept through the show." Waldorf: "Who’s a fool? You watched it."

Arnold Rimmer – Red Dwarf. "Look, we all have something to bring to this discussion. But I think from now on the thing you should bring is silence."
