Practical Joke award: I detest Todd but even I laughed at him sending Gary off to whisper at a client!
Thicky Bricky award: Gary has misgivings about the materials and lets Todd threaten his job. Todd's not the boss of him whatever Todd might think.
Sensitive Man award: Oh I LOVED it when Gail and Michael both were crying over a sad movie! Wonderful!
Rock Bottom award: Peter is really in the worst shape I've ever seen him.
Stress? What Stress? award: Leanne thinks Ken needs a break. 18 months in Canada wasn't enough (and not all of it was worry over Adam)? He's only been back a week.
Musical ambience: Bridge Over Troubled Waters when Michael came to see Gail the day after her accident.
Agony Aunt, you're not: David decided to have a chat with Nick. When has David been the go-to guy for advice? That's a switch innit?
Surprise fail award: First Ken brings back maple syrup (mind you, that's not so bad except it doesn't really cover 18 months' absence) and pencils from Canada then he surprises Deirdre with a camping trip. Hasn't quite got the hang of the meaning of surprise, has he?Fashion shout: I really liked Deirdre's dress.
Sinking to new depths award: Nick faking "episodes".
Lines of the week:
Tracy "Do we have to be miserable every moment of every day? Yep. I guess we do"
Jim "You want your wee Simon to grow up and think his daddy is a murderer, is that the crack?" (Ah yes, another Jim cliche!!)
Michelle to Rob "You look like I'd look if I was marrying Tracy"
Tony uttering the Phrase of Doom "How can we fail?"
Tracy "We are paying my ex-husband's girlfriend to plan our wedding?" (well, when you put it that way...)
Lloyd about Neil "You could threaten to kill him and all he'd do is offer you a disgestif"
Jim "Chateau de Big House. Quite a cheeky wee number if I do say so myself"
Eileen about Gail and Michael's aborted date "You could have just cancelled, you know, you didn't have to run her over"
Nick "How's your fabulous career?" Leanne "About the same as your fabulous love life but we can't have it all can we?" (Point, Leanne)
David to Gail "I know you're very good at overlooking your fellas' nuttier qualities but this one's already burgled your house and run you over in his ice cream van. Take a hint, eh?"
Deirdre "Her face just lit up when she talked about it (the Maldives). Of course that could've been the sunburn!"
Yasmeen "I don't apply pressure, I simply pose an argument" (and won't back down either)
Tracy "It'll be the shortest marriage in history" (No, you had that already with Steve!)
Tracy "I have the soul of a poet" (erm...)
