Re: The "bollocks" episode

I wouldn't necessarily say it's one of Nicholas' wittiest lines, to be witty you need to have a certain amount of wit. Peter Jones had that in spades. We all know that Nicholas himself is not a wit, he's not even a half-wit, he's more of a nitwit. Besides, what's so witty about Nicholas awarding a bonus point to Clement's bollocks? It was Clement that made the comment and got the laugh, Nicholas was merely doing what he's been doing all his professional life... ride someone else's comedic coattails.

Thank you! Enjoying it now. And what an excellent episode it was, with one of Nicholas' wittiest lines in the series.
