Do you have a comedy line which makes you laugh every time you hear it...no matter how many times you've heard it before?

My personal favourite is "Infamy, imfamy...they've got it in for me" from Carry On Cleo, but I also have a soft spot for "The long winter evenings must just fly by" from Blackadder and from Airplane:

Rumack: You'd better tell the Captain we've got to land as soon as we can. This woman has to be gotten to a hospital.
Elaine Dickinson: A hospital? What is it?
Rumack: It's a big building with patients, but that's not important right now.

What are yours?

Wasn't it 'yoots'?

My favourite line from that film was where Marisa Tomei's character is talking about getting older and not having kids yet.

" Meanwhile, ten years later, my niece, the daughter of my sister is getting married. My biological clock is (stamps foot three times) ticking like this"

Gets me every time...dunno why...
From the best sitcom, EVER, Fawlty Towers;

"When i pay for a view i expect something more interesting than that."
"But that is Torquay, madam."
Well it's not good enough."
"Just what do you expect to see out of a Torquay hotel bedroom window? Sydney Opera House, perhaps? The Hanging Gardens of Babylon? Herds of wildebeasts sweeping majestically across......................"


And a very silly one from the Goons. Someone knocks on the door. "Who is it?" "I'ts me." "Well, come in, me." A conversation is continued when there is another knock on the door. "Who is it?" "I'ts me." "It can't be me, me's just come in."
He's not the Messiah. He's a very naughty boy! Now, pi*s off!

Life of Brian
indeed.
From Best Exotic Marigold Hotel: “In India, we have a saying: Everything will be all right in the end. So if it is not all right, it is not yet the end.”

You need to have visited India to appreciate it.

Mad Magazine in the 60's a Lone ranger sketch:

Lone Ranger: "Tonto, we're in real trouble this time. We're completely surrounded by Indian hostiles, we may not get out of this one."

Tonto: "What do you mean "we", paleface?"
Staying with Monty Python; MP and the Holy Grail. French soldier; "I don't want to talk to you anymore you empty headed animal food trough wiper. I fart in your general direction. Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries. Now go away or i will taunt you a second time."
And then sp when Vinnie responds, he too stamps his foot three times when giving his explanation !! I love this film.
Morecambe and wise for me too.

Also love every episode of 'Drop the dead donkey' especially the Sally Viking one!
Yes indeedy!!!!^^^
From Only Fools - Rodney you don't live here no more! When Rodney forgot he was married and came back to the flat after his first day back at work.
Lots by Tommy Cooper.

Peter Sellers in the Pink Panther: "I thought you said your dog does not bite??!!"

"That is not my dog, monsieur"
A Room With A View, Dame Judi Dench in conversation with Maggie Smith, Some people should have to take a test at Dover before they're allowed to leave the country. Probably a bit different but that's the gist, I love it because I so agree with it, for Dover insert any airport too.

Eddie Murphy, Trading Places, When I was a kid if we wanted bubbles we had to frat(sp) in the tub.
I watch the Life Of Brian just for this scene, cracks me up every time

Pontius Pilate: I will not have my fwiends widiculed by the common soldiewy. - - Anybody else feel like a little... giggle... when I mention my fwiend... Biggus...
[another guard chuckles]

Pontius Pilate: What about you? Do you find it... wisible... when I say the name... 'Biggus'...
[chuckle]
Pontius Pilate: ... Dickus?

Pontius Pilate: He has a wife, you know. You know what she's called? She's called... 'Incontinentia'... Incontinentia Buttocks

Another one from the Goon Show:
knock, knock
"Who is it?"
"We're from the phone company and have to disconnect you telephone"
"But I don't have a telephone to disconnect!"
"That's alright. mate, we've brought one with us."
Far too many to list, but this cracks me up every time I think of it - (Goons) -

SEAGOON:
Help! And I mean that sincerely.

BLUEBOTTLE:
Here, where are you? I say, where are you? Do not frighten me, I have got clean underwear on.

SEAGOON:
Help! I'm in a play under the floorboards.

BLUEBOTTLE:
Oh. You must have got a real bad agent.

SEAGOON:
Get me out!

BLUEBOTTLE:
Yes ...I can see your belly through the knothole. Oooh... poke, poke, pokey!

SEAGOON:
Stop that poking! I want those snaps back!

BLUEBOTTLE:
That was a different show, you twit. This show is number 164. This is where I say roll up, roll up! I say! Sixpence for a quick stick to poke Neddie Seagoon. Poke-poke-pokey!

SEAGOON:
