Quote of the Day: The Vicar of Dibley
From "Merry Christmas", the 2004 Christmas special:
[Geraldine is giving her Christmas sermon while heavily drunk.]
Geraldine: On this day, many many years ago, a child was born. And his name was ummm... his name was... gosh, I know this... it's in that book. Ummm... [She looks at Alice for help.]
Alice: [Whispers, trying to hint the name] J.
Geraldine: Jeremy! No, that's not it.
Alice: [Whispers louder than before] J-esus.
Geraldine: Jesus -- no that's not right either. Doesn't matter, what's in a name? Important thing is... he was a very, very nice guy... apparently. [Laughs.] Two important things to remember about him. ONE, he loved all of us and he had a nice fluffy beard, and three, two, one - THUNDERBIRDS ARE GO!!!
[She collapses and falls off the pulpit. The congregation applauds.]
