I’ve watched this clip hundreds of time and I never noticed Malcolm telling her to move.

Praise from Malcolm Tucker: "You tried."

I'm amazed nobody's actually made a KZread video of Nicola Murray standing in front of the "I am bent" sign randomly intercut with bits from Family Guy...

“Malkie Malkie” gets me every time!

grahamlive he says “alkie” at 2:32 but at 2:36 Ollie says “Malkie Malkie” to warn them that Malcolm is on his way in, that’s the bit I was getting at!

The clearest sign it was Malcolm's plan: He didn't rant at Nicola. She raved and blasted at him for something that seemed too ludicrous an idea and he had no rant for her back. Just said "What?" told her he was her only option and left before he cracked a smile at his clever work.

The clearest sign is the part where he does it: the relatively understated "bit edgy". Not really that obscure to any observant viewer.

"Hey Yoko Ono and the two remaining Beatles, piss off!"

I love how utterly, utterly clueless and useless Terry is.

Considering that she'd been passively-aggressively sniping at Nicola after Nicola "slighted" her early in the episode, I think Terri knew full-well what it looked like as soon as it happened and was spitefully enjoying every second.

So many people forget what Machiavelli said right after that famous quote. I'll paraphrase it: "If you must be feared, you must also take care not to be HATED." Malcolm most certainly did not consider that second part, and it cost him EVERYTHING in the end.

You can see mock the week and have I got news for u making light of Nicola standing in front of the I am bent sign lol

Like so much else, the secret to this is that they play it absolutely seriously. The confrontation between Malcolm and Nicola is written and acted as if it were a drama in which he had backed her into nearly starting a war or something... yet it's all because he shifted the way she stood in front of a sign and affronted her dignity.

Peter Capaldi's incredible performance

I can never believe how good Peter Capaldi is in this show. I can never see Peter Capaldi, I can only see Malcom Tucker. It's crazy how he gave one of the best performances on TV and just dipped.

Lmao this actually happened with Matt Hancock.

@@johnhalsall1878How? It’s very clearly a reference to the old Israeli Iron War doctrine - Where when they’re struck by enemies, they strike back twice as hard to deter any further strikes. A doctrine that did end up working, given Israel got peace with Egypt after a war.

If they took the sticks out their rears, the solution would be simple: Go along with the joke. The public likes a person who can have a bit of fun. In fact, it worked for Boris Johnson in his early career, and look at him now, he's PM. You of course might hate the man, but you can't deny the effectiveness of the strategy.

Better late than never but it looks like I pissed over your crappy plan royal but, credit due, you tried." Cue Capaldi berating Clara for not getting in the Tardis because it was their queue to get the heck out of dodge.
