13 Quote Icons

[thisbluespirit]

Not for NaArMaMo - I have no idea how long ago I made them. It may have been a year, but first I planned to do more and then I was having Photobucket troubles. (I still am, but I'm putting icons on TinyPic for the moment and that seems okay.) Anyway, some unspecified time ago, I finally got to watch Drop The Dead Donkey and my first thought before I'd even decided whether or not I liked it was that the world needed icons of Gus-isms.

So, here are 11 plus two other quotes from the series.

Speak of Between the Lines and everyone goes DTDD! (Second mensh to me today).

Nice work:)

I like the new journal look too - Silver is back!

I change about once a year, and last time I changed when I was feeling down, so I decided I was feeling more cheerful and I should have Silver back. And then he had to have matching colours. :-)

And thanks!

We loved DtDD!

It was very funny & I enjoyed my long overdue watch of it! (I was old enough when it was first on to hanker after watching it, but not quite old enough to declare TV independence and watch it.)

Whipping the 'Tangent Boulevard' one - it speaks to me!

You're welcome. :-)

These are great! Good old Gus. I always love his dialogue, and also when the others take the mick. Great character, and great show.

Thanks! It was almost the first thing I thought - they'd make great LJ icons!

They do! There was no such thing when I saw the show. I just thought "great lines!" instead. ;) My favourite characters are Dave and Joy, but Gus is brilliant.

I remember that series! Great lines, too :)

Thanks! I always wanted to watch it at the time, but never really could, so I finally indulged my curiosity over the past year, and it was still very funny.

I love these so much that I wish the series was available over here. I think the pilot might be on YouTube.

Thank you! The series was a comedy based on 1990s current affairs, so it might seem more than a bit odd now! It is still funny, though, especially once it gets going. These quotes are all Gus-isms - Gus being one of those managers who goes on courses and learns jargon. I'd watched about 1 episode before I'd decided that clearly the world needed Gusisms on icons. :-)
