    I doubt the BBC will be showing any repeats of It Ain't Half Hot Mum. Too un-PC for today.

    Gunner Graham: But the Sun isn’t an anatomical entity, it’s an inanimate object. How can we possibly fight it, Sergeant-Major?

    Sergeant-Major Williams: Let me tell you, Gunner La-De-Dah Graham, the British Army can fight anything! Intimate or not!
