Top one liners

The latest filler poll reports that Peter Kay's "Garlic bread - it's the future, I've tasted it" is the best comic TV one liner.

In second was Caroline Aherne aka Mrs Merton to Debbie McGee "So what first attracted you to millionaire Paul Daniels?"

Father Ted is fourth with the classic "I'm not a fascist. I'm a priest. Fascists dress up in black and tell people what to do. Whereas priests... more drink?".

John Cleese's Basil Fawlty is eighth, responding to two guests speaking German: "Oh, you're German. I'm sorry, I thought there was something wrong with you."

To be honest, whatever Lucy Mangan may think, I think Kath's (Kath & Kim) "Oh no, Kim, monogamy's so old fashioned" in reply to Kim's "I've got the concept for the kitchen - solid monogamy" should be top. Still, nothing beats Frankie Howard's "infamy, infamy, they've all got it in for me".
