For those that don't know - in the UK these two actors also both played the role of the prime minister in two very different series.
Paul Eddington was the PM in Yes, Prime Minister. A brilliant comedy about British politics.
Ian Richardson was PM in the original version of House of Cards.
Both were absolutely perfect in their respective parts.
On our trip into downtown Vancouver for our grad party , we had a limo and we were winding down the window the whole trip asking people if they had any gray poupon.
You still can lol
Also you can ask “do you have any mustard?”
And when they say no, you say “well then you’d better ketchup”
Then you do a sick burnout and leave them eating dust
Instructions unclear. I was t-boned and several people, including myself, died.
I'm so sorry for your loss (of yourself)
Eating dust without mustard. The shame.
gotta hit em with that grey poupon

Wow that gives some context to a core memory for me. Thanks!
Yes, Minister (starting with series 2) is so so so good. It really said what they wanted to say.
Yes, PM, (to me) never had the same oomph, but Eddington and Hawthorne are so damn charming it keeps you around.
That's true but "The Key" (Season 1 Episode 4) of Yes Prime Minister had me choking with laughter. One of the best episodes of British Sitcom ever.
Pardon me, but...
We can never go back to the way things were.

So that's what that one scene in "Blue Harvest" was referencing.
Who said I couldn't today?
Do you want to get shot? The 90s were a simpler time.
I hear guns existed back in the Before Times too.
Yeah, but people are a lot more shooty now.
If you think that's true, I feel like you didn't live through the same 90s I did lol

Carjacking generally doesn't involve someone in one car stealing a second car.

😬
That article only goes back to 2018 tho
Rose tinted glasses, my dude. It also depends on the location. Most places I've lived have gotten A LOT safer in the past 3 decades.
Shootings still happen, though.
Well, shit.
Thanks for that info.
Someone doesn't remember how ridiculously violent the 90s were.
Violent crime is lower today than the 90’s.
We carried a jar of mustard in the glove box for precisely this purpose. We always hoped someone would ask!
My great uncle's response:
Yeah, in the tube between my legs!

It was one of the gags in that family guy precursor pilot.

Fuck that was hilarious back then
That was way more entertaining than anything family guy has put out in 20 years....
It’s a shame they made both car windows and mustard illegal
