So should I if I knew things such as the Prime Minister's name.

We'll trade Doug Spaulding for Phil, straight across. Plus we'll get Phil a professor's chair at UCLA.

wow, If I watch Only Fools and Horses, do you think I can get a UK citizenship, too?

Now, that is short and easy enough to remember.

You'll have to learn Polish first!

Hey! Nobody's mentionedHi-de-hi!, Till Death us do Part, Steptoe and Son, The Likely Lads, One Foot in the Grave or 'Allo 'Allo!. Maybe these sitcoms don't travel well?

I thought I'd mentioned Steptoe and Son. I used to watch this as a child (and enjoyed it because of the extreme characterisation of Wilfred Brambell). Then when I re-discovered it as an adult, I realised what a genius piece of DRAMA it was. Hilarious, yes, but also tragic. The very first episode is one of the most moving pieces of comedy you will ever see.

May I have a professor's desk, too?

Perhaps we should do a Cage-Travolta face swap thing so that nobody will know.

I would have done, but I had to stop somewhere!

I'm actually familiar with Till Death Do Us Part, Steptoe and Son, One Foot in the Grave and 'Allo 'Allo.
