Please Sir.


(Read out loud in a cockney accent for best effect.)
Please, sir, I want some more. Y'see, sir, I've not eaten for fourteen days since me mum died of the croup. I would take an entire Apple Pie. Yes, sir. Thank you sir. Goodbye, sir.

You know what it's from right? It's an abridged quote from The Imposters. Which, incidentally, we have found that only you, me and Dan like. Evidenced by the way everyone is sleeping by the end of it whenever we host a viewing.

Little Ana is so cute!

That quote is originally from Oliver Twist when little Oliver got sent to an orphanage.

One of my favorite movies borrowed from it in a scene where the food in a private school was awful. The little boy took his bowl to the headmaster and said: 'Please sir, I don't want any more. No sir'.
