Malcolm Tucker Rampage Compilation (Part 1) | The Thick of It | BBC Comedy Greats

[@christophercantrell2821]

My favorite Malcolm insult is when he calls Ollie a “Quentin Blake illustration ” there has never been a more perfect description, and reference.

[@davidrider2264]

I think its when he says to him "Oi. Love Actually..."

[@patrickwilliams6143]

@@davidrider2264 I think the "love actually" line was Jamie not Malcolm. Not 100% though. My fave is "Yok Ono and the 2 remaining Beatles, fuck off" or "omnishambles".

[@DJSamsonofficial]

@@patrickwilliams6143 It is indeed Jamie, but it's from the "In the Loop" movie.

[@simon3953]

ollie should have called him a lucien freud painting in return

[@drlogic1978]

Its the double insult of a "badly drawn" Quentin Blake illustration that nails me

[@douglasmilton2805]

Ever noticed how Malcom is always friendly and polite to people like cleaning ladies etc? That’s the real Malcom.

[@AndriyValdensius-wi8gw]

You have to respect him for that.

[@olavbjortomt1596]

He has respect for basic competence and the ability to do a job. Unfortunately, politicians are often incompetent and can never do their job. Therefore, they invite ridicule and terror.

[@trumpetwomble]

99% of the people in government are useless muppets and Malcolm treats them as such.

Yep, and to the nurse/receptionist at the hospital he went to when visiting Ollie.

[@Zestieee]

Peter Capaldi is absolutely outstanding in every role, I think he's prone to these grumpy and angry characters, which is funny because in real life he seems to be one of the sweetest people on Earth. By the way, this is exactly how the Twelfth Doctor would've acted and talked if Doctor Who wasn't meant to be a family show. I just imagine him being exactly like this when we don't see him.

I'm watching this in 2022. At time of writing we've had a Prime Minister in place for 40 days, since her predecessor was forced to resign for serial lying to Parliament and breaking emergency laws he himself enacted. We're on our fourth Chancellor in four months. The economy has crashed. I watch The Thick Of It now with a kind of wistful nostalgia.

I was always rooting for Malcolm, sad how it all ended.

[@NimbusHex]

Agreed, and I know Ollie probably isn't one of the more liked characters from TToi, but it's honestly pretty impressive how he quietly orchestrates Malcolm's downfall. I kind of would have liked to have seen how Ollie would get along in Malcolm's position, though it wouldn't have been nearly as entertaining.

[@CheerfullyCynical829]

You honestly thought this guy would have even a semi-happy ending?! 😂😢😂

[@MsPea]

​@@CheerfullyCynical829 -- I think it would have been better if Malcolm was the last one standing when the series ended. Malcolm's manipulations and tirades deserved to go on and on, terrorizing half-witted, pompous ministers for years to come.

[@Tokmurok]

​@@NimbusHex Malcolm's downfall started as soon as he needed other people's help. Before he was the angel and the devil, later he became another sinner lost in hell. I have a feeling Ollie would lose that position not after long though. He just doesn't have the guts, he has cunning and takes the opportunities when he sees it, but he's a Slytherin not a Griffindor. Ollie would have done better if he actually helped restore Malcom and work as his right hand man. He is more suited for that role. It's always those who cannot handle power that seek it the most.
