Jamie is so terrifying lmao you actually feel like he would physically assault someone whereas you don't have the same feeling with Malcolm

[@TheAlps36]

Malcolm will verbally kill you while Jamie will physically kill you

[@jakefitzgerald8603]

Malcom literally punches Glenn in the face though

[@blueribenaberry]

Yeah, I know what you mean. Jamie feels like he's just got unhinged dynamism, whereas Malcolm is calculated & just finds the idiocy surrounding him infuriating.

[@frankrappa4765]

Well he is the crossest man in Scotland. 🤣🤣🤣

[@supremeworld87]

@@jakefitzgerald8603 yeah that's true though I did find that was out of character for malcolm. Hes never got physical I'm any way before then and in "in the loop" he talks about how he maims people psychologically not physically

"not playing a game here, i actually f'king hate you" - walks in disgust .... "he trained as a priest"

he actually did!

[@UltraAporia]

@@adamgibson7181 yes the actor actually did which makes me think Capaldi improvised that line. Capaldi said the cast was actually a wee bit disturbed by him lol

[@oooooooooorly]

"Yes, it will be on vibrate!" The delivery of that line is priceless.

[@crowseye7968]

“Just let me finish there” “He’s not interrupting him?” Underrated Gold!

[@0407luke]

Proof The Thick Of It is only fiction: "Paxman isn't interrupting him".

[@silphaer5353]

*Paxo

[@stevecooksley]

That was the joke - he was so bad even Paxman didn't interrupt him.

[@roojames]

"He trained as a priest" -- even funnier when you know the actor who played Jamie actually did train to be a priest

[@andyr0ck]

Whaaaaaaaa? Did he??

[@davekp6773]

@@andyr0ck Yep, but girls got in the way and he decided a life as a priest was not what he wanted.

"DO YOU WANT A FUCKING SPLINTERED GLASS FACIAL!?" Look at the actress playing Sam struggling not to piss her pants hahahaha

[@MitziTsetse]

"You never told us you had epilepsy... of the eyes." OMFG, I just sobbed with laughter.

[@gmunden1]

I almost choked on my cereal when he said that!

I love Peter just... letting Stewart completely finish insulting his wife before responding. Peter is such a great character.

[@murdomaclachlan]

Fun fact: Paul Higgins, the actor of Jamie McDonald, actually trained as a priest until the age of 17, but gave it up when he began dating. Nice little nod in the writing there. It's a shame that scene was deleted, it's one of my favourites from Jamie.

[@Theseamus2000]

I heard that line was improvised by Peter

[@LifeOfRy]

@@Theseamus2000 He likely did improvise it knowing Higgins did in fact train as a priest.

[@torgostheme]

"...you're devoted to her again..."

[@FriedAbortions]

I wished they had more episodes with Malcolm and Jamie every scene they were in was a foulmouthed Pinky and the Brain episode

[@CloneJFK]

"What the fuck is he talking about?" "He looks like he's going to shit himself! Is he going to shit himself?" "I'm going to have to phone in a bomb scare..." Ben's appearance on News Night is fabulous.

[@crewshewac]

funny thing is Jamie (Phil Higgins) really trained for a priest as a kid.. you gotta love peter's improvs :)

[@StrangeDaysGaming]

"Well that implies his home secretary is a drug taking homosexual." "that's not...bad....is it?"

[@douglasmilton2805]

Roger Hallam just HAS to play Christopher Hitchens when they get round to doing a biopic.

Well she gets on well with Malcolm so she clearly matches them well.

One of the greatest unanswered questions in TV history. Did Glenn ever finish white washing his sister's cottage?

Did anyone notice in the episode where glen was having a complete breakdown in the office he was going on about Hitler and referred to Chris Addison character as tinky wonky he is hiding behind filing cabinet stifling his laughter..🤣🤣🤣🤣 rewound that bit about 4 times..Was funny as fuck.

[@JesperHauerslev]

Shame these didn't make it into the final cut as these seems to be the scenes they had the most fun making! :)

[@TheKamikaze456]

He trained as a priest.. oh lord lol

[@Bedfordshireman]

The actor who plays him, Paul Higgins, actually did train to be a priest at one point.

[@ladycplum]

+TheSaltireAtheist Until he discovered girls, of course.

[@thatnorwegianguy1986]

I tought Peter Capaldi who plays Malcom trained as a priest I believe he said so in an interview.

It's in these videos that you see what good actors they are: some of this is just improvised. Genius stuff.

I was crying after Ben came out of the interview. Jamie was furious! LOL

"Well, not-not having an answer is not the same as not knowing..." "What the fuck is he talking about?" Rise of the Nutters, a Television masterpiece

[@burnbobquist8999]

Sad that so many scenes were deleted, i liked the little chat between Jamie, Malcom, Tammi and Oli where Malcom says "Happy new year by the way" and his talk with Glenn where he is being polite.
