Jim Hacker: You mean to tell me that when the chips are down, you’re on my side, not Humphrey’s?
Bernard Woolley: Minister, it’s my job to see that the chips stay up.
I love Bernard he’s such a little dweeb. was watching the writing on the wall today and jim said something like “we’ve got it in the bag, this will really rock the boat” and you can just hear the RAGE in Bernard’s voice, like he’s gritting his teeth, when he says “you don’t put boats in bags”. adore this man.
