Quotes:

David: Ah, muppets!

Tim: Team leader don’t mean anything, mate.
Gareth: Excuse me, it means I’m the leader of a team.
Tim: No it doesn't, it’s a title someone’s given you to get you to do something they don’t want to do, for free. Right? It’s like making the div kid at school milk monitor. No one respects it.
Gareth: I think they do.
Tim: No they don’t, Gareth.
Gareth: Er, yes they do, because if people were rude to me then I used to give them their milk last. So it was warm.
