My two favourite quotes from Kryten:-
"I'm sorry sir,I seem to have a medium sized axe buried in my spinal column.
That sort of thing can really puts a crimp on your day" ( QUARANTINE )

"And having just blown your nose why do you always,and I mean ALWAYS have to
look at the contents of your hankychief?
I mean why?
What do you expect to see in there?
A senstuean landscape?(couldn't remember this one)
The face of the madonna?
A Shakespearean sonnet? " ( QUARANTINE )

Medium size fire axe, please.. :)

I'm not sure if this is because I'm right, or for some more obscure reason,
but my memory supplies me with the words 'turner seascape' - As if it matters.

'A turner seascape, perhaps?' ? Or something..

Yep. One of my faves as well...

>What do you expect to see in there?

"A Turner seascape?" (Joseph Mallord William Turner, 1775-1851: English
painter in oils and watercolor, mainly of landscape, historical and
seascape subjects--Thames and Hudson Dictionary fo Art and Artists :)

>The face of the madonna?

Sorry, the grammar-meter is on vacation this week. Please hold all
punctuation and spelling mistakes until next week... :-)

Hmmmm, how old *IS* Kryten ? We know he is from (was it ?) the 22nd C, and
has knowledge of several C's after that, and is still around 3 million years
after C21, hmmmmmmmm.
