That was ‘Big Yellow Taxi’ by Joni Mitchell, a song in which Joni complains they ‘Paved paradise to put up a parking lot’, a measure which actually would have alleviated traffic congestion on the outskirts of paradise, something which Joni singularly fails to point out, perhaps because it doesn’t quite fit in with her blinkered view of the world.

Nevertheless, nice song..

:
No, no, no, no, I'm quite specifically asking you, do you forget to tape Cyrano de Bergerac with Gerard...
Michel:
Depardieu...
Alan:
Him, yeah!
Michel:
No, I don't ever forget to tape it because I saw it at the cinema when it came out.
Alan:
Right.
Michel:
Have you ever seen this film?
Alan:
Yes. Yes, I did see it...
Michel:
You like it?
Alan:
I'm... not... so keen on it, I mean, I don't like what they did with the idea, they set in in the 17th century, gave him a long nose, maybe it made it a bit funnier... but, but for the British, Bergerac is John Nettles... I... I thought you ruined it really... I'm just glad you haven't got your hands on "Lovejoy"... Probably set it in the future! When, of course, antiques will be even more expensive... Not a bad idea really!


Sorry not one line but a brilliant Partridgeism.

Alan Partridge:

How are we going to eat, and what floor’s the restaurant on? The answer is “The Chinese Way” and Level 42...

'Well, may I ask what you were expecting to see out of a Torquay hotel bedroom window? Sydney Opera House, perhaps? The Hanging Gardens of Babylon? Herds of wildebeasts swinging majestically..'
