Darren Lamb quotes - Radio Times, October 2006

Stephen Merchant in Extras  © BBC
Bungling beanpole Darren Lamb (Stephen Merchant) may not be much of a showbiz agent, but he does provide plenty of laughs. Here are a few of his finest bons mots.


I dunno, you've never struck me as a funny bloke.

Darren offers moral support for Andy's plan to star in his own sitcom.


Will he still get paid even if his performance is crap?

Darren negotiates hard over a possible movie role for Andy.


People laugh at him; they never laugh with him…

…of client Shaun Williamson, whom Darren always calls "Barry from Eastenders". Or just "Barr".


Andy: You just want someone to call up and give me an advert?

Darren: That would be amazing, that would be brilliant.

Andy: OK. Make sure the phone's on the hook then.

Darren: You joke about it, it was unplugged for two days - no-one noticed. Tsk.
