Malcom Tucker returns
...well, kinda, as Peter Capaldi gives Armando Iannucci a Bafta
Peter Capaldi revived some of the choicest phrases of foul-mouthed spin doctor Malcolm Tucker on stage last night.
He was handing an honorary Scottish Bafta to he Thick of It creator Armando Ianucci – and used the occasion to revive some of the show's best-known lines.
Bafta tweeted a brief extract from his tribute here:
Amazing television and amazing catch phrases, #PeterCapaldi thanks @Aiannucci for his considerable contribution to comedy 😂👠#BAFTAScot2017 pic.twitter.com/QJ1GB9dvMe— BAFTA Scotland (@BAFTAScotland) November 5, 2017
