Ming Campbell's best (only?) joke for decades was aimed at Boris Johnson.
'He was something fresh and new for the game and I just don't know what I am going to do with all my wine now.'
Alex Ferguson pays tribute to the outgoing Jose Mourinho. The managers liked to sink their differences over a glass of claret - a very robust and manly claret, naturally.
'Tesco is the most loved organisation in Britain.'
We have a lot of time for Terry Leahy, boss of the supermarket chain, but perhaps he is mistaking convenience and omnipresence for love.
'I'm just the higher education spokesperson. Nobody tells me anything.'
Sarah Teather answers a question about Lib Dem education proposals, tongue pressed jauntily against cheek. We like her style.
'Northern Wreck'.
Huw Edwards turns (inadvertent) deft phrasemaker, making this slip when referring to the ailing bank on the news.
'I do Third World, I've been doing Third World since 1994.'
Naomi Campbell was explaining why she's now raising money for the UK flood appeal instead of seeking to help those in need further afield. Third World - so last decade.
'I'd like to take a break from it for a year and grow my hair. I am always worrying that people will get sick of me.'
Some might suggest that Martin Clunes displays a rare ability to sense the public mood, but we remain highly fond of him.
'I hope it hits me on the thigh pad and I get off strike.'
No false bluster from the fabulous Monty Panesar describing his strategy when facing a ball from a pace bowler.
