The IT Crowd has become a beloved classic in British comedy since its debut in 2006. Centered around a quirky trio in the IT department, the show offers a perfect mix of nerdy brilliance and absurd humor. The socially awkward genius, who we’ll call Morris, delivers some unforgettable lines, while Chris O’Dowd (yes, the one from Bridesmaids) plays Roy, the laid-back team member with a knack for sarcastic quips. Jen, the team’s voice of reason, adds her own unique flair to their chaotic dynamic.
To celebrate this iconic show, we’ve gathered a selection of some of the most side-splitting quotes that capture the essence of these memorable characters. Whether you’re an old fan reminiscing about the good times or a newbie looking to find a reason to binge-watch (and trust me, you should), you’re in for a treat.
Morris
- “I came here to drink milk and kick butt… and I’ve just finished my milk.”
- “Prepare to put mustard on those words because soon you’ll be feasting on a big slice of humble pie straight from the oven of shame, set at gas mark ‘egg on your face.’”
- Morris: “You took it?”
Roy: “Yeah.”
Morris: “But that’s theft!” - “I embrace my quirks. Weirdness is my only asset, along with my impeccable style.”
- Bomb Disposal: “I’m having a few issues with the robot.”
Morris: “What’s the operating system?”
Bomb Disposal: “Uh… Vista.”
Morris: “We’re doomed!” - “Dear Sir/Madam, I regret to inform you of a fire at… no, too stiff. Dear Sir/Madam. Fire!!! Help me!!! 123 Carrendon Road. Eagerly awaiting your response. Best, Morris.”
- “I can see why she’s single; she’s quite ‘divorceable.’ You meet her and can’t wait to get her to court.”
- Roy: (Singing) “We don’t need no education.”
Morris: “Oh yes, you do. That was a double negative.” - “I find music perplexing and irritating.”
- “What the flip are you staring at? Do you think this is funny? Do you think this is some kind of mother-flipping joke? Mother flippers think everything’s a mother flipping joke.”
Roy
- “People. What a bunch of idiots.”
- “Never knew what a stress machine was this morning, and now we have two.”

Roy: “Don’t even get me started. They pop unexpectedly and terrify me.” - “Hello, IT. Have you tried turning it off and then on again?”
- “My backside is not a canvas.”
- (On Jen’s infected laptop) “If this were a person, I’d shoot it right in the face.”
- “Wait! What’s Jen doing online?”
- (At a funeral) Jen: “Just say, ‘sorry for your loss’ and move on.”
Roy: “Sorry for your loss. Move on.” - “Oh…morning. Wow. When did the English start drinking like that? You folks drink like you’ve got something to escape.”
- “The last time I exercised? Never.”
- Roy: “How hard is it to remember 911?”
Morris: “You mean 999.”
Jen: “You shouldn’t have agreed to look after it in the first place.”
Roy: “Thanks, Jen, that’s super helpful advice for a situation that happened last week.”
Jen
- “I’m a proud nerd.”

Morris: “Is Aunt Irma not a nice person? I have an aunt like that.”

Morris: “What time of month? The weekend? Does Aunt Irma visit then?”
Jen: “No… you know, it’s high tide.”
Morris: “We’re not near the coast.”
Jen: “I’m closed for repairs… I’ve succumbed to the communists!”
