"My Family" One of the Boys (TV Episode 2007) - Gabriel Thomson as Michael Harper

Nerys Bailey : Roger Bailey Jr! What do I say about an empty plate?

Roger Bailey : Oh!

Nerys Bailey : [Cuts up his food] Let's make these pieces a bit smaller!

Michael Harper : And I thought *my* family was dysfunctional!
Michael Harper : You alright, Alfie?

Alfie Butts : I'm in love, Michael. With a most beguiling creature.

Michael Harper : She isn't electronically tagged like the last one, is she?

Alfie Butts : No... no, it's Charlie. I like older women. They really know their way around a man's body.

Michael Harper : Well, you picked the right one there, then!
Ben : When was the last time you and me played golf together?

Michael Harper : When I was nine. You made me carry your clubs in the pouring rain.

Ben : Oh, yeah! Good times, eh? Good times! We should do it again, you know?
Ben : Tell me it's not true, Susan!

Susan Harper : I'm afraid it is!

Ben : Oh, come on! Mikey!

Michael Harper : Sorry, dad!

Ben : The world is such an unjust place!

Susan Harper : Don't you think you're overreacting slightly?

Ben : But they would have been happy in Wales! Couldn't you still convince them?

Susan Harper : I'm afraid not. Roger told Nerys he loved Abi and that they wanted to stay down here!

Ben : But they wanted to go yesterday. What changed their minds?

Susan Harper : Search me.
