Harry Hill: Jacob Scribble

Quotes 

• Jacob Scribble : Here's the part we need: "So they went to the Emerald Palace to find the Wizard of Oz".

  [There's a rumbling. Jacob gasps] 

  Wizard of Oz : [with a bellow that shakes the whole library]  WHO DARES DISTURB ME?

  Maurizio di Mauro : Ohhh... d-ehhh... N-not me, it-i-i-i-it was him!

  [He points to Jacob] 

  Jacob Scribble : Begging your pardon, Mr. Wizard, but we need your help to reverse a dastardly magical spell.

  Wizard of Oz : I AM THE MIGHTIEST OF WIZARDS. I KNOW ALL AND SEE ALL. AND YOU TWO HAVE BUMBLED BIG TIME.

  Maurizio di Mauro : We have? How?

  Wizard of Oz : YOU'VE GOT THE WRONG WIZARD.

  Jacob Scribble : "Find the wizard of the house, play a game of cat and mouse." Of course! How could I have been so stupid? We've got to make tracks back to Magic Manor. The wizard of the house is Bubonic! Or Tyrannia!

• Jacob Scribble : Personally I don't care much for fairytales. We ravens pop up in so many of them and always as enchanted princes. No-one realizes how truly charming, wise and witty we are!

  Maurizio di Mauro : Yes, your species could definitely do with a little image improvement. Maybe a spin doctor would help.

• Tyrannia Vampirella : Out with your plan already.

  Beelzebub Preposteror : It's simple. We put a hex on Megalopolis that will turn all of its citizens into fairytale characters! And then watch as the place is overrun with giants, ogres and evil witches!

  Jacob Scribble : Giants and ogres...?

  Maurizio di Mauro : And evil witches...?

  [Oh my] 

• Jacob Scribble : Auntie Noah! The wizards have turned the whole city into...

  Auntie Noah : Shh! Can't you see we're listening to these delightful musicians? These cats can really wail.

  Maurizio di Mauro : But, a bunch of fairytales have come to life, a-and...

  Auntie Noah : Fairytales? What fairytales?

  [Maurizio and Jacob look behind them and see that none other than the Musicians of Bremen are playing music for the High Council. The High Council applauds as the Musicians exit] 

  Jacob Scribble : Do you think that's normal? Even your musicians are out of a fairytale!
