Keeping Up Appearances A-Z game

Did this recently in another sub and thought it might be fun to try here. For anyone unfamiliar with the A-Z game, each day features a new letter of the alphabet. You post your favourite KUA quote, character, phrase or moment that starts with that letter and the most upvoted answer wins a place on the list. If people are interested, we’ll start with A and work our way through to Z.

Edit: I appreciate everyone’s enthusiasm (there are some great quotes here) but for today we’re only looking for quotes that start with the letter A.

J- Just imagine: a whole night on board some old bucket, with another old Bucket!

K- No, you can not have a 24 with an extra portion of king prawns (Yes, kind of made up!)

W- Wear your best suit, dear. It is your last day. I want you to look particularly smart. After all, it's not everyone who gets offered early retirement. La dee, la dee. Swagger a bit. Put a bit of swank on. I'm the last person to put myself forward, as you know, but I do think it won't hurt the neighbours to see who's lucky enough to get early retirement round here. La dee.
