Alan Cumming: Piers

Quotes 

• Piers Cuthbertson-Smyth : [in a boat, after Posh and the 2 young fans fall into the Thames]  I want a close-up of that wet infant!

  Jess : [holding a boom mic]  Look, Piers, I'm only getting you shouting.

  Piers Cuthbertson-Smyth : [short-tempered]  Well, shush then!

• Piers Cuthbertson-Smyth : [interviewing the Spice Girls on the Telly]  But you DO like boys, don't you, Geri?

  Ginger Spice : C'mon.

  [facetiously] 

  Ginger Spice : Is the Pope a Catholic?

  Piers Cuthbertson-Smyth : Apparently he is, yes.

  Male Reporter : [later, on the News, on the Telly]  Church leaders have reacted with shock to reports that the Spice Girls have cast doubt on the religious convictions of the Pope. A Vatican spokesman said the pontiff was hurt and confused by the suggestion that he might not be Catholic. We asked the Bishop of Candleford what he thought.

  Bishop : It's a terrible suggestion! Almost blasphemous! OF COURSE the Pope's a Catholic, otherwise he wouldn't have been invited to become Pope, would he? I'd like to know what evidence the Spice Girls have to support these allegations! I really would!

• Piers Cuthbertson-Smyth : [singing while inquiring of three getting in on one ticket]  Tonight is the night when three become one.
