What is believed to be the most comprehensive list of 'Helenisms' can be found here. My favourites would have to be the following:

Dean (when asked what scared him most): "Insanity"
Helen: "Insanity? What does insanity mean? I'll never remember that"

Stuart: "What's Deans greatest fear?"
Bubble: "Going insane"
Helen: "No it isn't, its insanity he's scared of"

[Mark]

Helen I like being pink I do!!!!!!

Helen I like blinking I do!!!!!

I'm not sure if this is legit, because I've never seen it discussed by anyone here, but it was in an email I was sent.

I like to think it's true!

Scene: Helen and Paul playing with the travel chess in the den.

Helen: If these bits are magnetic, will they stick to our faces?
Paul: Only if you're the Terminator.

Here are some of my faves:

'How come there are less people in here than we started with?' She did actually say that, bless her!

The famous, 'I like blinking I do'

'How come you lot have all got 8 GCSES'S and I have only got 2?'

[Mark]

When they were playing the alphabet game I will always remember this : -

When she was asked animals beginning with the following letters she said -

J - Jimmy, Isn't that a baby kangaroo?
O - Origami
S - Sophisticated
N - Nasty Bear

another is when she was talking to Brian she said

"Have you ever been on a plance thats crashed?"

Mark

I never knew she said that about the plane crash to Brian - funny stuff!!

It is true! it was said on the last night in the den, post first fumble and before they were all called into the boys bedroom.

As usual, Paul answered absolutely without irony. Completely on the same wavelength.

Just like when he told her his dad fried chips in a bucket over a bunsen burner - didn't even hesitate or wait for the inevitable question, just said, 'gas flame jet thing' and carried on. Sweet innit?

I don't remember this at all, but it is so funny. Don't you just lov'em?

"I don't get that - you don't spell magic with a 'j', you spell magic with a 'm'"

I agree with you, H!!

[LEE]

What about:-

'There's no cameras on us while I'm cutting your hair, Paul!'

said while looking directly into a mirror.

[Fruity]

I liked:

"I dreamed last night when I was asleep..."

"Is the jelly cooked yet?"

"Yeah, you know Jack Daniels... he does all the magic stuff on the telly"

Brian: "What if she's (Helen) got an IQ of 25?"
Helen: "Actually, I'm only 23"

"How much chicken is in chickpeas?"

[Mark]

Found a load more

"God! There are 9 of us in here! It does not seem to be as many as at the start!"


"There's less people in the house than we started with"


When Dean was playing "The Look of Love" with Amma singing along: "Is that one of your songs, Dean?"

"What is a Liberal Democrat?"

Big Brother: "This is big brother, a meteorite has landed in the garden. You have 2 minutes to get dressed"
Helen: "Dressed? What, as in clothes?"

When Bubble was balancing 3 juggling balls on Brian's head as he was reading a book on the sofa: "that's fantastic that is. Does he know?"

"Those infrared cameras can see under your duvet covers"


Josh: "I've had 4 wet dreams... I wake up in the morning covered."
Helen: "Covered in what?"

"I've never been stalked. It doesn't happen in Wales"

(When told about the sweetcorn kernal eating world record task) "What are kernels?"

Bless!!!!!!

Ah! That's where I saw them. Good page that, actually. Probably the best list of Helenisms on the net - i'm sure those who compiled it put in a lot of work.

[Mark]

I believe I owe an apology.......

Sorry Helen for not asking you if I could use your quotes.

I will try to next time.

Happy Christmas Disco!
