"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Also, the tremendous media consolidation which started back then (but that wasn't Reagan's fault, was it?)

Clinton years, I think.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Clinton years, I think.

That's not shopped. I'm sure Watson is rescuing Holmes there, and taking the rare opportunity of a gagged Holmes to get a few quips in. You know, with a riding crop in his hand.
