A few more OFAH:
Del: "Asking us if we know anything about chandeliers is like asking Mr Kipling if he knows anything about cakes".
Del playing cards for big money with Boycey. Del: "Ffffffour aces!" Boycey: I didn't know you were good at maths, Del".
Del to Grandad when he's unscrewing the bolts doing the chandelier: "Do you need a jemmy, Grandad?" No thanks. I 'ad one before we left!"

Mrs Slocombe in Are You Being Served:
“I hope this isn’t going to take long, Captain Peacock. The last time I was late, a fireman had to climb out of my bedroom window and risk his life on a narrow ledge tryin’ to grab hold of my c.unt.”
Or something like that

I'm 95% certain it was in one of the early episodes. When I watched it I didn't think it was that funny but Lennard Pearce was such a brilliant actor that he could make a joke out of anything with perfect timing.

Love it: Blackadder was not my favourite sitcom (I'd go for the Likely Lads) but I suspect it had the highest proportion of great one-liners.
Have you done that from memory?
"When I caught Gerald, in '68, he was completely wild"
"Wild? I was absolutely lived!"
Does the book say the script is as originally written, and then make notes if anyone ever ad-libbed, or have they added the ad-libbing so that the script reflects what was broadcast?

"Give over Barb, they're like spaniels ears"
"What's that smell?
"It's Jim, he's done one of his Sunday ones"

Yes
"Uhm, chap over there of about 6, wearing jeans".
Father Ted: Dougal, you know you can praise God in other ways.
Father Dougal: Oh yeah, like that time you told me I could praise him just by leaving the room.
O'Reilly: I'm tellin' you, if the good lord...
Basil Fawlty: ...Is mentioned once more, I shall move you closer to him.

Not one line from memory, but so many in The Thick of It (aggressive Malcolm Tucker), tons of Paul Whitehouse stuff in the Fast Show, Faulty Towers and in Getting On.

My all-time favourite - I think it was 2 Ronnies:
Customer (Barker): I want some deoderant please.
Foreign shopkeeper with strange accent(Corbett): Ball or aerosol? (pronounced arrrsol)
Customer (indignant): Neither! Its for under my arms!
Or something like that. Not even certain which Ronnie did which part.
