Quotes

Mrs. Ferret:
Have you been fired?


Ferret:
[brushing it off] Fired?

[laughs]


Ferret:
Hahaha! Fired? Hahahaha

[more nervous now]


Mrs. Ferret:
Then why is the car for sale?

[we see the car through the house window; in the side window there is a crudely written sign saying FORSALE]


Ferret:
Oh that? That's a mistake. That's one of Rimmer's cockups. That should read Fors Ale. A new beer we're advertising.

[as giving a slogan]


Ferret:
Fors Ale - keeps you hearty and hale.


Mrs. Ferret:
Well I've never heard of it.


Ferret:
And you may never! Very hush hush.

How do we recommend titles?

With more than a million titles, it isn't feasible to handpick recommendations for every film. That's why we came up with a formula to suggest titles that fit along with the selected one. The formula uses factors such as user votes, genre and keywords to generate an automatic response. The system produces relevant results most of the time but since recommended titles are not manually chosen, occasionally they may include less than perfect matches.
