FILMING on a new series of iconic Scots sitcom Still Game has kicked off after a nine year hiatus.  

The legendary comedy series will return to BBC One later this year in a six-part series featuring the original cast, including writers Ford Kiernan and Greg Hemphill. 

We decided to dig out a few of our favourite Still Game quotes from the show's rich back-catalogue.. or at least the ones suitable enough to share. 

"GET IT RIGHT ROUND YE FINPORT!"

The parting words of Winston Ingram to the coastal community he called home oh so briefly, it's the accompanying hand gesture that really make this a favourite. 

"Back aff, ya spooky b***h!"

Quite possibly the best line of the entire series. Following a heart operation, Jack's life hangs in the balance. As the pensioner approaches the pearly gates, beckoned on by the vision of his dear departed wife, who should pop up to yank him back down to earth with a bump and a sweary word for his dead wife but Victor. True bromance slips the bounds of this mortal coil. 

"It gives me great pleasure to be here today" "Naw it doesny!" "I've watched Craiglang grow and flourish" "naw ye huvny!"

In a scene quite likely to have been emulated in real life, a Craiglang notable is heckled whilst opening a new community centre. Och the Glasgae banter. 

"Sconio oh sconio, how I wish that you were mine. Sitting on a tea plate covered in margar-yne"

The lads reveal that poets, they are not, when they enter a competition to come up with a local bakery's new advertising slogan. The winning entry was a tad more succinct. 

Greenock Telegraph:

"He who hingeth aboot getteth heehaw"

Jack reveals wisdom worthy of the ages with this simple proverb. Words to live by indeed. 

"Oooh did ye hear that, Jack? They have pies." "Oh that's dandy because a wis gettin sick ae that lobster thermador"

The gourmet fare of The Clansman comes under the consideration of our intrepid pair and their razor-sharp wit. 

"Good theory Jack. Plausible. And it could've happened just like that, were it not for the fact that YOO are a greedy b*****d"

In The Mystery Of The Missing Teacakes, Victor remains sceptical about Jack's explanations as to why he's a biscuit down. 

"Ha. A map ae the store. It's a shop son, no a mountain range!" ........ "Where uhr we?

We've all been there. Whether Ikea or, as in this case, a cash and carry, you stride out into the aisles confidently all good intentions, and within five minutes are irredeemably lost. 

"He said 'et tu, Isa'. A never ate two ae anythin"

Isa reveals her ignorance of the Ides of March after Navid finds her shopping in Hyperdales, the large supermarket that is driving him out of business. An unlikley Brutus indeed. 

"I don't mean to speak ill of the dead but, he wis a p***k"

The proper reverence being shown by the residents of Craiglang to their dear departed comrades.
