Gramsci's mum was a bitch

Reading Mark's post and the mentioning of Gramsci reminded me of an episode of Spaced, the coolest comedy series I've seen in these last couple of years. In this episode, from the first series, Tim tells the story of a 'class war' type guy who had a dog called Gramsci. This name stems from the dog's ability to sniff out well-off people and attack them. Pretty neat, methinks. Anyway, one day this class war chap buys a scratch ticket and, wonder of all wonder, wins! It is then that Gramsci (the dog of course) leaps at him and bites his sodding knee off causing the rebel to eventually part with his cash in exchange for a prosthetic leg. If watching this doesn't make you burst out with laughter you probably watch Eileen Montesin shows, in which case you shouldn't even be here.
