[Steve and Rob are booked into a double room at the Inn]
Rob Brydon : This is a huge bed. We could easily share this bed.
Steve Coogan : It might be huge to you, it's average size to me.
Rob Brydon : Oh that's right, I forgot, you're considerably taller. What's the problem, anyway? What do you think's gonna happen? Eh?
Steve Coogan : You might touch my bottom.
Rob Brydon : Oh, all right. Were you an altar boy?
Steve Coogan : Yes, I was.
Rob Brydon : Seriously?
Steve Coogan : Yes.
Rob Brydon : Oh, all right. Well, I'll go on the sofa if you want, if it's... Sorry, I didn't realise we were into Oprah Winfrey territory. Are you seriously saying you were abused as a child when you were an altar boy?
Steve Coogan : Only verbally, and physically. Not sexually. Just punched by a priest.

Rob Brydon : Mmm. What's your's like?
Steve Coogan : Well, it tastes of tomatoes.

Steve Coogan : Look, the reason I was doing this trip was to bring Mischa along. She's passionate about food, she loves food.
Rob Brydon : She's the food buff then, out of the two of you?
Steve Coogan : She's a very confident foodie and I thought she could help me, and I wanted to show Mischa the... you know, the North. Show her a piece of me.
Rob Brydon : You're from Manchester. You could take her round and show her the gun crime sites.

Rob Brydon : [as Al Pacino] Maybe you're right. I don't know. But I see a guy who has something stuck up his ass, who's too uptight to let go.
Steve Coogan : No, I like humour, I like levity, I like brevity. I just like to...
Rob Brydon : Gravity? Where do you stand on that?
Steve Coogan : Firmly. On terra firma.
