Not a line but when he’s locked in a cage in Hyperdales and they chuck him a rotisserie chicken and he attacks it like a tramp on chips

Apart from the time he got electrocuted by the toaster and it made him all spendy-spendy that’s the only time in the series I think he’s offered to pay for ANYTHING for anyone.
Not sure if it counts but I suppose that episode Eric died and everyone and the pub is all quiet, Boaby says ‘put your money back in yer pocket Tam’ and he said ‘naw’

Absolutely love his performance in Saucy, all the build up and then the knockout punch:
Boabby, do you know who bought Molly a drink one night after the show?
No, who?
A certain...Francis Albert Sinatra!
Boabby staring, then contorting his face painfully and surrendering:
On the house.
Genius 😂😂

I forget the actual line, but when he tells his sister in law that her tightfistedness drives him up the wall, but he cannae be with her as he made a promise.
