Emmerdale Farm1972
Amos:
Facts is facts, you'll never get anywhere if you don't face t'truth about things, which includes this driving.
Batty:
An' it's never occurred to you, I suppose, to face the fact that this is a tight little backward tin-pot tuppenny-hap-penny village full of half-baked yokels who can't see further than the ends of their noses when it comes to what the world's about nowadays. Who think we're still in the age of horse and carts, and if they see anything moving faster than a snail's pace they think the end of the world's coming.
Amos:
There's nobody round 'ere wi' horses and carts
Batty:
They've got horse and cart minds. Except you, an' your mind's tied up like a granny knot. You're goin' on about your concert for the starvin' children and bellyachin' about me cos I get about a bit faster than you're used to. Well I do it so as to get the best out of the land that we're farming! That's what we're about at NY Estates, growing food, plenty of it. And you ought to be helping us, not bleatin' about, gettin' in the way like a lot of short-sighted sheep
