The line comes from Matt Berry's work in What We Do in the Shadows, the television comedy about vampires sharing a house, where Berry plays the flamboyant vampire Laszlo Cravensworth. His theatrical, old-fashioned delivery turned many of Laszlo's put-downs into quotable moments for fans, and short clips of his insults circulate widely as reaction audio. Because the phrase is short, instantly recognisable and easy to drop into an edit, it has stayed popular for calling out cheeky behaviour long after viewers first heard it.

Matt Berry delivers a sharp cheeky prick insult in his Laszlo voice from What We Do in the Shadows, often used to call out cheeky behaviour in edits.
This clip captures Matt Berry delivering the insult cheeky prick with the full force of his distinctive, theatrical delivery, a low, rolling voice that makes the two words land like a punchline rather than a throwaway swear. The phrasing is crisp and dismissive, with Berry leaning into the second word for comic emphasis, so it sounds both posh and brutally blunt at the same time. Heard on its own, it feels like a character sizing someone up and dismissing them in an instant, which is why it works so well as a reaction: listeners recognise the attitude before they even place the show.
