- Nell Cresset: [about Gillian] Next to this slim young thing, I feel like a very old carrier bag who's bottom's about to go.
- Madeleine Dunnock: They treated me like... well, like a...
- [mouths the word 'sex']
- Madeleine Dunnock: ... object.
- Simon Harrap: A sex object?
- Madeleine Dunnock: [gasps] Don't say that word!
- Simon Harrap: I'm sorry, a sex...
- [mouths the word 'object']
- Nell Cresset: [about her newly bought dress] It's supposed to follow the natural line of my body. Though how the devil it's supposed to find it, lord knows. I haven't seen the natural line of my body for years.
- [changing the subject]
- Nell Cresset: Had any further thoughts?
- Simon Harrap: What, about your body?
- Madeleine Dunnock: I went on a package trip to one of them, eh, erotic locales.
- Simon Harrap: Eh, don't you mean exotic?
- Simon Harrap: I'm getting a teeny bit fed up of everybody discussing my sex life.
- Derek Yates: It's a pretty difficult subject to avoid. It's a bit like the weather, there's so much of it.
- Nell Cresset: No bribes for me, Simon?
- Simon Harrap: No, Nell, I know you're incorruptible, like the boy scout movement. Talking of which, where, where on Earth did you get that terrible tent you're wearing?

- Nell Cresset: Don't be so damned rude.

- Simon Harrap: I didn't expect either of you to understand...
- Derek Yates: Willing to admit it, Simon, I've got three kids, you know, and at least two of them occured as a result of whirlwind, spontaneous animal sort of thing.
- Simon Harrap: I'm so sorry, Derek.
- Derek Yates: Admittedly, the last one wasn't quite so much of a whirlwind, we had double glazing put in the bedroom by then.
- Nell Cresset: If you've both finished discussing your wind, could we talk about Sam?
