Sir Charles : Claire! I said, Ralph is back.
Lady Claire Gurney : Thank you, Charles. I'll have a vodka and tonic.
Dinsdale Gurney : I say, guv'nor, the guv'nor is back. Mummy, I was just telling the guv'nor that the guv'nor is back.
Lady Claire Gurney : Charles! With ice.
Dinsdale Gurney : I'm repeating myself, calling the guv'nor the guv'nor and Daddy the guv'nor as well.

Jack Arnold Alexander Tancred Gurney, 14th Earl of Gurney : Stop! You're making me a stunted dwarf, a deformed midget, a crippled newt!
Dinsdale Gurney : What are you doing down there?
Jack Arnold Alexander Tancred Gurney, 14th Earl of Gurney : It's your negative "insinuendos."
Dinsdale Gurney : Insinuendo?
Jack Arnold Alexander Tancred Gurney, 14th Earl of Gurney : Insinuendo is insinuation towards innuendo, brought on by increased negativism out of a negative reaction to your father's positivism.
Dinsdale Gurney : I don't know what the devil you're going on about, but I resent your attitude.
