- Alvin: Instead of traveling by bicycle, I might have been a Greek shipping millionaire.
- Billy: Tha's not even Greek.
- Truly: He could lie! I mean if, if people saw him dancing and breaking a few plates he might get away with it.
- Alvin: I'm speaking hypothetically.
- Billy: That's Greek for a start.
- Alvin: Assuming I was born Greek.
- Clegg: Uh, did your mother know you were Greek? I mean, as far as I know she never went farther than Bridlington.
- Truly: Well, maybe he could be a Bridlington shipping millionaire.
- Alvin: It's not the same, is it? I'm talking oil tankers and love affairs with opera singers.
- Billy: Have you seen the size of opera singers! Tha'd need the bicycle just to give her a cuddle.
- Glenda: Could I ask you all a personal question?
- Ivy: Well, I don't see why not. They're usually the more interesting.
- Nora: And it's not as if there's any men here with big ears and a loose tongue.
- Nelly: Just a bunch of women with big ears and a loose tongue.
- Nora: I wouldn't say that!
- Nelly: Well, neither would I if there *were* any men here with big ears and a loose tongue.
