Quotes3

  • Edythe: Told you about Gerry, has she? Didn't take you long to move on, hmm Joe?
  • Joe Blumfield: Hello Edythe.
  • Edythe: Did she also tell you that she hangs around the soup kitchen at the station? A tramp masquerading as some sort of social secretary, my God.
  • Guinevere Pettigrew: Goodbye Mr. Blumfield.
  • [exits]
  • Joe Blumfield: No, actually, she didn't. Neither about that, nor about you and Gerry. But I'm grateful for the truth for a change.
  • Edythe: Transformations work both ways, Guinevere. It would take me thirty seconds to put you back in the soup kitchen queue. I told you I never forget a face. Victoria Station.
  • Guinevere Pettigrew: Nor have I forgotten with whom you shared a taxi last night.
  • Edythe: Oh, you have. If you want to continue working for Delysia, you have. Now, we all of us need things in our life. I need Joe for his, well, he's a man of connections. And you need, you need to stay off the streets, I imagine.
  • Edythe: Well I didn't answer the telephone because I *couldn't* answer the telephone!
  • Delysia: Why not?
  • Edythe: I was in the bathroom.
  • Delysia: Having a bath?
  • Edythe: No, I just - didn't answer the telephone. And now Joe says the engagement's off! Just because of one stupid little misunderstanding!
