Gen. Sir Thomas Picton
- Sarah: Mama, Iggy has promised to bring me a cuirassier's helmet to use as a work basket - without blood in it, Mama.
- Duchess of Richmond: And one for me, young man - *with* the blood.
- Sir William Ponsonby: And where do you plan to stick your Frenchman, Hay?
- Lord Richard Hay: I thought under the right arm, sir.
- Sarah: See? He has it all planned.
- General Sir Thomas Picton: When you meet a cuirassier beam-to-beam, you'll be lucky if you bring away your life with you, never mind his helmet. Boy, you'll learn the art of fighting from the French.
- Duke of Wellington: Bylandt's's brigade has broken. Plug the gap, if you please.
- General Sir Thomas Picton: Gordon, get your bastards up on to the crest. I'll bring up the rest of the brigade.
- Lord Gordon: Don't hurry yourself, Pic. My lads will hold them, aye, 'til you come.
- General Sir Thomas Picton: Get forward, damn your eyes!
- Duke of Wellington: They're coming on in the same old style.
- General Sir Thomas Picton: Well, then we shall have to meet them in the same old style.
