Ella Muggins
- Ella Muggins: Regimental Sergeant-Major Henry Albert Muggins - ooooh the tales he could tell - he was the biggest liar in Camberwell!
- Millie: I do think it's a bit thick carrying your implements back and forth with you Mrs Muggins. Can't say it adds to people's respect for us either.
- Agnes: She's quite right Ella - there is no need to advertise that we're cleaning ladies.
- Ella Muggins: Stop it you two. To do my job properly I need the proper tools. In the second place, are you suggesting that we're doing work that we ought to be ashamed off? I'm proud of my profession, I am - that's why I'm right at the top: cleaning out the office of the head of the firm...
- Ella Muggins: Well, Albert. Here's your magic eye. I'm going to Berlin and I'm going to *get* that Mr. Hitler! What's more, I'm not afraid at all.
- Ella Muggins: My late husband, Sergeant Major Henry Albert Muggins was practically weaned there. Oh, not that he was much of a one for the bottle, you know, but he liked his pint of ale with a bit of pleasant company. Oh, a finer man never lived.
- Ella Muggins: If you had a charmed life, what would you do?
- Millie: I know what I'd do. I'd find my way to Germany and I'd give that Mr. bloomin' Hitler what for.
- Freighter's Cook: It's a bad omen, that's what it is. A bad omen!
- Ella Muggins: What's a bad omen?
- Freighter's Cook: A woman aboard ship.
- Agnes: Remember the whooper he used to tell about the whatchamacallem natives throwing him to the crocodiles.
- Ella Muggins: Yes, that was one of his favorites, that was. You know, he swore blind that when he clutched the magic eye in his hand, the crocodiles turned and swam the other way.
- Millie: Where did he say he got this 'ere magic eye?
- Ella Muggins: Well, he got it from a little Indian girl who - fell in love with him.
- Captain Mack: Now, ma'am, will you be good enough to tell me what you're doing aboard my ship?
- Ella Muggins: Yes. I'm on my way to th continent, sir, for a bit of business - combined with pleasure.
- Captain Mack: Continent? You're daft, woman!
- Ella Muggins: As long as you've got that on you, no harm can come to you. You'll be as right as rain.
- Ella Muggins: Blimey, you are a Gloomy Gus, aren't you. I bet you a dollar he thinks I'm balmy. Oh, well.
- Ella Muggins: I suspect he'll come in there. I'll wait till his cronies have gone. I'll get my pistol out of my pocket.
- Capt. Franz von Weber: Mrs, Muggins, I know its a great liberty, but could you do one more thing for us?
- Ella Muggins: Well, certainly, if I can.
- Lord Haw-Haw: Only Hitler sits in that chair!
- Ella Muggins: There has to be a first for everything. Besides, I have to sit when I think. I've got to puzzle out what to do with you. You know a sight too much for my good.
- Ella Muggins: I'll give him a piece of my mind. Now, let me see, what shall I say? Well, Mr. Hitler, here I am at last. Ella Muggins of Camberwell. London! I was able to come her because I had something that kept me free from fear. Fear of you - and all your works - and all the dirty blighters that lick your boots. I've come here to kill you.
