Quotes6

  • Roy: [talking about Philip] It's just, I don't know many heterosexual men who read Heat.
  • Jen: So, what? He's gay? Just because he reads Heat magazine?
  • Roy: Hmmm, well, he's either gay or a woman in her early twenties.
  • Jen: No, no no no no no no. Why else would he ask me out on a date?
  • Roy: Are you sure he meant it as a date-date? Are you sure you're not going along as his 'gal pal'?
  • Moss: If you're talking about who I think you're talking about, then the answer is yes. He is gay.
  • Jen: How do you know?
  • Moss: Oh, everyone knows. And what's more, he's been gay since WHAM.
  • Jen: Why else would he ask me out?
  • Moss: Well, don't take this the wrong way, but could he have thought you were a man?
  • Jen: Oh for God's sake, are you gay? Are you a gay man?
  • Philip: No!
  • Jen: Are you?
  • Philip: No!
  • Jen: No, brilliant, good. That's all I wanted to know. I don't mind one way or the other, you know, I just like being clear. I don't want any ambiguity.
  • Philip: What on earth made you think I was gay?
  • Jen: Well, you know, I can just pull it out of the air. You know, you just brought me to a gay musical, called 'Gay'. You're laughing like mad at every gay reference. Your friends... ALL of whom are gay say hello by tickling you.
  • Philip: Jen, what century are you living in? Do you think a man has to be gay to like a gay musical? Can a straight man not have homosexual friends? And since when was tickling gay? I missed that meeting. Jen, Jen, come here
  • [hugs her]
  • Jen: I'm sorry, I guess you just threw me when you borrowed our copy of Heat.
  • Philip: [bursts into tears] Oh God, it's true! It's true, I'm gay! I'm a gay man. I tried to hide from it and deny it, but I can't, I can't, I can't. Oh Jen, what am I gonna do? I thought I could make it work between us coz you looked a bit like a man!
  • Philip: [to Jen] I don't suppose you'd like to come to the theatre tomorrow night, maybe?
  • Moss: I'd be delighted.
  • Jen: He means me, Moss.
  • Moss: He was looking at me.
  • Jen: No he wasn't.
  • Moss: I think he was.
  • Jen: You're not even in his eyeline.
  • Moss: Philip? Who were you talking to? Me or Jen?
  • Jen: So, what brings you to my lair? Not that I'm some sort of animal. Or, or maybe I am.
  • Jen: And how did it happen, if that's not a rude question?
  • Roy: Acid.
  • Jen: You look like you could do with a drink.
  • Roy: Whisky! Please! Double.
