Quotes 

• Gerald Draycott : Vivian tells me you're not staying, Wolfe.

  Venetia : What do you mean, you're not staying?

  Wolfe Lissner : Got to get back into town, love. I've got things to do. Listen, I'll take your car, OK. I'm sure someone will give you a lift back in the morning.

  Gerald Draycott : Yes, I'm going back myself.

  Wolfe Lissner : Got things to do, pet.

  Venetia : You are a sod, Wolfe!

  Wolfe Lissner : What can I do?

  Gerald Draycott : What a shame. Still, I hope you'll enter into the spirit of things, Venetia.

• Vivian : Wolfe, I'm so glad you could come, how terrific.

  Wolfe Lissner : Hello Vivian, this is Venetia.

  Vivian : Hello Venetia. Well we're all drinking in here so do come on through. I do wish you'd been here last night Wolfe, some lovely faces came down.

• Venetia : I know his face, don't I?

  Wolfe Lissner : Should do, seen it often enough on telly. Stirring the conscience of the nation, he's an MP.

  Venetia : Well he wouldn't get my vote.

  Wolfe Lissner : It's not your *vote* he's after.

• Venetia : Who's she?

  Wolfe Lissner : Sssh. It's his gaffe. Only a marquis, isn't he. Influencing friends and making people.
