Clive Swift: Richard

Quotes 

  • Onslow : [from an upstairs window]  You've woken the dog!

    Richard Bucket : Morning, Onslow.

    Hyacinth : Don't say good morning to him when I've just been savaged by his dog.

    Onslow : Less noise, you daft bitch. And that goes for you as well, dog.

  • [first lines] 

    Hyacinth : Of course, I ought to visit Daddy.

    Richard Bucket : Oh, really?

    Hyacinth : It's my duty to visit Daddy.

    Richard Bucket : I suppose it is.

    Hyacinth : Have you ever known me shirk my duty?

    Richard Bucket : Not a single shirk.

  • Richard Bucket : Will Rose be all right?

    Onslow : Rose'll be fine. Rose can handle wives. There's only one thing she handles more often and that's husbands.

  • Hyacinth : Watch the lorry.

    Richard : Which lorry?

    Hyacinth : There you are, you see; you can't even see the lorry.

    Richard : Where is it?

    Hyacinth : Parked! Over there.

    Richard : Why should I watch a stationary lorry parked on the other side of a dual carriageway!

    Hyacinth : I don't think I like your tone, Richard.

  • Hyacinth : How could my sister marry Onslow?

    Richard : Conceivably she loved him.

    Hyacinth : Don't be ridiculous! How can you love an Onslow? He sings on coach trips. I just pray I'm never seen here by people of our own social standing.
