Douglas Hall : We understand each other now, don't we, dear?
Helen Hall : Yes. Love conquers all I suppose.
Victor Le Maire : Then there is no further question about the singing?
Douglas Hall : None whatever. We're never going to mention it again. The way I feel about it is just because Helen was in a little act that played a few weeks...
Helen Hall : 38 straight weeks, my sweetheart...
Douglas Hall : Eight or nine years ago...
Helen Hall : Five years ago, my precious. Exactly five...
