  Dolly : Em... no ma'am... we're burning the gravy.

• Mrs. Ravenscroft : Dolly! *Why* is the pudding on the floor?

  Dolly : Well, I put it down there to cool ma'am. There's a nice draught down there.

  Mrs. Ravenscroft : Well, it must be cool enough *now*. The cat's eating it.

• Mrs. Ravenscroft : I swear on my mother's grave!

  Dolly : But your mother is alive! She lives over a pub in Bristol.

  Mrs. Ravenscroft : Well, then... I swear on my mother's pub!

• Mrs. Ravenscroft : Dolly! Get your wretched wiggely little bum in here!

  Dolly : Excuse me sir. If I don't go she'll kill me. Well... I don't mean actually kill me. I was speaking... you know... metaphysically.
