Philip Bretherton: Alistair Deacon

Quotes 

• Alistair : [about Steven and Penny's plans to move next door]  Look, whatever happened to the big 'O', hm? Optimism! A, they may not even like the house; B, they may not be able to afford it; and C, even if they do move in, could it really be that awful to have them as neighbours?

  [Jean and Lionel look at him] 

  Alistair : I should have left out C, shouldn't I?
