Jonah Lees: Young Eric
Quotes
-
[Eric has just learned that he has won the Jack Hylton audition and will be taking part in the "Youth Takes a Bow" stage show, touring the country alongside Ernie Wise]
Young Eric : Touring the country? When will I see my mates?
Sadie Bartholomew : You'll make new mates - Variety mates - mates with a bit of something about them.
Young Eric : I don't want Variety mates. I've got a gang here - *and* an air-gun!
Sadie Bartholomew : Eric, d'you want to be tied to a whistle all your life, like your dad?
Young Eric : Well...
Sadie Bartholomew : Eric, listen to me. You make people laugh, you're a lovely dancer, and you can hold a tune. But *more* than that, and I mean this as the mother who carried you and nursed you and raised you, you aren't any good at anything else.
