• [Mainwaring has fainted upon seeing his wife dressed scantily clad as Lady Godiva] 

  LCpl. Jack Jones : Oh poor Mr. Mainwaring! He'll never get over the shock!

  Pte. James Frazer : No, and neither will the horse!

• Sgt. Arthur Wilson : The movement of the whiffling stick represents the frightening away of evil spirits.

  Pte. Frank Pike : Away from what, Mr Mainwaring?

  Capt. George Mainwaring : This is a fertility dance, Pike.

  Pte. Charles Godfrey : I don't think my sister Dolly would approve of that sort of thing.

  Pte. James Frazer : Arch, ye silly old duffer! It's just to encourage the crops to grow. It's done every spring by the young fertile men of the village.

  LCpl. Jack Jones : Well it's not much good us doing it, is it?

  Pte. James Frazer : [angrily]  You speak for yourself!
