Quotes
-
Eddie : [Loud] I AM TALKING!
The Doctor : [Louder] AND I'M NOT LISTENING!
-
Eddie : Don't mind the wife, she rattles on a bit.
The Doctor : Well maybe she should rattle on a bit more. I'm not convinced you're doing your patriotic duty. Those flags. Why are they not flying?
Eddie : There we are Rita, I told you. Get them up, Queen and country!
Rita : I'm sorry.
Eddie : Get it done. Do it now.
The Doctor : Hold on a minute.
Eddie : Like the gentleman says.
The Doctor : Hold on a minute. You've got hands, Mr Connolly. Two big hands. So why's that your wifes job?
Eddie : Well it's housework, isn't it?
The Doctor : And that's a womans job?
Eddie : Course it is!
The Doctor : Mr Connolly, what gender is the Queen?
Eddie : She's a female.
The Doctor : And are you suggesting the Queen does the housework?
Eddie : No! No, not at all.
The Doctor : Then get busy!
Eddie : Right, yes sir. You'll be proud of us sir. We'll have Union Jacks left, right, and centre.
Rose : 'Scuse me Mr Connolly, hang on a minute. Union Jacks?
Eddie : Yes, that's right, isn't it?
Rose : That's the Union Flag. It's the Union Jack only when it's flown at sea.
Eddie : Oh. Oh, I'm sorry. I... I do apologise.
Rose : Well, don't get it wrong again. There's a good man, now get to it!
The Doctor : Right then! Nice and comfy, at Her Majesty's Leisure.
[to Rose]
The Doctor : Union Flag?
Rose : Mum went out with a sailor.
The Doctor : Oh, I bet she did.
-
Rose , The Doctor : Hi!
Eddie : Who are you then?
The Doctor : Let's see then, judging by the look of you, family man, nice house, decent wage, fought in the war, therefore I represent Queen and country! Just doing a little check of her forthcoming Majesty's subjects before the great day. Don't mind if we come in? Nah, didn't think you did.
-
Eddie : [realizing that Doctor's getting information that he wants to keep confidential] Hold on a minute. Queen and country's one thing, but this is my house! What the... what the hell am I doing?
[advances on the Doctor]
Eddie : [angry] Now listen here, Doctor. You may have fancy qualifications, but what goes on under my roof is my business!
The Doctor : A lot of people are being bundled...
Eddie : [fiercely] I am talking!
The Doctor : [stands up and matches Eddie] AND I'M NOT LISTENING! Now YOU, Mr Connolly, you are staring into a deep dark *pit* of trouble if you don't let me help! So I'm ordering you, SIR! Tell me what's going on!
