Quotes 

• Melinda Greyton : Joyce, look. I've never seen anyone like him. Never.

  Joyce : Do you think he's attractive?

  Melinda Greyton : Ferociously!

• Lord Pennistone : I thought young what'cha-call-him, young Curragh was going to take you out?

  Melinda Greyton : Well, I...

  Lord Pennistone : He's a nice fella. Bit conservative I suppose but I can't help liking him. Why isn't he here?

  Melinda Greyton : [pause]  I don't know.

  Lord Pennistone : Well don't you worry. He'll be along. Reliable sort of chap. I hope nothing's happened to him.

  Joyce : Father!

  Lord Pennistone : Well, accidents will happen. Dark night. Step in front of a car. Might not find the fella for an hour or so.

• Joyce : I don't see why you want to look like your own mother. It would be different if Major Curragh had a mother complex but I don't think he has at all. Or why would he like you?

  Melinda Greyton : If you'd read as much as I have, you'd know that practically every man in the world has a mother complex.

• Joyce : I've always wanted to come. And now here I am.

• Joyce : A shame we couldn't provide something gayer for your first party in London.

  Melinda Greyton : Oh, I don't mind. You're with me. Really, it's fun to watch in a - horrible sort of way.

• Joyce : You'd have liked Hugh. He seems quiet but he can dance like a dream.

• Capt. Hugh Ladholme : Do you like him, Joyce?

  Joyce : I think it might be difficult to like him. But it would be very easy to fall in love with him.
