Quotes 

• Parker : [drinking from a tankard]  Ain't ya got my grub ready yet, Lil?

  [Lil, Lady Penelope's cook, turns to Parker] 

  Lil : [irritated]  What's the matter with you? I've only got one pair of 'ands, ain't I?

  Parker : [laughing]  Wasting your time here, girl... if you got more, you'd make a few bob in a circus, wouldn't ya!

  [Parker laughs more and coughs] 

  Lil : Now...

  Parker : What are you getting for their nibs, then?

  Lil : None of your business.

  Parker : [angrily]  Hello, hello! You wanna keep your shirt on!

  Lil : [snarkily]  Hark, who's talkin'!

  Parker : [laughing again]  Still, don't blame ya not tellin' me! If I cooked like you, I wouldn't shout about it neither!

  Lil : [condescendingly]  Now, listen 'ere, Nosey!

  Parker : [snobbishly]  Hey! Manners, manners! Mister *Parker*, if you don't mind!

  Lil : All right then, Mister *Nosey* Parker. I've slaving over this all day!

  Parker : Oh, come off it, Lil, I was only pulling your leg!

• Lady Penelope : Would you like Parker to take your briefcase?

  Lord Silton : No thank you. It *never* leaves my side, you know. Everywhere I go.

  [a beeping noise emits from Lord Silton's briefcase, just as Parker is carrying a tray of coffee into the room] 

  Lord Silton : Good heavens!

  Lady Penelope : What's that noise? What is it?

  Lord Silton : It's the emergency call system. I am wanted at the bank immediately.

  Lady Penelope : Emergency? You mean the bank has been robbed?

  Lord Silton : It could be.

  Parker : [throwing the coffee tray in shock]  Bank robbery?

  [the coffee splashes onto Lord Silton] 

  Lord Silton : [angrily, to Parker]  You clumsy nincompoop!
