Janey Harper : Merde! Qu'est que tu fous là, crétin! Vous m'emmerdez tous! Vous êtes des salauds et des cochons!

Susan Harper : I've rented a film to put us in the right mood for French visitors!
Ben Harper : What, 'Last Tango In Paris'?
Susan Harper : 'Gigi'.
Ben Harper : Oh, no! Not bloody 'Gigi' again!
Susan Harper : Yes, bloody 'Gigi' again! It's about a young French woman.

Susan Harper : Is it unreasonable to want to share my favourite film with you?
Ben Harper : Yes.
Susan Harper : No, it isn't. You have to like it.

Susan Harper : [about Sylvie] She's very pretty.

Ben Harper : Well, grow up, then.

Susan Harper : [about Janey and Sylvie] I know. Tomorrow, you can take them out together so they can bond.

Susan Harper : Thanks. I was wondering what to do for your birthday.
