Dominic : Look, Janey, I should just come clean. The reason I'm saving myself is because I have... intimacy issues. My counsellor has told me it all stems from a game of Doctors and Nurses when I was six.
Janey Harper : [Looking guilty as she realises she was the one who he played Doctors and Nurses with when they were six] Oh... J-just out of interest, er, do you happen to remember who played the nurse?
Dominic : No. Her face is still just a blur. Most of the time, she was running around with her skirt over her head.
Janey Harper : Thank god! Oh, I mean, what a pity!

Janey Harper : Ironic, really. Having messed up so many men, I finally meet the man I really like, only to find I've done the damage 18 years earlier. You know, if I could go back in time, I could... no, my skirt would still be up!
