Nicola Walker: Gillian

Quotes 

• Caroline : [answering her mobile, which has interrupted a snog with Kate]  Hello.

  Gillian : [just getting out of the car, also on mobile]  Right, so... The thing is, what size knickers does your mum wear? I mean, when I rang her, she couldn't tell me herself 'cause she was embarrassed 'cause me dad and Harry and Maurice were there with her, so...

  Caroline : [stuttering]  Oh, I... I don't really... Uh... Could you, um... Uh...

  Gillian : Why don't I just...

  Kate : [mouthing]  Who is it?

  Caroline : [whispering]  It's Gillian.

  Gillian : Just buy a few different sorts and a few different sizes...

  Kate : [whispering]  What does she want?

  Caroline : She wants to know what size knickers my mother wears.

  Gillian : [on her settee with John, where they have both been drinking]  I can't decide... if you're an evil git or if it's actually quite flattering and romantic that you'd go to such lengths and piss so many people off so massively just to have an excuse to come and see me.

  John : None of it. It wasn't... I didn't plan it. And I'm not horrible, just like you... said... about when Raff got annoyed with you. I'm just... disappointingly human.

  Gillian : [sighs and awkwardly strokes John's leg]  Do you want to go upstairs?
