Raff : Oh, Robbie. She's very nice, is Cheryl, obviously, but...
Alan : She's a lightweight. Well, compared to our Gillian.
Raff : You do deserve better, and who better than my mum?
Ted : She's got personality, Gillian. And balls. I like a woman with balls.
Robbie : Listen, I don't want to upset or offend by reminding you about the ins and outs of why me and Gillian fell out.
Harry : Why did you fall out with her?
Alan : Eh. Well, you do know she's a handful.
Raff : More than a handful, let's be honest, she's...
Alan : Yeah, she's trouble, no two ways. Always were.

Alan : [alone, standing at Eileen's grave] Now, then, old lass, I've got summat to tell you. I'm getting wed again. I hope that's all right. I hope you don't mind. I think... Well, we always said life were for living, didn't we? And when you're gone... I just... I hope... I know you were very young when you didn't pass that letter on to me, Celia's letter, and I'm flattered, I'm flattered that you thought so much of me. And I don't regret anything. What'd be point? I don't, anyway. I just... I hope you would be pleased for me. I think I need to know I have your blessing.
