Colleen : [to Emily] Perhaps that's the reason people like your singing - because it's the only time you're not talking, love.
-
[Emily is reading a nauseating farewell speech at Captain Jack's retirement dinner]
Colleen : I wish I had a hearing aid, then I could switch it off.
-
[talking about Captain Jack]
Colleen : He's a slimy so-and-so.
Emily : God, he is. I'm glad I'm not the only one that sees it. He's been leering over the older passengers for years. Some nights, it's like a pornographic version of Jurassic Park.
Colleen : He's got a long way to go before he gets his hands on my velociraptor.
-
Colleen : What a night, eh, Emily dear? First you lose a grand and now someone's smacking your bitch up.
-
Emily : It's a special dinner for old friends.
Jack : Actually, Emily these are my friends.
Emily : Yeah well, they're certainly old.
Justin : [laughing] Savage as usual, Emsy.
Colleen : Who the bloody held do you think you are?
Emily : Who am I, babes?
[pretends to think]
Emily : Umm. I'm the most in demand lounge entertainment on the North Sea. I'm known in every port across Northern Europe.
Colleen : Oh, popular round the docks, are you? We used to have a name for girls like that.
Hilda : "Dirty girls!" That's what mother said.
-
Jack : Well, hello, girls.
Colleen : That's right, girls, don't lose your dignity. He could be riddled, this one. You know, sailors usually are.
Hilda : If we get shipwrecked, I'm more than happy to make a fishing net out of my pantyhose.
Mildred : I don't wear any.
Jack : Then I'll get us out onto the ocean like my very life depended on it.
Colleen : Oh sorry, sorry, couldn't quite hear you for the sound of my skin crawling.
-
Security Guard : Welcome to the Empress of the Tynes, ladies. Are you taking any drugs on board?
Mildred : Only the ones that keep me alive. Plus a couple of things for when I get bored.
Colleen : Forget Cocaine Sally here. Come on, let's get to the bar; let's get the champagne open!
