Dinnerladies · Season 2
(after the ambulance men leave an old woman in a wheelchair in the canteen) I wouldn't get too close, Bren, there could be two slap heads under that blanket!
Do you mean smackheads?
There could be two drug addicts under that blanket, ready to leap out!
Jean: They'd have to be pretty small!
They are small! Once people are on heroin, square meals fly out of the window, it was in the Daily Mail!
I'm sorry I haven't been a very good mother. You can't be good at everything and I was A1 with a hula hoop.
I'm not scared. I've already had three near death experiences. Do you remember Bren? Oh, no, you weren't there. The last one there was a light at the end of a long, dark passage and Dusty Springfield was beckoning to me with a lovely smile....turned out i'd passed out in the Mersey Tunnel with a drag act.
(about the new uniform, which is a pair of green and white striped dungarees). I'm going to look like a bouncy castle. Children are going to line their sandals up and pay a pound to jump on me.
They did a survey of people who won a lot of money.
Did they?
Ruined their lives in some cases.
Norman?
What?
Shut the-
ACHOO!!!!!
-up!
(about dying) I hope i'll end up somewhere with a few like minded folk. Warhol, Dali, Giant Haystacks
Anita, did you get your yoghurts out?
Sorry?
Let me rephrase that. Can you get your yoghurts out?
Do you mean yoghurts as in breasts?
No, I mean yoghurts as in little pots of milky stuff with fruit in, with this being a canteen.
