OnslowShe's a real...
(interrupts quickly) Onslow!
OnslowDid you bring any beer?
No, I didn't.
OnslowI'm sitting here, completely surrounded by no beer!
Onslow, Father's on the roof again!
OnslowAsk him if he's got my bottle opener!
Why don't we have a second honeymoon?
OnslowI remember what happened the first time.
Me too. I remember what happened the first time.
OnslowWe argued the all the time.
Not all the time.
OnslowNearly all the time. I couldn't get over that confession of yours!
Well, I thought it was only proper. If we were starting married life, we shouldn't have any secrets.
OnslowBut what a time to spring it on a bloke. On his wedding night! I barely got started on all your new underwear and then you told me.
I thought it was a bit much, you getting straight up and going out for a long walk.
OnslowI had to think about things. I had to decide if I could live with it.
I can't think what was so bad about it!
OnslowYou should have come clean about it before we got married.
You wouldn't have married me.
OnslowYou were lucky I didn't divorce you.
It's not grounds for divorce.
OnslowBeing a Liverpool supporter!
OnslowYou look up at the sky and you think 'That's nice.' Little do you realise it's full of black holes! They can suck you in. Compress all your matter.

I wish we could afford this one.
A strange man in the house.
(looks at Onslow) There's been one here for years.
What are we going to do?
OnslowWell, I know what I'm gonna do. (hits the TV and sits down)
Onslow, you can't just sit there watching telly when there's a strange man in Father's bed!
OnslowThrow him out.
You can't! He's got a receipt!
Why is Onslow reading the Financial Times?
OnslowI like to keep an eye on the economy. A bloke in my position has to wonder how long the country can afford him. If we don't get the economy right, people like me are gonna be in trouble! It's the duty of all of us to be concerned about the shrinking pound.
And when I married him, I thought he was just a sex symbol.
