Marnie Madden quotes from The Hour

I'm just glad that with a clever women like you, you do fully understand. He just can't control himself. I think it's the creative in him. Picasso has a heap of lovers. Not that I'm putting Hector on a par with an artiste like that, but there is always someone. And normally I have to unpick their little fingers from his arm. But it is such a relief to finally meet a proper woman. I do like you very much. You're such fun. He's always just on loan. And he always comes back.

Hector

Marnie

Marnie

Hector

You're sure you're what?

Marnie

I'm... three weeks gone. Hector...

Hector

Well, isn't that wonderful? Isn't that what you always wanted?

Marnie

Yes.

Hector

Well, then, aren't you clever, Marnie? You got what you wanted.
