Episode Quotes |

Elizabeth: I’m really rather busy Hyacinth.
Hyacinth: Oh, that’s nice dear. Now, with regard to what to wear: I think one of us should look attractive in something tasteful and summery floral. What will you wear?
| Rose: I can’t live without Mr Hepplewhite. Not since the tragedy. Well it’s what happens to all men in the end. He went back to his wife.
| Hyacinth: Richard! I will not have you waving in dirty gardening gloves.
Richard: They get dirty when you’re gardening, Hyacinth.
Hyacinth: Can’t you keep one pair for gardening and one pair for waving?
| Hyacinth: Now Richard, don’t just sit there, dear. Wash your hands, change your shoes, and then I want you to go to the Wholesome Bakery where you will speak to the manager about their delivery policy. (Richard gets up and makes his way to the door.) And then you will return here with six superior fresh cream cakes.
Richard: Uh, wh-wh-what about their delivery policy?
Hyacinth: Inept! Point to the folly of their not understanding customers of our social status. Be scathing Richard. Crush them. (Richard nods in agreement)
| (Elizabeth is modelling what she will wear for Hyacinth)
Hyacinth: Oh, yes, I like that. I’ve always liked that.
Elizabeth: I haven’t had it all that long.
Hyacinth: It’s very suitable dear. You’ll blend beautifully into the background.
| Richard: (Asking for Hyacinth’s approval) Uh, this suit?
Hyacinth: Good grief, Richard! Why do you always ask me? I don’t determine what people wear.
Richard: So I take it that’s a ‘yes’.
Hyacinth: Can’t you find a more religious tie?
| Daisy: What are you selling anyway?
Gypsy: Ribbons and lucky charms.
Onslow: Just what I’ve always wanted!
| Daisy: (To Onslow) It’s bad luck not to buy something from a Gypsy.
Onslow: Bad luck! When we live like this how can you be scared of bad luck?

Episode Goofs |
| |
This episode differs from the previous episode, 'Daddy's Accident', in that the china that is used is different; although she never says in the pilot that that china is her 'hand-painted periwinkle' china, she does mention in both episodes that it is a family heirloom.
Furthermore, when chatting in the first episode, she says that she used to have six of them, until Onslow broke one, and then Liz ends up breaking another. Therefore, at most there should be only four cups remaining, yet when she is having tea with the Vicar, we can clearly see five cups.

Visual: Onslow's beer.
In this episode, Onslow is drinking Stones Bitter, which is brewed by a Yorkshire Brewery. Click here to see a newer design of the can.
| Richard: It's not, uh, an excessive year for green fly.
'Green fly' are one of many types of aphids: tiny, plant-eating, insects.
