Louise Jameson: Eleanor Glasson
Quotes
-
[Eleanor goes into Mrs Tishell's shop]
Eleanor Glasson : Have you got any avocado oil?
Mrs. Tishell : This is a pharmacy, not a voodoo store, Eleanor.
Eleanor Glasson : Sally! I didn't recognise you. Sea air is *really* harsh on the skin, isn't it?
Mrs. Tishell : And you're back.
Eleanor Glasson : Yeah, for Lulu. You know?
Mrs. Tishell : Yes, well, that will be a nice change for Louisa.
Eleanor Glasson : Not before a time, thank God. Poor thing's swamped, and that man of hers - total waste of space.
Mrs. Tishell : [indignantly] Doctor Ellingham is one of the finest human beings I have ever met.
Eleanor Glasson : [cattily] Well, I don't suppose you meet that many. Never really heard the call of the wild, did you?
Mrs. Tishell : Oh, I heard the call! I just chose not to listen. Leave that to the likes of you.
Eleanor Glasson : Life's adventuress.
Mrs. Tishell : That wasn't quite the word I had in mind.

Louisa Glasson : [responding to Martin hollering for her to come] Sssh! Don't wake him!
Dr. Martin Ellingham : [holding up the baby's bottle] Smell that. Alcohol.
Louisa Glasson : No! She wouldn't do something like that.
Dr. Martin Ellingham : What else does it look like?
Louisa Glasson : Well, there has to be an explanation. Doesn't there?
Eleanor Glasson : [enters room] I'll just be off, then. If ever you need a babysitter, you know where I am.
Louisa Glasson : Did you put something in this?
Eleanor Glasson : A few drops of my tonic. He loves it! It's homeopathic - sort of. Been takin' it for years!
Dr. Martin Ellingham : What do you mean "sort of"?
Eleanor Glasson : Comfrey, lavender, mint - bit of apple peel.
Dr. Martin Ellingham : Yeast! The yeast in the apple skin turns the plant sugars into alcohol.
Louisa Glasson : It's alcoholic!
Dr. Martin Ellingham : You have drugged our child!
Eleanor Glasson : I think that's taking things a bit far, don't you?
Dr. Martin Ellingham : Haven't you noticed the effect it has on you? I have.
Eleanor Glasson : [to Louisa] Never did you any harm.
Louisa Glasson : [opens the front door and motions with her arm] Just go - please.
