Quotes 

• Chloe Hewett Wilton : Chris's Dad was a bit of a religious fanatic.

  Christopher "Chris" Wilton : After he lost both his legs, he found Jesus.

  Tom Hewett : God... Sorry, but it just doesn't seem like a fair trade.

• Nola Rice : I want an Aston Martin or one of those vintage convertible Mercedes.

  Tom Hewett : When we're married, we'll collect vintage cars. Just as long as I can have a DB9 with all the trim.

• Tom Hewett : What was it the the vicar used to say? "Despair is the path of least resistance." It was something odd, wasn't it? It was very strange.

  Christopher "Chris" Wilton : I think that faith is the path of least resistance.

  Tom Hewett : Oh, God.

  Chloe Hewett Wilton : Oh, God! Can we change the subject, please?

• [last lines] 

  Alec Hewett : Here we are. To Terrance!

  Eleanor Hewett , Chloe Hewett Wilton , Heather , Tom Hewett : To Terrance.

  Tom Hewett : And all that sail on him.

• Tom Hewett : Chlo-Chlo, do you wanna have a knock with Chris for a bit? It's just that it's 5:00 somewhere, darling, and I've some serious cocktails to start making. Irish! Have you ever had a Cuba libre or a caipirinha?

  Chloe Hewett Wilton : It'd be really boring for Chris to play with me on my own.

  Tom Hewett : It's really boring for him to play with me, but he's a good sport. And anyway, you've got better legs than I've got. Chop-chop.

• Tom Hewett : So who was better, or tougher? Henman or Agassi?

  Christopher "Chris" Wilton : They were both great.

  Tom Hewett : Yeah, I know, but I mean, you held your own more than admirably.

  Christopher "Chris" Wilton : For a while. But as the game goes on, you see how really good they are.

• Tom Hewett : It's taken Mother quite a long time to get used to the idea that I'm serious about her; but, to be honest with you, Mother's always had this funny little agenda for me which doesn't really involve marrying a struggling actress. Especially an American one. But, I am crazy about her.

• Nola Rice : I'd better bring a different change of clothes. I don't think your mother appreciated what I brought last time.

  Tom Hewett : I think that was your swimsuit. She's just used to slightly more fabric.

• Tom Hewett : Merry bloody Christmas!

• Tom Hewett : Something's just changed in her face. I mean, I - we barely spoke.

  Heather : Tom said she looked a bit hard.

  Tom Hewett : Yeah, well, she's always, you know, been a lady of the sauce, so to speak. And I think it kind of runs in the family, but, I don't know, I mean she's still got that "come-hither" look.

• Tom Hewett : My nephew.

  Eleanor Hewett : My uncle, Uncle Tom.

• Nola Rice : [pun]  He was trying to have his way with me over the table.

  Tom Hewett : Oh really! Yeah well, you'd better watch out for this one, he's made a *living* out of hustling.

  Nola Rice : [pun]  I'll be ready for you next time.

• Alec Hewett : To Terence Elliot Wilton!

  Eleanor Hewett : Yes.

  Alec Hewett : With parents like Chloe and Chris, this child will be great at anything he sets his mind to.

  Eleanor Hewett : He will. He will.

  Tom Hewett : You know, I don't care if he's great. I just hope that he's lucky.

• Christopher "Chris" Wilton : I drove an Aston Martin once.

  Tom Hewett : Really?
