Trivia | Martin Radley makes a comment about the false name he used when he rang Barbara Everton and links it to the poem "Enoch Arden". This is a poem published in 1864 by Alfred Lord Tennyson, the Poet Laureate at the time. The poem is about a man who goes to sea to earn money to support his wife and family and returns after ten years to find his wife is remarried with a new child. See more » |

Quotes |

Martin Radley: No doubt, but I'm afraid that was impossible. I'm broke, my dear, and air passages are strictly cash. I need £500. Barbara Everton: I haven't a penny. [Martin looks around Barbara's opulent drawing room] Martin Radley: You disguise the fact admirably. See more » |
