Quotes 

• Lady Karen Winderscale : [desperately]  Look, Darling, I can explain.

  Lord Winderscale : Please, no more lies. You wanted it so much.

  [he gives the painting to Lady Karen] 

  Lord Winderscale : Here, it's yours. Take it and go. Your bags are packed and ready. Mr Millhaven's two representatives are awaiting your arrival in their hotel in Leeds. I do hope he pays you a fair price for that. Because *that* is all you're ever going to get from me by way of a settlement.

  Lady Karen Winderscale : Look, you can't...

  [to Howard Longhurst] 

  Lady Karen Winderscale : He can't do this to me, Howard.

  Howard Longhurst : He can. Think yourself lucky, Karen. In a divorce court you'd get nothing. I've resigned as your husband's legal advisor and I'm quite prepared to testify to our affair.

  Kevin : You and all? Hell's bloody bells!

  Lord Winderscale : Indeed.

  Lord Winderscale : [shouts]  Morgan!

  Lady Karen Winderscale : You fool! I've got *exactly* what I wanted: one million pounds, and I don't have to share a penny of it with anybody. All I ever wanted was to get away from you - from you and this dead-and-alive place.

  [Morgan comes into the room] 

  Lord Winderscale : This lady is leaving, Morgan, never to return.

  Morgan : [obsequiously]  Oh, very good, sir.

  Morgan : [snarls]  Right, you trollope. Git!

  [Lady Winderscale walks out of the room] 

  Kevin : After all we went through to get it back for you.

  Sally Hardcastle : What the *hell* have you done?

  Lord Winderscale : [gleefully]  That painting is in fact a forgery.

  Kevin : So Lady Muck ended up with sweet FA?

  Lord Winderscale : Correct. And she won't find out until Millhaven tries to get it authenticated.

  [they all laugh]
