Prunella Scales: Miss Elizabeth Mapp

Quotes 

• Miss Elizabeth Mapp : I'm sorry, dear one, but I cannot possibly permit it. The ragtag and bobtail of Tilling passing through my house, tramping on my flower-beds, ruining the carpets...

  Emmeline 'Lucia' Lucas : The price of admission will be half a crown, all the doors to the rooms will be locked, and I am sure nobody in Tilling would be so ill-bred as to force them open.

• Miss Elizabeth Mapp : I have contracted all my garden produce to Mr Twistevant. The fruit is no longer mine.

  'Quaint' Irene Coles : Perhaps you could let the Padre have some from Diva's garden, unless you've sold that too.
