Margaret Meldrew: What time is your dentist appointment this morning?

Margaret Meldrew: You haven't forgotten were going to Ronnie and Mildred's tonight?
Victor Meldrew: I try to forget were going to Ronnie and Mildred's tonight, like you try to forget you're going to die, but it doesn't work. I wonder what hideous novelties they'll have brought back from their holidays this year? Another souvinear photograph printed on the back of a lavatory seat? I can't believe that pair sometimes.

Margaret Meldrew: Will you stop going on about that bloody pastry every time you fall asleep?
Victor Meldrew: Pastry? Why on earth would I talk about pastry in my sleep?
Margaret Meldrew: I don't know.

Margaret Meldrew: By the way, I meant to tell you, I got another tortoise. I took it round to them this afternoon. They don't suspect a thing, so don't you say anything, right? Let's just let sleeping dogs lie.
Victor Meldrew: I rang her up this morning just after you'd gone. I told her it was dead.
Margaret Meldrew: But she didn't... oh... No.
02x01 - In Luton Airport, No-one Can Hear You Scream Season 2 / Episode 1: - In Luton Airport, No-one Can Hear You Scream

Margaret Meldrew: That's the little café where we used to go for our breakfast. That was our last day in Athens, actually.
Mrs. Warboys: Nice one of the ruins.

Mrs. Warboys: Thanks. [reads] "Arrived safe and sound. Plane trip fine apart from finding dead snake in the flight bag. Tell you all about that later."

Victor Meldrew: Twenty-five years it took to grow that apple tree. I planted it in the spring of 1965. Feeding it, spraying it, mulching the soil, watering it through the droughts, giving it an annual dressing of potash and hydrogen every January. Not one sodding apple.
Margaret Meldrew: Come on, let's go plant another one.

Mrs. Warboys: Umh. This is nice; what is it?
Margaret Meldrew: Well, I got the recipe from my- Oh, how was it?
Victor Meldrew: Yes, very nice, very nice with my grey coat.
Margaret Meldrew: Try it more at an angle. You've got it jammed on there like an aerosol cap. You need it more to one side. [she adjusts his hat] There. Makes you look more distinguished.
Mrs. Warboys: Very smart. He looks like President Gorbachev.
01x04 - I'll Retire to Bedlam Season 1 / Episode 4: - I'll Retire to Bedlam

Victor Meldrew: [singing] Oh Danny boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling.
Margaret Meldrew: You must be in a good mood.

01x04 - I'll Retire to Bedlam Season 1 / Episode 4: - I'll Retire to Bedlam

Margaret Meldrew: Perhaps you should just have an early night tonight. You'll feel better in the morning.
