"I actually prefer this video." "Because unlike some of the others, it shows the sheer bloody pain of it." "And as I always say," ""You've got to split the pod to get the peas out."" "I won't be showing you the rest of this now." "There are copies available both on video and DBB." ""X" certificate." "But I would ask you not to fast forward through the contractions, please." "Because after all, you can't do that in real life." "So anyway, after hours and hours and hours of screaming agony, this is what you get." "Here he is." "This is Freddy." "How'd you know it was a boy?" "Because he's my little Freddy and that's what I wanted." "So, when you go to pick up baby, it is most important that you support the head like thus and cradle him into the crook of your arm, being very careful with the top of his head." "Because this area here is what we call "soft spot"." " The fontanelle." " What's that, Miriam?" "My name's Kate." "Oh, I'm sorry, I thought you were Dr Miriam Stoppard." "So, if you'd all like to help yourself to a dolly from the baby box?" "Dad, would you like to hand them out?" "And then we can take it in turns holding the baby and practise putting on one of these new-fangled modern nappies." "(SIGHING CONTENTEDLY)" "We've, uh, run out." "Use this one." "Oh, no!"

" Here." "Have a plum." "No, you're all right, thanks." " I bet they're off now, aren't they?" " Yeah, a little bit." "Thought they tasted a bit sharp." " Bin still here, is it?" " No, it's..." "I'll do it." "LOMAX:" "It's that blackie cleaner, she tries to trick me." "Can't make head nor tail of her." "Did they tell you what your duties are?" "They said I had to read to you, do your paperwork." "And the rest." " Do you like Tony Hancock?" " I don't know who he is, bruv." "Good." "That's what I told 'em." "I don't want his name mentioned in this house again." "Not after what he did to Sid James." "Sit down." "(CHAIR CREAKING)" "There's some letters here, you want me to read 'em?"

"(GIRL GROANING)" "Yours is all knotted." "Does your mommy not wash your hair?" " Ow, you're hurting me." " No, I'm not." "Right, stop hopping about." "I'm gonna do your make up for you now, and you have to keep still for me." "I did this on one little girl." "It turned out that she was allergic and her eye came up like a red egg." "You wouldn't want that on your birthday, would you?" "All right, then." "That's it." "Keep still!" " All right, that's enough." " What about the mascara?" " I'd like you to leave now, please." " What's the matter?" "She doesn't like it." "Oh, so you're discriminating against me because I'm disabled." "That's nice, isn't it?" "In a room full of kids." "What message are you sending to them?"

"And this!" "Covered in the victim's blood!" "David, stop it now!" " But the murderer is still at large." " Stop it!" "What did I tell you?" "A mistake." "I'll deal with it, thank you, Robin." "Can someone get me down?" "Me legs are numb." "David, go home." "We gave you a chance but it isn't working out." "She did it." "She's the murderer." "Oh, please!" "I don't have a motive." "What's my motive?" "Oh, don't, Cheryl, he's ruined it." "Don't bother coming back." "This is not my last murder." "Should we skip to the coffee?" "Now then, let's get you in here." "Get those straps off, make you a nice warm bockie of milk." "Here, you gonna be good for Mummy?" "George, are you up there?" "Coming." "I was just setting up the Teasmade for the morning." "Oh."
