Muriel Aked: Miss Claire Meredith

Quotes 

• Miss Manningford : They're bathing practically in public, my dear.

  Miss Meredith : I hope they won't ask us to do the same.

  Miss Manningford : I should most certainly refuse. I mean, if we can't bath alone, what is there left?

• Miss Manningford : Everything's all right, then. I'm afraid your friend will have to take care of himself. But, you'll be quite safe here.

  Alec Harvey : You know, I know what my wife's gonna say if ever this leaks out. She'll say I bailed out here on purpose.

  Miss Meredith : Well, we shan't tell anybody. You can be sure of that.

• Miss Manningford : Now, let's see. If we turn out the lights, we can all undress in the dark and everything will be perfectly proper.

  Miss Meredith : Oh dear, I do hope we're doing the right thing.

  Miss Manningford : Young man, if you've a torch or matches in your pockets, will you kindly place them on the mantle shelf.

• Miss Meredith : Oh, dear! What a calamity! After 53 years - this.

• Miss Meredith : Oh, dear. My heart's going jump - jump - jump.
