Over Here (1996 TV Movie)

Andrew Lincoln: Cappy

Quotes 

• Cappy : [Eating breakfast in the dining room]  Have you ever thought what a strange name you've got, Butler?

  Butler : Sir?

  Cappy : Well, your name's Butler.

  [laughs] 

  Cappy : And you are a butler.

  Butler : Oh yes, thank you, sir.

  Cappy : Don't you find that odd?

  Butler : Not in the least. I once knew a man called Driver, who was indeed a driver. and another young gentleman called Plumber, who for a living plumbed. Oddly enough you're not the first person to notice the coincidence between my name and my occupation. A short while ago, another gentleman said exactly the same as you. His name was Pratt.

  [Cappy looks away foolishly, another pilot scoffs, Robbie looks confused]

• Cappy : [after Charlie greets Barker, who departs with Archie & Tully, Cappy comes up]  What's all this 'What-oh, Cyrill!'?

  Charlie : He's a family friend, for Pete's sake.

  Cappy : I hate you nobs. What-oh-bloody-Cyrill?

  Charlie : Oh, just bowl the ruddy ball, Cappy, and stop irritating.

  [Charlie takes the cricket bat from Cappy and walks away] 

  Cappy : [Disgusted muttering tone]  What-oh-bloody-Cyrill!
