[edit]- Dorien [dressed in a leotard]: Coo-ee!!
- Sharon: It's an OAP from Fame.
- Dorien: He doesn't seem interested. I don't understand it!
- Sharon: Perhaps you're being too subtle.
- Dorien: I hardly think so. When he came round this morning, I opened the door in my underwear.
- Sharon: I didn't know you had a door in your underwear! What is it - a tradesmen's entrance?
- Dorien: It isn't funny.
- Sharon: It is.
- Dorien: There I was, standing in front of him, half naked.
- Sharon: What happened?
- Dorien: Nothing, he took one look at my body and said he'd come back when I've finished the ironing.
- Dorien: He just doesn't know what he's missing, a woman of my experience can show him things he'd never seen before.
- Sharon: Yeah, but perhaps he's not turned on by liver spots and stretch marks.
- Dorien: Well, I'm not beaten yet, I'll have that Bret Warner's amazing technicolor jockstrap hanging off the end of my four poster if I have to prise it off with a crowbar.
