- Quotes
Maurice Horton: So what's the form then? Do I pay you now?
Caroline Wright: You don't carry that sort of cash around, do you?
Maurice Horton: What sort of cash are we talking about?
Caroline Wright: Well, how much do you think it's worth?
Maurice Horton: It's all new to me.
[picks up his wallet]
Maurice Horton: Uhm, sixty? Eighty? A hundred?
Caroline Wright: Okay, a hundred. A hundred thousand is about right.
Maurice Horton: A hundred thousand? No, no. I was talking about Pounds.
Caroline Wright: Well, so am I. A hundred thousand Pounds.
Maurice Horton: What?
Caroline Wright: You deaf as well as debauched? Watch my mouth. One hundred thousand Pounds.
Maurice Horton: [incredulous] A hundred thousand Pounds for a bit of rumpy bumpy?

English lyrics by Morris Albert
Andreas Katsulas and his crew are excellent and perhaps the comedic high point. Patsy Kensit is always there to feast your eyes on. Alison Steadman is great in her supporting role.
It's interesting how Merk Herman 'weaves' the three story lines together - and it's not just editing. It's a cute touch.
And of course there is 'Venezia' in one of the leading roles as well. It's one hour twenty eight minutes only but it's fun.
