[to Lady Beldon who has just entered the railway compartment he is already sharing with Mrs. Miniver]
Good evening, Lady Beldon.
Good evening, vicar. Oh, oh, shopping's absolutely impossible nowadays! You can't get near the counter and when you do, they haven't got it and you pay twice as much for it.
[to her servant]
Sit down, Simmons, and don't snip! [to the vicar] My dear man, I spent the whole afternoon being pushed around by middle-class females buying things they can't possibly afford.
Oh dear, that means me.
Oh no, much worse!
