Then one to Blanche but completely in her style....
Ken (drunk) to Blanche.....
"shouldn't you be knitting under a guillotine, or something...."
Blanche: "You're going to have to start taking pleasure in the misfortune of others, Kenneth, or you're going to have a long and unhappy old age".
Emily: "I wish I was 3 again"
Blanche: "Oh yes - Rickets, TB, rationing, those were the days
Deirdre: Did you say yes to more tea?
Tracy: Sorry, what?
Blanche: She said, "did you say yes to more Steve?" Oops, my mistake
Tracy: Gran, if it goes to court I'm worried that the judge will give the Croppers custody of Amy.
Blanche: What? He's a loony and she's a man. What judge in his right mind would give a baby to them couple of freaks.
Blanche is throwing Danny and Frankie out of her house without notice.
Frankie Baldwin: You can't do that. It's illegal!
Blanche Hunt: Then sue me! (Slams her front door shut.Frankie looks through the letter box)
Frankie: You cannot kick us out of our house you looney!
Danny Baldwin: Get up Frankie. She won't hear you - she's as deaf as a post!
Blanche: I heard that!
Emily, Blanche and Norris are discussing Frankie and Danny Baldwins recent engagement.
Emily: Well, you know what they say. Third time lucky.
Blanche: They'll be lucky if they make it to the end of the reception.

Norris takes issue that Audrey and Fred are interlopers in the book club.
Norris: (to Audrey): “What’s your excuse?”
Blanche: “She’s Mel’s groupie. And Fred Elliott’s her groupie.”
Blanche: (to Ken) “I don’t know why you bother to come if all you can do is moan. Why don’t you go home and write one of your columns about dog muck?”
Blanche: (to Gandalf): “I hope you’ll be treating us to some Hard Grinding this evening.”
Blanche - the sort of stuff you need to know in France is 'where is the nearest CLEAN toilet?'...........
There was a great scene a few weeks ago when Ken said to Blanche "you're uncharacteristically quiet" and Blanche replied "I'm experimenting at keeping my nose out. But I'm finding it a tad dull!".
