- What do other people say about you?
Maudie: Moth. Moth she wasn't interested.
Maudie: I've had a good talking to by some of
the girls at work today. And they've told me not to let you keep using me.
Maudie: Look at your eyes, they're everywhere,
up every skirt, along every leg, round every bra rim. Why oh why do you keep
chasing women!
Maudie: I'm the only woman on earth interested
in you.
Maudie: You'll try anything won't you, just to
get into my handbag. The romantic approach, the comic approach, the sympathy
approach.
Maudie: You're romantic, like something on a
fade. I love that.
Maudie: Well you can move.
Maudie: Ooo, another trick, you snide, you
emperor of snide!
- What do you say about other people?
Moth: (to a young woman) You're beautiful you.
You're absolutely beautiful you. Look at you. You're fantastic. I love you. I
love the bones of you. I do. You think it's too quick don't you. But you can't
see yourself. You're just... I'm in love with you, I'm not joking. I've seen
some women, but you. Let's get back to what you are, beautiful. Did you smile
or did someone turn the lights on? You are beautiful you. You stand for beauty.
You sit for it too. Look how you sit, like a glamour model, that's how. You...
You're quiet though, but I love that in a girl, love that, don't get me wrong.
You're beauty you. Beauty itself. Beauty is you. You're marvellous as well as
being beautiful too, you. Yes, too good for this place I'll tell you that.
What's a beautiful girl like you doing in a place like this (...) you are a
star, and you don't even know it. A star before you start. Everything about
you's just... You are it. The beauty if all times. You're just beautiful and
that's it. Done, finished, it. Because you are the most beautiful thing ever
brought to this earth. And you're for me you. You are for me.
Moth: Of course I do. (He loves Maudie)
Moth: (to Maudie) what does a princess like you see in a loser like me?
Moth: (to another girl) You're beautiful you. Look at you. You're fantastic you.
Moth: (to Maudie) what does a princess like you see in a loser like me?
Moth: (to another girl) You're beautiful you. Look at you. You're fantastic you.
- What do you say about yourself?
Moth: Im going to give you all I've got left. My final, last and only possession. My dancing talent.

Mr Iger
- What do other people say about you?
Mrs Iger: No, not a try. Get them here. It's
pathetic.
Mrs Iger: But I must say, I must say, it is
another typical cock up by Mr Feeble man. I mean what's to getting to a bar for
a drink? Are you a man or a mouse? Squeak, squeak, there's my answer. You
should do something about this. I mean it's typical, too typical of the little.
I mean, if you were big, big as I wanted, well, well...
Mrs Iger: Ay dear, what have I done to you, my
dinky.
Mrs Iger: Come here my detailed little man. Your
weediness is welcome here. Come away now. Come on. My compact chap.

Evaluation
I thought that the read-through of the script was very funny. I like the banter between the landlord and the landlady, and thought that it was better when Tapz started to put on a Jamaican accent. I like my character of Moth, and I think that I could have a lot of fun with him, but I think that I'll have a harder time portraying Mr Iger as he is more withdrawn and quiet. It says in the notes that the pub and everything in it is going to be mimed, but I would prefer to use props, such as glasses and other actors.
I like that the Landlord and Landlady come on between all of the couples, and their constant arguing, and I like the bombshell at the end, which brings a more serious town to the script. The one part of the script that I didn't like was the conversation between Lesley and Roy. I got really annoyed and angry that he abused her, especially when she mentioned that she had a child.
