Peak Practice

[to Sam]

Kerri Davidson:
You've got cheeks like apples... that's OK: green really suits you!

[Confronting each other at a demonstration against plans for a supermarket in Cardale]

Mr. Neville:
I come in peace.

Norman Shorthose:
Come and nearer and you'll be in pieces!

Dr. Andrew Attwood:
[ironically] I suppose that's what Norman calls "constructive dialogue".

Dr. Erica Matthews:
Your consultant tells me you've got a kidney stone. It's a small rock of salty urine that's crystallized in your bladder, brought on by poor diet, too much alcohol. It's nothing to worry about - you'll pass it in your water.

Jim Barraclough:
Richard Watkin had that.

Dr. Erica Matthews:
Yes, that's right.

Jim Barraclough:
He suffered *agonies*.

Dr. Erica Matthews:
Well you can't get a camel through the eye of the needle without bruising a few humps.

Dr. Beth Glover:
I don't want to get married. I'm not ready to bow out just yet.

Dr. Jack Kerruish:
I think you're confusing marriage with cardiac arrest.

Sarah Preston:
In a couple of years I'll have a work record and I can look for something *really* exciting.

Dr. Will Preston:
Like a new husband?

[talking about Jack Kerruish]

Dr. Will Preston:
Tenner says he'll pop the question by the end of the year - and die of a broken heart.
