Absolutely Fabulous1992
[on the significance of awards]
Eddie:
They don't matter, do they, darling?... Awards, Pats?
Patsy:
Oh, Eddy. We've been here before.
Eddie:
It's just... you know... I WANT one. I don't just want one, darling, I NEED one. My career is on a toboggan run of failure at the moment... I just need one. It's the only thing that seems to mean ANYthing these days... I need one now before the menopause drags me into her gaping jaws. Before my creative hormonal oil-well dribbles to a halt. Before my bottom becomes just a patch-work quilt of monkey glands, darling.
Saffie:
But, Mom, menopause can be a very exhilarating and positive experience for a woman.
Eddie:
Oooh, yes. And the curse is a blessing and childbirth is painless. No. Unless that gaping hole on my mantle piece is filled pretty soon, darling, I might as well... I might as well lick this light-switch and do us all a favour, darling...
