[Captain Peacock picks up the note in front of the ladies' counter]

Mr Humphries:
(from the mens' counter) He's picked it up.

Captain Peacock:
Are you free, Mrs. Slocombe?

Mrs Slocombe:
(going to her counter) At the moment, Captain Peacock.

Captain Peacock:
Mrs. Slocombe, I mentioned your complaint to, uh, Mr. Granger, And he, on his part, also made a complaint, about the view of the ladies fitting room, from his department.

Mrs Slocombe:
What was he complaining about? That he could see, or he couldn't?

Captain Peacock:
Mrs. Slocombe, I, I don't think he's quite as broadminded, as we are. (Gives the note to Mrs. Slocombe) Oh, do something about that, will you? (Goes back to the middle of the floor)

Miss Brahms:
What have you got there?

Mrs Slocombe:
It's a bit of paper. Captain Peacock gave it to me. (Opens up the note) Ooh, it's a note! Pass me glasses, Miss Brahms. (Miss Brahms gives her some glasses and Mrs. Slocombe starts reading the note) "Dear Sexy Knickers, I don't half-fancy you. Meet me outside at 5:30, and we'll get it together." Get what, well, really?

Miss Brahms:
I didn't think you had sexy knickers.

Mrs Slocombe:
As a matter of fact, they're Directoire. Some men get quite worked up about them, you know.
