Notable dialogue[]
Fiz Brown: "Excuse me, Mr Baldwin. Well if she's Lippy and she's Bolshie and she's tea lady and she's biscuit monitor, who am I?"
Danny Baldwin: "Well you, my darling, are obviously the ex-catwalk model who fell on hard times, did a spell as a lap dancer and then got yerself a proper job. The other girls pretend to like yer but behind yer back they bitch about yer somethin' rotten, and that is only 'cos they're jealous of yer gorgeous good looks."
Fiz Brown: "Oh... Yeah, that's me!"
