Quotes 

• Patrick Taylor : What do you expect, Mister? A brass band and the whole of Bhowani district staff on parade?

  Lt. Graham McDaniel : Listen, I don't want any of that Chi-Chi back chat out of you!

• Patrick Taylor : Where's your hat?

  Victoria Jones : I never wear it, unless I have to.

  Patrick Taylor : But, the sun - it will get you all brown at this time of day.

  Victoria Jones : It's not the sun that makes us brown, now, is it.

• Victoria Jones : Can't you understand anything? Can't you understand how they feel? Or, me? I came back from Delhi ready to love you and I found you were all the things I don't want to be. When I'm happy, you spoil it. When I'm in trouble, you don't notice it. When I want you to do something, you won't do it. When I ask you not to do something...

  Patrick Taylor : But, but...

  Victoria Jones : Don't but me, you fool! You're a snob and you are self-satisfying! And you're, you're a ratty Chi-Chi! And you make me behave like a Chi-Chi too! Now, go away! I don't ever want to see you again except on duty!

• Patrick Taylor : Oh Colonel, jolly good idea, that of yours, you know, what your men did to those Wogs lying on the railway line!

  Col. Rodney Savage : Would you mind not trying to drag me into your mating squabbles.

  [Col. exits] 

  Patrick Taylor : See, it's like that, eh, all open and above board...

  Victoria Jones : Ranjit, would you find a table for us and hold it please.

  [Ranjit exits] 

  Patrick Taylor : Why don't you go to a Wog cinema. That's were you belong, isn't it? Holding hands and chewing betel nuts with your black boyfriend!

  Victoria Jones : Don't you say that about Ranjit, to me, or to anybody else!

  Patrick Taylor : Then, keep him out of here! This is for Europeans!
