I do apologize, your Lordship.
I do apologize... You bastard!
I do beg your pardon.
I do beg your pardon. I'm so sorry.
I don't know where I'd be without you.
I don't know why you wanted to hire him, Basil.
I don't think you realize how long it takes to do the menu,
I expect it to up when I come back.
I had two bars.
I have to put the picture up...
I have told you where we advertise.
I have your table over here by the window.
I hear it's coming along wonderfully at the moment!
I heard about lunch.
I learned classical Spanish,

I was hoping that instead of just dumping the bricks in a pile,
I was just think...
I was thinking...
I was up at 5:00, you know,
I was wondering... can you cash me a small check?
I will speak to them again,
I wish they were staying a week.
I won't, dear, leave it to me.
I wonder, could I deposit this case with you?
I'll call the police.
I'll cancel my holiday, do it then.
I'll do it then, then I'll do the picture...
I'll do it. Thank you manuel.

I'll send someone to the town straightaway
I'm afraid he's only just joined us.
I'm dealing with something important out here, Sybil.
I'm going out now.
I'm just off to the kitchen, Basil.
I'm playing golf this afternoon...
I'm so sorry to have kept you waiting, your Lordship.
I'm so sorry to trouble you.
I'm so sorry, it's not all done by magic.
I'm so sorry. He's only just arrived, you see.
I'm sorry to cause all this trouble,
I'm sorry?
I'm sure Manuel will be able to tell you,
I'm sure you'll like it...
I'm talking to Lord Melbury!
I've had a word with Lord Melbury about it.
I've never been in such a place in my life.
If the menus are late for lunch, it doesn't matter,
If there aren't any dustbins to be cleaned out...
If we can attract this class of customer,

Is there any part of the room
Is there nobody who can answer that?
Is there something, anything, I can do for you?
It comes with sprouts or carrots.
It could have occurred anywhere.
It doesn't matter, I'll hang the picture now.
It makes you want to cry, doesn't it?
It stands out a mile, doesn't it?
It was the smallest of accidents.
It was the smallest of accidents.

The guests can look at the picture till they are ready, right?
The list, there! The red... there!
The usual?
The waiter is busy, Sir,
The whole morning?
Their value's soared this last couple of years.
There is too much butter on those trays.

They're going to arrest him when he leaves here,
They're watching Melbury. He's a confidence trickster.
They've been watching Melbury
They've never even sat on chairs before.
This advertisement is a waste of £ 40.
This gentleman's case from the car outside?
This is Lord Melbury's table, you see?
Throw it away!
Throw... it... away!
Throw... it... away?
To be valued by the Duke of Buckleigh, my Lord?
Tragic! Tragic!
Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday,
Turn away some of the riffraff.
Two each! Arriba, arriba!
Two pieces!

We didn't get our alarm call.
We do have staff problems,
We'll be over there, then.
We'll have your bags brought up...
We're leaving!
We're losing tone.
We're making money.

We're only staying till Sunday!
We've given you room 12
We've given you room... aha!
Well I never... Here you are, Major.
Well, can you wait a minute?
Well, don't look at me, you're supposed to be able to speak it.
Well, don't.
Well, have you booked?
Well, how are you, Lord Melbury?
Well, how are you?
Well, I have filled this in...
Well, I was wondering if you could offer me
Well, I'd better put the picture up.
Well, I'll be off in a few moments.
Well, I'm doing this, dear, I'm doing the menu.
Well, I've never seen such tatty cases.
Well, if there's anything else,
Well, it is a personal...
Well, they're in a hurry,
Well, we don't have any suites,
Well, well, well...
Well, why did they put us here?
Well, why don't you do it now?

What else?
What?
What?
What?
What?
What? Oh, that! Think nothing of it.
What? Oh, yes, yes.
What? Que?
What's happened to the old idea
What's the matter, Basil?
What's this?
When a peer of the realm,
When he stays with us, he always sits at this table.
When I asked you to build me a wall,
When I have finished attending to this Gentleman.
When I've when I've...
When you're down in the town this afternoon,
Where are you going? Where are you going?
Why don't you hang the picture now?
Why not? I've just been watching
Why, are you full?
Why?
With a bath?
With the duke of Buckleigh, do you know him?
With the view overlooking the park...
Would 200 be all right?
Would you allow me to offer you
Would you do me a favor?
Would you fetch the wine list please?
Would you help these people to that table?
Would you just pop...
Would you mind filling this out, please?
Would you mind moving to that table?
Would you mind? Polly!
Would you put both your names, please?
Y... a la sala...
Yeah, I only use one.
Yes, and if you'd be so good as to confirm by letter?
Yes, but now we can try and build up
Yes, fine.
Yes, got his head knocked off by a golf ball.
Yes, I should have guessed, Mr. O'reilly,
Yes, I suppose so.
Yes, I'm coming! Wait a moment!
Yes, we have met.

You can't take any risks nowadays, I'm afraid.
You could have had them both done by now
You don't have a first name?
You have luggage, Sir?
You know, one on top of the other,
You know, Sotheby's and all that.
You left your sketch.
You might have found time to cement them together,
You see, I am having dinner tonight
You see, they saw our advertisement in country life.
You snobs!
You stupid, stuck up, toffee nosed, half witted...
You'd like us to keep away from?
You'll get one if you eat up all your sprouts.
You've got all morning to do the menu.
A single? Yeah.
Ah, yes. No, I don't.
Anywhere? Yes, anywhere, anywhere.
