Christine Keeler : [elated] Guess what?
Mandy Rice-Davies : What?
Christine Keeler : I got it! A Camay ad! They said yes on the spot!
Mandy Rice-Davies : [annoyed] You don't even use Camay. I use Camay.
Christine Keeler : Don't be spoiled. Come on, girl, we'll go to the hairdressers.
Mandy Rice-Davies : [petulant] I've got a headache.
Christine Keeler : Take a pill!
Mandy Rice-Davies : You know what'll happen. We'll end up in some flat full of black men smoking hash and I'll end up having to walk home on my own.

Christine Keeler : You took me down there. It was you who wanted to go snooping around Westborne Grove at 1 o'clock in the morning. I never wanted to go; you made me. I'd never have met Lucky if it wasn't for you. I'd never have met Johnny, I'd never have met any of those people. It was all your idea.
Stephen Ward : You go too far.
Christine Keeler : Be a devil, you said. Never say not to a dare, you said. You took me to all the parties, you introduced me to everybody I know. I'm yours, Stephen. You pull the strings. I'm what you made me.
Stephen Ward : I'll drop you.
Christine Keeler : Where?
Stephen Ward : I don't know where. I dont know. Wherever you want to go. Vicky's.
Christine Keeler : I cant go there.
Stephen Ward : You say.
Christine Keeler : Well, let's go for a drive. Please, Stephen, take me home.
Stephen Ward : It's over, little baby. It's over.

John Profumo : Do you know what I like about you, Christine?
Christine Keeler : My ass.
John Profumo : [chuckles] Correct. You're always so happy. I don't know how you do it.
Christine Keeler : You make me happy, Jack.
John Profumo : I must dash.
Christine Keeler : You're always in such a rush.
John Profumo : I have an army to run. I have to go down to Leicestershire, stand on the back of a lorry in the pissing-down rain and salute the Territorials.

John Profumo : [they're admiring a painting of Venice] You've never made love until you've made love in a gondola.
Christine Keeler : [regards him for several seconds] I remember a rowing boat. Never a gondola.
[John gives her an amused look]

Christine Keeler : [as car approaches] Oh, Lord.
Mrs Keeler : Who's he?
Christine Keeler : I met him last week. He's a doctor.
Mrs Keeler : A doctor?
Christine Keeler : An osteopath.
Mrs Keeler : A what?
Christine Keeler : He does people's backs. All sorts of famous people.
Mrs Keeler : Ooh! What next?
-
Christine Keeler : Stephen, it's wonderful! You said a cottage!
Stephen Ward : Sure, it's just a little post for weekends. Bill lets me have it for pound a year. I let him cheat at bridge.
Christine Keeler : Who's Bill?
Stephen Ward : Lord Astor. He's very sweet. You'll meet him.

John Profumo : We can't go on like this. You living here, ducking and diving. You must let me find you a place of your own.
Christine Keeler : I've told you, I'm happy as I am.
John Profumo : I can't go on seeing you while you're living here with Ward.
Christine Keeler : Don't be silly. He's not my boyfriend. You know that. I don't know why you don't like him.
John Profumo : He can't keep his mouth shut. He's vain, shallow and empty-headed.
Christine Keeler : Not true.
John Profumo : [firmly] I must get you out of his clutches.
Christine Keeler : He doesn't clutch.
