Victor and Hillary are down on their luck to the point that they allow tourists to take guided tours of their castle.

00:06:27 Half ground, two shillings.
00:10:25 Mmm hmm. Yes, Rose. Goodbye, dear.
00:14:37 That's a boy's name. You don't look like a boy to me.
00:19:04 You were called Hilary because your mother and father were disappointed
00:22:56 You know I shall want these pictures.
00:27:29 Yes, here we are.
00:31:43 Well, so long, be seeing you, as they say in America.

01:14:37 A pity!
01:19:03 Something to me more important than that.
01:23:06 You just can't sit around with a bullet hole in you drinking brandy.
01:26:50 Oh, thank you, Sellers. Open it up, will you.
01:30:53 And the popular measure to take nowadays is to say, well
01:35:05 - Just as long as it takes. - Aha, I see.
01:39:46 You were right, weren't you?
01:43:53 - Oh, I sprained my wrist. - He broke his shoulder.
