Strictly Confidential (1959)

Richard Murdoch: Cmdr. Bissham-Ryley

Quotes 

• Major Rory McQuarry : Now, Grimshaw, to work. First things first... now the eh, factory canteen

  Grimshaw : Well? What about it?

  Cmdr. Bissham-Ryley : Much against our will, we have decided personally to sample everything supplied to the workers

  Grimshaw : Oh, you have

  Major Rory McQuarry : Army marches on its stomach, you know. We'll start off with bacon and eggs, kippers, kedgeree, kidneys on toast, smoked haddock, a small but succulent steak with mushrooms and tomatoes and, maybe, a small mixed grill and finish with coffee, toast and marmalade. Then we'll discuss the little matter of luncheon.

  Grimshaw : Oh, you will

  Cmdr. Bissham-Ryley : Our employees are going to be well and adequately fed

  Major Rory McQuarry : We're going to knock the stuffing out of that old canteen, right away

  Grimshaw : You're going to have a bit of a job.

  Cmdr. Bissham-Ryley : Oh, why?

  Grimshaw : Because the canteen was closed two years ago by popular vote
