Margaretta Scott: Mrs. Pumphrey

Quotes 

• James : Hello, Mrs. Pumphery.

  Mrs. Pumphrey : Oh, Mr. Herriot, thank heavens you've come.

  James : Flop-bot again?

  Mrs. Pumphrey : Tricki's rear end simply refuses to relinquish contact with the ground.

  James : Ah, same problem. And the same cause I expect.

  Mrs. Pumphrey : Well, I'm sure I haven't been neglectful. He's exercised regularly. Hodgekin takes him for a turn round the garden at least three times a day.

  James : Like that, you mean?

  [looking towards gardener with dog in his arms] 

  Mrs. Pumphrey : Well... yes.

  James : It won't do Mrs. Pumphrey. If Tricki-Woo is to benefit he must be allowed to walk on his own legs. Hmm?
