- Siegfried Farnon: Yes, I was hoping you could offer me something a little more nuanced.
- Tristan Farnon: I'm dressed as an elf and my date for the evening is a donkey.
- Siegfried Farnon: Let's forget we ever had this conversation, shall we?
- Tristan Farnon: Not a chance.
- James Herriot: She's getting married to Hugh tomorrow.
- Anne Chapman: And yet here she is, night before her wedding, up in the high dales with your sorry-looking face.
- Tristan Farnon: Oh no, I'm sorry. I can't do this.
- Mrs Hall: Tristan?
- Tristan Farnon: No, I can't be the only one *dying* to know what on earth *happened*...
- Siegfried Farnon: There is a *time* and a *place*...
- Tristan Farnon: With Suzie's puppies! What on earth did you think I was going to say?
- Tristan Farnon: Staying for the wedding or is it all too heartbreaking?
- James Herriot: I couldn't be happier for Helen... and Hugh.
- Tristan Farnon: Don't you just sound it.
- Helen Alderson: I thought you were going home.
- James Herriot: Something inside said I should be here.
- Siegfried Farnon: It's a terrible parasite, you know. Mistletoe. Clings onto a tree-suffocates it-sucks the life out of it.
- Siegfried Farnon: Interesting given its association with romance, wouldn't you say?
- Dorothy: I hadn't thought about it before.
- Siegfried Farnon: Not that I think it's an apt metaphor for a relationship per se, it's just, you know, ironic really.
- Dorothy: Right. I might just see if Audrey needs some help...
- Siegfried Farnon: Yes, I should..um...
- Helen Alderson: Did you see the way she were looking at him? They're still so...
- James Herriot: Full of love?
- Maggie: [about Tristan expecting a kiss from her in standing under the mistletoe next to James] Don't know why you're lookin' at me. It's you pair that are under it.
- Siegfried Farnon: [in his nervousness about approaching Dorothy] I must say, that while the flesh is willing, the spirit slightly lacks.
- Mrs Hall: The less I hear about your willing flesh, the better for both of us.
- James Herriot: [to Siegfried and Tristan upon, at the last minute, pulling up to the church for Helen's wedding] I missed it.
- Tristan Farnon: [with a mischievous grin] Oh, did you ever.
