- Jane Tyndale: I wonder why Denley was chosen.
- Nora Mumford: You wonder? Because we're a great success, that's why. We're a community working together with no orders from anybody but ourselves. We're a working village that's made itself, as Miss Allen said, a powerful production unit. We're the beginning of something new, make no mistake.
- Liz Ellis: Bravo, Mrs. Mumford!
- Nora Mumford: Look at our record, our production figures. Seven thousand pounds of jam for the troops last year, pure jam, made in this hall, not factory rubbish. Fur coats for the Russians out of the skins of rabbits we breed, fur gloves for our convoy men. Lord knows how much wool spun from the waste we collect from the fences where the sheep scratch themselves, and where does that go, to keep our boys in the bombers warm on their long journeys, and the vegetables cut fresh every morning for the Canadian camp, quilts for the wounded - why, there's no end to it. There's no need to wonder why Denley was chosen!
- Jane Tyndale: Well, I merely made a remark.
- Nora Mumford: Well, don't make such damned silly remarks. Where's your imagination? Doesn't it mean something to you that some of the defenders of Stalingrad kept themselves warm in coats we made with our own hands in this very hall?
- John Ellis: I was just telling this young fella he must come and have dinner with us one evening - kill the fatted spam, eh?
