Jed Towers:
I said: "look, I believe in a drink, a kiss or a laugh now and then". And that's the way it would be. "Fine" she said, I can hear her saying it now. "Fine, I like to laugh".
Lyn Lesley: I still like to laugh. But not at myself. I just don't want any of it any more. Life's too long. Jed Towers: Alright, I'll send you a valentine. What do you want? Hearts and flowers? Forever and ever? Love? Lyn Lesley: Don't be afraid to say it. It's not a dirty word.
