Ernest

Joyce Grenfell's understanding mother:
"Darling, Daddy and I aren't in the least worried about you, I mean we know you're quite grown up and very sensible, and it isn't that we don't like Ernest, we're really very fond of him, and Daddy says those tricks he does are so clever, but we're wondering whether you've thought, really thought I mean, what it would be like to be married to a middle-aged Portuguese conjuror..."
