[scene from a BBC documentary about the Thatcher years; cuts between talking head interviews of Margaret Thatcher, Geoffrey Howe and Nigel Lawson]
Lord Howe:
Margaret was never the easiest person to get on with in Cabinet. But there was something about her.
Margaret Thatcher:
We remember Geoffrey coming to us one day with a policy that we didn't much care for.
Lord Howe:
And I said "Please, Margaret."
Margaret Thatcher:
And we said "No, Geoffrey, no."
Lord Lawson:
She was a very sexy woman. I remember going to her...
Margaret Thatcher:
And we remember Nigel came to see us, and he said "You must, Prime Minister. I insist."
Lord Lawson:
I was very insistent.
Margaret Thatcher:
And we said "No, Nigel, no."
Lord Howe:
I said "Margaret, please."
Margaret Thatcher:
And we said "No, Geoffrey, no."
Lord Lawson:
I said "Margaret, please listen."
Margaret Thatcher:
And we said "No, Nigel, we will not listen."
Lord Howe:
I said "Margaret, I'm pleading with you, on bended knee, you mad..."
Margaret Thatcher:
...Power-crazed bint. And we said "No, Geoffrey, no."
Lord Lawson:
I said "Margaret, just listen for one minute, you completely..."
Margaret Thatcher:
...Deranged old boot.
Lord Lawson:
I said "Margaret..."
Margaret Thatcher:
We said "No, Nigel, no. Bad dog, Nigel. No, no, no. You bad dog."
Lord Lawson:
And I found myself on all-fours in front of her, and she literally trampled me underfoot.
Margaret Thatcher:
And we remember very clearly that Nigel was very cross.
Lord Lawson:
It was really quite erotic.
