Just in case no one opens a better one

Ladies

May I join you? I see you have some fine wines. May I have a glass?

First in queue for Mr Porter (done MI5 moving onwards and upwards, sorry Rob!)

Boys! How nice to see you! Let me fill your glasses, and anything else you may care to...

Voice from cupboard:Teri, you promised!

Second in queue for Mr Porter

And who might you be, Mr Porter? Are you a member of Society? No, I rather gathered not, having noted the griminess of your attire and the absence of any manservant. If you do not leave these ladies forthwith, I may have to demand satisfaction.

Would anyone like a glass of champagne?

Elizaveta.... Can I get you anything? Champagne? Canapes? Me?

Bob, I think you might find that your satisfaction is not the main issue tonite
Teri!

I'll stick to the CG ta, champers makes me a bit funny.

My dear LaVieEnTechnicolor. How beauteous you look tonight.

There seems to be an unseemly scuffle going on as some rather (cough) forward ladies jostle for the attentions of Mr Porter and that blackguard Lovelace attempts to eject him and them from the premises. And there seems to be someone imprisoned in a cupboard.

Let me take you away from such distressing scenes. Lead me to the canasta table.

Oi, Peaches I think you'll find I had first dibs there...

Theresa from cupboard: very considerate of you John but I really have to stay here to keep an eye on young Teri

I wanted to reprise my Marilyn number tonight, but that old party-pooper Theresea wouldn?t let me.

oice from cupboard; Guy was only looking at you like that because they didn?t have La Perla in his day

That?s what you think, Theresa.

Oh well, I only ask once.

Ladies, ladies... there is enough Porter for everyone :)

My my, that's a fine piece of art you have over the mantelpiece...

So, Mr Porter - how about all three ?

Oh no thanks Liz!

My act tonight will be in honour of our special guests, Vids do exist, and Theresa says a good scholar must list her references especially for the more obscure numbers, but in case there is no time in all the excitement for you to check them all out straight away, I?ll give you a little crib sheet with the lyrics on.

voice off: I'll try and persuade her to spin them out over the evening and not hog the floor

I hope you're not suggesting what I think you might be suggesting Mr P...

First up,where is Sgt Twiglets? This is for you, Mr Porter

Come to the station,Jump from the train
March at the double, down lover's lane
Then in the glen where the roses entwine)
Lay down your arms and surrender to mine

groan

It seems that LaVieenTechnicolor has been unavoidably detained in the pantry. Oh my! Canasta is such an energetic game. I am quite exhausted.

Would anyone else like some chateau Gizzy? Peaches? Perhaps we should go and dance around our handbags.
