Yes to both. Two points each.

Shayne Parkinson: 18 points (the winner!)
drjd: 8 points
Bookpossum: 4 points
orlok: 2 points

Only one to go. And I thought it was one of the easier ones. 'crooning like a bilious pigeon' rather gives it away I thought!

Ok, the quote without the annoying ellipsis

"Remember that you are a human being with a soul and the divine gift of articulate speech: that your native language is the language of Shakespeare and Milton and The Bible; and don't sit there crooning like a bilious pigeon."
