Matthew: Well, can I ask about what?
Charles: No... no... I think, best not.

Charles: Do you think there really are people who can just go up and say, "Hi, babe. Name's Charles. This is your lucky night?"

Carrie: Having a good night?
Charles: Yes. It's right up there with my father's funeral for sheer entertainment value.

More trivia for Four Weddings and a Funeral

Question: Who is Scarlett? She appears to live with Charles, but not share a bed with him; IMDb refers to her as Charles' sister, but her, er, style of talking is so out of kilter with Charles and indeed all the others that it seems unlikely that she's related.

Answer: You'll find the answer in this short deleted scene... https://youtu.be/ucNrqcqM3v0.

Answer: According to a deleted scene, she was found passed out drunk under the kitchen table after a party that Charles hosted and never got around to leaving. She's now his lodger, presumably paying rent and a share of the bills. https://youtu.be/ucNrqcqM3v0.
