How's this grab ya...?

1. "What manner of dress is this, son?"

"Harith, Father."

First hint..."He likes your lemonade"
Second hint..."There is no gold in Aqaba"

What a giveaway!

Well, perhaps the first ever LRDG member on a Brough Superior, John Hume Ross in the RAF and then Thomas Edward Shaw in the Tank Corps.

2. "Pot that fellow, there's a good man"

Hint: "Hookie, that's a flogging offense".

Hmmmmm.
"Stop throwing; those bloody spears; at me"
Possibly from the work set in Africa starring Maurice J. Micklewhite.

3. A bit convoluted but that goes with the literary territory:

"From now on, I don't want anyone to come in to see me while I'm here. Is that clear?"
"Yes".
"Will that be all?".
"Yes".
"What shall I say to the people who do come to see you while you're here?"
"Tell them I'm in and ask them to wait".
"Yes, sir. For how long?"
"Until I've left."
"And then what shall I do with them?"
"I don't care".
"May I send them in to see you after you've left?"
"Yes".
"But you won't be here then, will you?"
"No".

Ah, this could be a 2T and job.

"It's a wonder you're still alive. Will someone get this big walking carpet out of my way?"
