Washing machine cycle times

[oligopoly]

need to wash some clothes tonight before i leave to go away for the weekend. time is critical! what is an approximate time to do a quick wash and tumble dry? 30mins? 1hr? 2hrs?

also, does the temperature i wash it at make a big difference?

This reply is too late now, but for future reference, If you haven't got any clothes where the colour is likely to run, you can bung them all in together on a quick wash which should take between 30 - 40 minutes depending on your machine. tumble drying will then take another 20-30 minutes but if you're planning on ironing them don't let them get too dry as the creases will be a devil to remove, even with a hot iron.
