S1 E8Alex's Big Day

[to Tom Robinson] I know you. You end up on Radio 6. You fall in love with a woman and have two kids.

Don't worry mate. She says stuff like that all the time.

SLord Scarman

I've seen plenty, thank you! I've spent the night with a mentally ill man who thinks he's a police officer, who you now seem to be entrusting with actual police work. I've seen two of our most brilliant barristers treated with appalling disdain!

I'm sure we can arrange a car to take Lord Scarman home.

SLord Scarman

I've talked to several young, homosexual men, and heard their despair, their dreadful tales of police harassment.

Put it all in your report, your Lordship!

SLord Scarman

The police harassment of sexual and racial minorities is an endemic, ineradicable disease threatening the very survival of our society!

[coldly] Catchy title. Got "Bestseller" written all over it. Now if you'll excuse me...! [turns away]

SLord Scarman

I'll be keeping a beady eye on you, DCI Hunt! [Gene turns back to face him]

Is that right!? Well you can take this home in your Harrods pipe and smoke it! In twenty years time, when the streets are awash with filth, and you're too frightened to leave your big, posh Belsize Park house after dark, don't come running to me, mate! Because I'll be in Alicante, oiled up, skin sizzling in the midday sun like a burnt sausage!

SLord Scarman

If you're quite finished... ?

No, not quite. You can despise us, you can disown us, you can even try and close us down, but you will never break us! We are police officers! We are brothers! We are UN-BLOODY-BREAKABLE! [all of CID cheers and applauds his words]

[to a young Alex Drake] Bye, little lady. Any problems, you just call the Gene Genie.

How come you were there, taking the little girl's hand? That couldn't have happened. You weren't there. You're not real.

I'm everywhere, Bolly. I was needed and I was there.
