CPS Prosecutor Alesha Phillips and CPS Prosecutor James Steel in “Unfinished Business”

How hard did you try, James?

I'm sorry?

Well, you didn't push him, did you? He gave you the answer you wanted. You wanted him on trial all along.

Uh, I did what George sent me to do. Am I happy to be prosecuting Jimmy Valentine? Yeah, he's a policeman who shot a civilian.

So we make an example of him, rather than let police gain crucial intelligence on a major drug baron?

The police want corruption held to account. You ask Matt and Ronnie. They want Valentine in court. I'm doing this for them.

What if we lose? Valentine walks free, and we've gained nothing.

I won't lose. It's time. Are you with me?
