Woman in her twenties, dead.
Well I didn't think she was sunbathing, did I?!
DS Ray Carling [To DC Chris Skelton] Take my advice, get a pint of Pernod'n'Black down her then do what you like.
I once punched a bloke for speaking French.
[Ordering the hunt for a murderer]
This is my city. And it will be a safe place for my wife and my mum to walk around in. Is that understood?
Yes, guv.
[Sternly] Right. Find out who the dead woman was, find out who killed her. Do it now.
[He checks his watch]
Hold up, hold up. Do it tomorrow morning, first thing. [Brightly] Beer o'clock, gentlemen.
So? He pushed a bird out a car. That doesn't make him a bad bloke.
[Sam gives him a look]
Oh alright, pull him in! I'll dance the fandango on his head!
Roger Twilling, 44 years old, successful businessman, very popular in the business community, gives a lot to charity.
I hate people who give to charity.
Murderers do not play tennis!
Well, this one does.
It's called surveillance.
Doesn't sound very manly.
[Breaking into Twilling's car showroom]
It's freezing out here.
I don't like this. Gene Hunt smashes doors down, he does not pick girlie locks!
We can't just pull him in. He's too clever for that. At least this way we get hard evidence.
I'm gonna be the laughing stock of the Lancashire Constabulary Dinner and Dance, me.
Believe it or not, guv, one day soon, something like this will bring down Richard Nixon.
Hard to believe.
[Chris Skelton is playing around with his flashlight]
Chris. This is serious.
So where do you want this transmitter?
Up here
Chris, bend down.
What for?
Just do it
[Chris bends over to give Gene a step up]
Right, look...
[A police car with sirens on shoots past outside]
[alarmed] The law! The law!
Get down you divs!
[Everyone ducks down, before Sam reappears when the car has gone]
We are the law, you bloody clowns! God help us!
Darling, meet Roger and Carol.
[shaking hands] Hi, Tony Blair.
(Gene Hunt barges into Tyler's sting operation, with a woman in tow)
Tony, who is this man?
This is... This is my friend, Gordon. Gordon Brown. And his wife... Uh...
You know that guy in the Bible who tried to get a camel through the eye of a needle?
That would be ... Jesus.
Well, he had nothing on Mrs Luckhurst.
So how'd your date go?
Oh...I-I won't be seeing her again.
Don't tell me. Upstairs outside and you got a slap!
