Closed Circuit

[first lines]

Mother:
[walking in a busy market square] You really will have to rethink your lifestyle, you know?

Pregnant Daughter:
What lifestyle are you taking about, mum?

Mother:
Wine only on Fridays. And try to think about dark green vegetables.

Young Man on Cellphone:
[appearing another video monitor] So really, that's the same as saying we'll never see each other again. Well it is. It just is.

Woman on Cellphone:
[on another monitor] How can I do anything if I don't know what you want?

Teenage Girl:
[in the background] She was so upset about it, and I said to her, "Look," I said, "you've got b*obs. They're there, look." Staying in is pathetic when she could be out having a good time.

Devlin:
[viewing site of the bombing] I told you, nothing to see.

Martin Rose:
Nothing to look at, which is different.

Martin Rose:
[at dinner party] Can I sit between two people who hate each other? I like to come as a relief.

Devlin:
This room's bugged.

Martin Rose:
Not like you to be suspicious.

Devlin:
No, I'm just saying. It's routine around here. Confidential conversations are transcribed and filed away.

Martin Rose:
Better be careful what I say, then.

Devlin:
Yeah, or at least speak clearly. For the sake of the typist.

Attorney General:
Look, Martin, I can imagine what you're thinking. How this looks to you.

Martin Rose:
I've made no allegation.

Attorney General:
But if we accept that they - that someone... Then we have to accept all sort of things which are simply unacceptable. And I will not accept that.

Martin Rose:
You really know how to clarify a situation, don't you?

Attorney General:
I'm not even here.

Martin Rose:
Is that going to be your headline?

Joanna Reece:
No headline without proof.

Martin Rose:
You've obviously never read a British newspaper.

Devlin:
Martin, be careful.

Martin Rose:
It's a bit bloody late for that.

Claudia Simmons-Howe:
What if they get us before he gets to court?

Martin Rose:
Well at least we bloody well tried.
