Det.Supt.Sandra Pullman:
[Brian opens a storage locker] Brian!

Jack Halford:
Well, say what you like about Bob Ruxton, but he never kept you waiting.

Brian Lane:
Aye, he was a good man. Always had time for a chat.

Gerry Standing:

Det.Supt.Sandra Pullman:
Yeah, well, that kind of behaviour might account for his having been suspended, mightn't it?

Jack Halford:
It's a hard thing for a man to be publicly pilloried after a long and distinguished career.

Det.Supt.Sandra Pullman:
He's not being pilloried, Jack. He's facing charges of negligence and incompetence.

Brian Lane:
Nobody's perfect, Sandra.
