Red Dwarf, Series V

Cop:
[to Sebastian-Lister] Come out of the shadows, Voter.

Sebastian Doyle:
What's the beef? Did she steal your lunch box?

Cop:
M... mm... many apologies, Voter Colonel.

Sebastian Doyle:
You know me?

Cop:
Of course, Voter Colonel.

Sebastian Doyle:
Who am I?

Cop:
You are Colonel Sebastian Doyle, Section Chief of CGI, Head of the Ministry of Alteration.

Sebastian Doyle:
Remind me a little: what do we do at the Ministry of Alteration?

Cop:
You... change people, Sir.

Sebastian Doyle:
In what way?

Cop:
You change them from being alive people, to being dead people. To purify Democracy.

Billy Doyle:
Purify?

Cop:
[proudly] No one has done more to purge the ballot boxes than the Voter Colonel.

Duane Dibbley:
So why has he been away for 4 years then?

Cop:
Excuse me, Voter Colonel, but is this some sort of test?

Sebastian Doyle:
Answer him.

Cop:
The rumour was that you had grown weary of your glorious duties and had gone away in secret to renew yourself.
