Quotes 

• [Sgt Lock is working undercover in a furniture shop to keep an eye on George Mallon who is suspicious when he sees her talking to Sgt Tracey] 

  Sgt. June Lock : What's so special about you?

  George Mallon : He came here to warn you that I'm an ex-con, didn't he? Well he can save his breath because the manager already knows.

  [Sgt Lock does not react to this] 

  George Mallon : Didn't you hear me? I said I was an ex-con.

  Sgt. June Lock : Well, what about it? Am I expected to fall over with admiration or something?

• [Mallon is shown into the prison governor's office, in preparation for his release] 

  Governor : Sit down, Mallon.

  [Mallon continues to stand to attention alongside the governor's desk] 

  Governor : [firmly]  I said you can sit down.

  George Mallon : [insolently]  I'm sorry, sir. I don't realise that was an order.
