• W.P.C. Maggie Habib : [Inspecting a broken window]  Well it's pretty clear, he got in through the window.

  P.C. Kevin Goody : Unless of course, the window was broken after the thieves gained entry, broken from within.

  W.P.C. Maggie Habib : You mean an inside job?

  P.C. Kevin Goody : Well you've got to admit, it would all fit.

  W.P.C. Maggie Habib : What? That he'd rob his own flat?

  P.C. Kevin Goody : Exactly. Insurance claim Maggie, it's a nice little motive.

  W.P.C. Maggie Habib : All the glass is on the inside Kevin. Do you reckon that after he smashed it, he went outside, picked up all the bits & brought them back in?

  P.C. Kevin Goody : [pauses]  It's possible. If his fingers are cut up, we've got our man.

• P.C. Kevin Goody : I don't want to buy the queen a present sir. She's an anti-christ.

  Inspector Raymond Fowler : I beg your pardon?

  P.C. Kevin Goody : Oh no, I mean anachist.

  [pauses] 

  P.C. Kevin Goody : Oh no no, what's that word for something that's out of date & doesn't matter anymore?

  W.P.C. Maggie Habib : I think you mean an anachronisim.

  P.C. Kevin Goody : Yes that's right, the queen's an anachronism.

  P.C. Frank Gladstone : Well I thought that was someone who was scared of spiders.

  Inspector Raymond Fowler : No, no that's an arachraphobic.

  P.C. Frank Gladstone : I thought that was someone who was scared of wide open spaces.

  W.P.C. Maggie Habib : No that's agoraphobics. They can't handle going outside. Arachraphobes hate spiders.
