Quotes

Jack Halford : That was Liam. The lab confirmed that the scat sample was from a big cat. He sounded quite excited.
Brian Lane : Of course. They've been trying to prove the existence of the UK Big Cat for years. We've just given them the evidence.
Det. Supt. Sandra Pullman : No, you did. That was an amazing bit of detective work, Brian. Well done.
Brian Lane : Oh, any of you could have put it together.
Gerry Standing : No! We're sane.

[first lines]
Jack Halford : Hello. Um, uh, my name's Jack Halford. I've come to sign my will.
Blunt's Recepionist : Ah, right.
Jonathan Blunt : Aah, Mr Halford. At last we meet again.
Jack Halford : [picking up will] Perhaps I should read it through.
Jonathan Blunt : Well, you're more than welcome to, but the wording is exactly as we said it would be three years ago. Have your circumstances changed at all since Mrs Halford passed on.
Jack Halford : No no, no, nothings changed.
Det. Supt. Sandra Pullman : Then sign it.
Harry Hepple : [bursting in] I have to see him now. Right.
[to Blunt]
Harry Hepple : You and I need to talk.
Jonathan Blunt : We have discussed this, Mr Hepple. If you wish to speak to me, you must make an appointment and wait your turn.
Harry Hepple : I have been waiting for ten years.
Det. Supt. Sandra Pullman : Then ten minutes won't make any difference, will it?
Harry Hepple : Excuse me, who do you think you are?
Det. Supt. Sandra Pullman : Detective Superintendent Pullman.
[shows her ID]
Det. Supt. Sandra Pullman : Who are you?
Harry Hepple : The cat is dead, Blunt. The cat is dead.
[Hepple leaves]
Jack Halford : What cat?
