Dempsey and Makepeace (TV Series)

Judgement (1985)

Ray Smith: Spikings

Quotes 

• Spikings : Chas, call the editor of the Standard, ask him to hold the final edition front page till we get the photo to him, huh?

  Chas : Right, gov.

  Spikings : It's three fifteen now, he can hold it till four but he won't like it. Tell him if he runs it before we get the stuff to him, I'll push that photofit where a photofit doesn't fit.

• Spikings : Come on you two, don't sit there all day. We've got a murder, two bank jobs, a jewel heist and a gang land war at the office. And it's still only Monday.

  Dempsey : [empties his coffee cup on the grass]  The man is subhuman.

  Makepeace : Actually, he's very upset.

  [calling after Spikings] 

  Makepeace : Now just a minute, sir!

  Dempsey : [adding his support]  Yeah!

  Makepeace : [Spikings turns round]  Dempsey and I are going to bed.

  Dempsey : Yeah?

  Makepeace : Separately.

  Dempsey : Was it something I said?
