Quotes 

• [Sgt. Cryer enters the charge room to find it jam-packed with the suspects from the drugs raid, along with a stressed Sgt. Penny, who is taking their names down] 

  Sgt. Penny : [raises his voice to all the suspects in the charge room]  One at a time, what do think I am, a bloody robot? LET'S HAVE SOME QUIET, PLEASE!

  Sgt. Cryer : [to Penny]  'Ere, is that perspiration on your forehead?

  Sgt. Penny : How would you know?

  Sgt. Cryer : Listen, I've got someone to make an old man very happy.

  [Sure enough, Maggie, along with Miss Newnham, enters the charge room] 

  Sgt. Penny : Oh, no!

  Maggie : [to Penny]  Well, if you're gonna be like that, I'll come back later. I don't mind.

  Sgt. Penny : [to Miss Newnham]  Salmon?

  Miss Newnham : Yes, 3 tins.

  Sgt. Penny : All a mistake, I suppose.

  Maggie : [to Penny]  Well, I wouldn't do it on purpose, would I?

  Sgt. Penny : [sighs]  What on earth are we going to do with you, Maggie?

  Maggie : Well, you can start off, by making me a nice cup of tea.
