Geoffrey - Director General MI5 : You could hold an inquiry into Sir Humphrey.
James Hacker : Could I?
Geoffrey - Director General MI5 : But I wouldn't recommend it. Not at this stage. Things might get out. We don't want any more irresponsible ill-informed press speculation.
James Hacker : Even if it's accurate.
Geoffrey - Director General MI5 : Oh, *especially* if it's accurate. There's nothing worse than *accurate* irresponsible ill-informed press speculation.

James Hacker : All of them.
