• Gerry Standing : Question: what was he doing on a hippie commune in the first place?

  Brian Lane : How about 'Sex, Drugs and Naked Yoga'? Silly season story from the Daily Star in 2005. Couple of hacks went in undercover to expose free love and psychedelia in Waltham Forest.

  Gerry Standing : That explains it, doesn't it? If I'd seen that story when I was eighteen...

  Det Supt Sandra Pullman : You'd have been digging out your bell-bottoms and love bead thingies.

  Jack Halford : And you wouldn't have told your mother where you were going.

  Det Supt Sandra Pullman : I know you're struggling, Brian... but you need to know that you're not alone. And, I just want you to bear that in mind.

  [Brian is fixating on the beer being drunk by three mates] 

  Det Supt Sandra Pullman : Brian?

  Brian Lane : Yeah.
