Detective Inspector Purbright
- Detective Inspector Purbright: I know what you mean, Sid. A lot of people are goin' to feel snubbed. If there's one thing they can't stand, it's flagrant un-ostentation.
- Detective Inspector Purbright: [Referring to the victim] Do you know, did he have any enemies?
- Sergeant Malley: Well, let's put it this way: nobody liked him.
- Detective Inspector Purbright: [Sarcastically] Oh, thank you. I do like a big field.
- Detective Inspector Purbright: [to Love]
- [Last lines]
- Detective Inspector Purbright: We are dealing with a cospiracy. Conspiracies are a dreadful thing to sort out. Oh, my God, they're maddening, believe me!
- [Turning out the door]
- Detective Inspector Purbright: Don't forget the fire.
- Detective Inspector Purbright: You do have a way of inspiring confidence, don't you, Sid?
- Detective Sergeant Love: [laughing] I'm every mother's bloody son!
