Freddie Robdal
- DI Thomas: Last night, I had this strange dream.
- Freddie Robdal: You've been a widower for eighteen months, so don't feel bad about it.
- Freddie Robdal: I don't know what it is about prisons. Always seems to attract the worst kind... and criminals.
- Freddie Robdal: Is Reg working?
- [Joan giggles disdainfully]
- Joan Trotter: He had a job but it only lasted a week. They caught him asleep on duty.
- Freddie Robdal: What was he doing?
- Joan Trotter: He was trolley-bus driver.
- DI Thomas: You know, I was hoping that after all this time, your subconscious would let go of its little sea of memories. So let's give it another try, shall we?
- Gerald 'Jelly' Kelly: Shouldn't our lawyer be present?
- DI Thomas: Only if you're frightened of something.
- Freddie Robdal: We used to blow up German battleships, so you two dribblers couldn't make us jump in a haunted house.
- Freddie Robdal: Our lawyer was applying for bail first thing this morning.
- DI Thomas: I know. First thing this morning I called the magistrate, Mr Colinwood, and opposed your bail. I can't release two old sea dogs like you. First smell of the sea and you'll be sailing off to God-Knows-Where. So I'm sorry, boys, but it's jail, not bail.
- Gerald 'Jelly' Kelly: Oh, would that be ex-Commodore Colinwood? Late of the Royal Navy?
- Freddie Robdal: Commodore Colinwood who presented us with our Commendations for Bravery?
- [Long pause]
- DI Thomas: [Irate] Bollocks!
- DI Thomas: I'm looking forward to a nice, comfy Christmas at home, me.
- Freddie Robdal: Bet your wife ain't.
- DC Stanton: DI Thomas's wife died eighteen months ago.
- Freddie Robdal: Sorry to hear that.
- DI Thomas: Thanks, Fred. Not to worry. I didn't really like her.
