Amanda Redman: Det. Supt. Sandra Pullman

Quotes 

• Ricky Hanson : [vile criminal spots his nemesis Sandra entering the bar he presides over]  That's amazing. And here's me thinking I'm going to have to go to bed on my own tonight.

  Det. Supt. Sandra Pullman : [snappily]  Not while there are dogs on the street.

• [first lines] 

  Brian Lane : What's going on? Why are we here? What's the big mystery?

  Gerry Standing : Who cares? There's a tab; someone else is paying.

  Det. Supt. Sandra Pullman : [arriving]  Evening, all.

  Gerry Standing : Oh, evening.

  Brian Lane : What's this about, then?

  Det. Supt. Sandra Pullman : It's December the ninth.

  Gerry Standing : Is it?

  Det. Supt. Sandra Pullman : You haven't twigged, have you? UCOS, three years old today. Happy birthday!

  Gerry Standing : Aaah. Look, the reason men don't remember dates is because they're too busy.

  Det. Supt. Sandra Pullman : Men don't remember dates 'cause they don't care.

  Brian Lane : Why is the table set for five places?

  Jack Halford : [looking toward door as Strickland arrives]  Every silver lining has a cloud.

  Det. Supt. Sandra Pullman : It was his idea, and he's paying for it.

  Jack Halford : Oh, well, in that case...

• Det. Supt. Sandra Pullman : Why are you so pissed off with your son, Ricky?

  Ricky Hanson : You got some front. Who do you think you are, coming in here, talk to me like I was nothing? You want to know where I was that night? Talk to your mates in the flying squad. Yeah, that's right. Oh, don't worry, you can't miss 'em; big, ugly and stupid... just like you.

• [last lines] 

  Brian Lane : Does Jack know?

  Det. Supt. Sandra Pullman : No, we're going to go and tell him; where is he?

  Brian Lane : I don't know.

  Gerry Standing : Well, the last thing he said to me was that he had some unfinished business.
