Quotes 

  • [Uncle Arthur is discussing the work involved in dealing with the bullion robbers] 

    Philip Calvert : I have everybody breathing down my neck: the Admiralty, the Government, the Americans... and the insurance assessors. Grubby little men with gabardine raincoats and dandruff.

    Philip Calvert : Well I don't have dandruff, Sir, if it's any consolation.

    Uncle Arthur : Yes, I don't think you need demonstrate your questionable attitude to authority *quite* so early.

  • Philip Calvert : [trying to get past an armed guard]  Now listen, you've got to distract the guard.

    Sue Kirkside : [naively]  How?

    Philip Calvert : [starts unlacing the front of her blouse]  Guess.

    Sue Kirkside : [slaps him]  Stop.

    Philip Calvert : All I want you to do is distract that guard.

    Sue Kirkside : What if he doesn't fancy me?

    Philip Calvert : Oh, that's all we need - is a guard that's queer.

  • [Calvert comes in covered in mud and blood, having been beaten up] 

    Hunslett : What happened to you?

    Philip Calvert : I met a wild gypsy girl in the heather.
