• James Lester : Cutter's always been eccentric, but I'm beginning to think he's just plain deranged.

  Oliver Leek : Well, I suppose all very brilliant men are a little bit unusual, sir.

  James Lester : I'm brilliant, Leek, and I'm not the least bit unusual.

• James Lester : Leek, has the concept of personal space ever been explained to you?

  Oliver Leek : Sorry Sir, it's from the Ministry and it is marked top priority.

  James Lester : Private sector Public Relations Manager? What am I supposed to do with one of those?

  Oliver Leek : The minister thinks that we need more help with the media. He feels that the situation is kind of getting out of hand. His words, sir, not mine.

  James Lester : The last thing I need is some greasy PR supremo sucking up to the press. This isn't a reality TV show.

  [On the phone with Cutter] 

  James Lester : Let me know the minute it's safe to re-open. And keep in touch. You know how I worry when I don't hear from you.

  [Hangs up] 

  James Lester : A raptor in a shopping centre. How can I explain that to the owners? I think a PR person might not be such a bad idea after all.

• Professor Nick Cutter : The place is clean and the anomaly's gone. You can give the all clear.

  James Lester : Excellent. We'll handle it from here. Oh, good work, by the way. That could have been very nasty.

  Professor Nick Cutter : Indeed.

  James Lester : You know you deserve a rest, and a chance to recover. Take an hour. No, let's not be mean, take two.
