Caroline Langrishe: Marilyn Fox

Quotes 

• [Marilyn has summoned Harry to fire him after he revealed the hospital trust's part in Ruth's suicide attempt] 

  Marilyn Fox : You know, of course, that your position is untenable?

  Harry Harper : Because I did the right thing?

  Marilyn Fox : [sighs]  Oh, you're not going to be tedious, are you, Harry?

  Harry Harper : Tedious? This is a young life we're talking about.

  Marilyn Fox : Don't do that, either - trying to occupy the moral high-ground.

  Harry Harper : I don't have to try. The bottom line is that I am not going to go quietly, Marilyn, like a nice chap. The more noise I make, the better.

  Marilyn Fox : Well you know what that means for your benefits and pension.

  Harry Harper : I'll take that risk. Because you've lost two doctors in a week. And that looks careless. But then, of course, you couldn't *care less*, could you?

  Marilyn Fox : Don't try and corner me.

  Harry Harper : Corner you? I think your back's already against the wall.
